You can finally see a live feed of your Google Nest cameras on your TV

 Use a Chrome-cast and Google TV to stream live video from the new Nest Cams and Nest  Doorbell.

Finally, Google is adding an outdated feature to its new Nest cameras. Starting this week, you can use a Chromecast with Google TV to broadcast the video feed from all of your Nest cameras and video doorbells to your TV.

“What?” You query. Couldn't you have done this already? Yes and no, I suppose. The largest screen in your home could display the video feed from previous Nest cameras, including the Google Nest Doorbell (wired), the now-discontinued Nest Cams, and the camera within the Nest Hub Max.

However, none of Google's more recent cameras could stream to Chromecast devices, as I pointed out in my evaluation of the new Nest Cam (indoor, wired).

As stated in the blog post, "All Nest Cams and Nest Doorbells will be supported, including our latest products that were released in 2021: the Nest Cam (outdoor or indoor, battery), Nest Cam (inside, wired), Nest Cam with floodlight, and Nest Doorbell" (battery)

We don't yet know if it will function on other Chromecast and Google TV devices because Google only lists the more recent Chromecast with Google TV as compatible.

According to Google, the new integration will start to be implemented this week. Nothing needs to be enabled in order to turn it on. Just make sure your cameras and Chromecast are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You may ask the Google TV voice control to "show me the front door camera" by tapping the Assistant button. You may also say, "Hey Google, show me the front door camera on my TV," to your Nest speaker or smart display.

To fully achieve feature parity between its new Nest cameras and its older Nest cameras, Google only needs to fulfill its commitment to include a web portal option.
