What you need to know
- Netflix is rolling out to all Google Nest branded smart displays from today.
- You'll be able to control the service with your voice and the Nest Hub's quick gestures.
- Google's Nest Hub already supports other streaming services like Hulu and Starz.
From today onwards, Google is bringing Netflix to Nest branded smart displays globally, allowing users to sign-in and stream their favorite shows with little hassle.
Once you've linked your Netflix account through the Google Home app (assuming you're in a supported country), you'll be able to hit the ground running with commands like "Hey Google, play Queer Eye" or "Hey Google, open Netflix." The Nest Hub Max's quick gestures mean that you won't need to touch the display while cooking (or washing the dishes.)
Google's Nest Hub already streams from a variety of streaming services including Hulu and HBO Now, it's just that Netflix is one that many people really want — and Google's finally delivering that.
The update is available from today on the Nest Hub and the Nest Hub Max.
