A Google Home Hub smart display

You can tell your Google Assistant to play your Nest camera’s live video on a screen. To be compatible, the screen must be one of the following:

Here’s what you can say:

Hey Google, play [camera's location name] camera on

[display's name] . For example, “Hey Google, play the

Porch camera on the Living Room Chromecast.” Tip: If you're speaking to a Google Home Hub smart

display, you can just say, "Hey Google, show the

[camera's location name] and it will play the video on

the display.

Hey Google, turn off [display's name]. Keep in mind,

this command will tell your display to stop showing

video from your Nest camera, but it won’t turn your

camera off.

Keep in mind, this command will tell your display to stop showing video from your Nest camera, but it won’t turn your camera off. For more things you can say, visit Stream your security

camera.

Note: Wherever you see “[camera's location name]” in the examples above you should say the name or location you gave your camera when you set it up. To find this info, open the Nest app, tap on your camera, and look at the label at the top of your video feed.

In rare cases, you may have more than one camera with the same location name such as “Porch,” plus a unique label. When you open the Nest app and tap on your camera, look above the video feed: if your camera has a label, it will be in parentheses, such as “Porch (back)” or “Porch (front).” When talking to your Google Assistant, you’ll need to say both the location name and label, for example, “OK Google, show the Porch (back) camera on the Living Room Chromecast.”
