Google is finally bringing an old feature to the new Nest Camera. Starting this week you can stream live videos A Connect Nest cameras and video doorbells to your TV using Chromecast with Google TV. Google announced the feature Blog post on the Google Nest Community Forum Wednesday morning.

But, as I emphasized Testing my new Nest Cam (indoor, wired)None of the new Google Cameras can cast to Chromecast devices. (All Nest cameras can broadcast both Google SmartScreen And Amazon Echo SmartScreen)

The blog post confirms that “all Nest cameras and Nest doorbells are supported, including our latest devices released in 2021: Nest Cam (outdoor or indoor, battery)And Nest Cam (indoor, wired)And Nest Cam meets Spotlight And Nest Doorbell (Battery). ”
