Ask the Chromecast Voice Remote or another speaker or smartphone with Google Assistant to say ‘Hey Google, let [cameranaam] see on [naam Chromecast-apparaat] and you will see the live view of your Nest Cam or your Nest Doorbell on your television. This was a much requested feature from the Google Community and it looks like Google has finally made it available. The feature was already available for the old versions of the Nest Cam and the Nest Helloever since 2017 even already, but now also for the 2021 versions of the Nest Cam and the Nest Doorbell.
Although it should work with all variants of the Nest Cam and Nest Doorbell according to the official message Google says something else in the Netherlands on the support page. For now, it should only work with the wired variants of the Nest Cam and the Nest Doorbell that is wired. So it remains to be seen if and when it will work exactly. The new feature should be rolled out this week.
Liveview on your Chromecast with Google TV
Unfortunately there is no here at home Chromecast with Google TV to find. In any case, the combination of Google Nest Cam and Chromecast Ultra didn’t work at the moment. So you really need a Chromecast with Google TV. Unfortunately, we have not been able to test whether the battery versions of the Nest Cam and Nest Doorbell already work. Let us know in the comments if the feature is already working for your cameras!
