Google TV Streamer is on shelves tomorrow. Try out new features that help you do everything from finding shows to watch to finding your lost remote.
The Google TV Streamer is officially on shelves tomorrow for $99.99. Our all-new, 4K media streaming device is designed for you to enjoy your favorite movies and TV shows and control your compatible smart home devices. Here’s a look at five of its helpful features that let you easily find the content you want to watch, set the scene for your ideal at-home viewing experience and personalize your TV streamer to do more — like helping you find your missing TV remote yet again.
Find what to watch next, without the stress
Gone are the days of spending more time searching for a show than actually watching one, especially when you’re trying to get the whole family to agree! Thanks to Gemini technology, the latest Google TV features bring you full summaries, reviews and season-by-season breakdowns of some of the top movies and TV shows — which makes finding your next marathon watch that much easier.
Google TV Streamer also uses Google AI and your personal preferences to curate content suggestions across all of your subscriptions, so you’ll always have something to watch that interests you.
Manage your smart home with home panel
Google TV Streamer doubles as a smart home hub, so controlling your Matter- and Thread-compatible devices from one place is effortless. You can check in on your smart home devices with the new home panel on the TV, so you can see what's happening at the front door, dim the lights and adjust the thermostat — all from the comfort of the couch.
You can also cast content from your phone, add it to speaker groups, control music and more directly from your TV.
Program your remote with the new customizable button
Know exactly what you’re looking for? The new customizable button on Google TV Streamer’s remote lets you jump in right where you left off. You can program it to switch to the home panel to control your smart home device, favorite app or another input. You’ll be able to access your preferred streaming service, gaming console or smart lighting with just one click.
Lost your remote again? Try Find My Remote!
If the couch cushions tend to swallow your remote, we’ve got you covered. With Google TV Streamer, we’ve added “Find my remote” for a quick and easy way to locate your remote when it seems to be hiding.
Simply press the button on the back of the Google TV Streamer for less than five seconds and the remote will make a beeping sound.
You can also ask any connected Google Assistant device, like a speaker or Pixel phone, “Hey Google, find my remote,” and the remote will then chime so you can find it.
Too comfortable to get off the couch? Easily access the Find My Remote feature on the Google Home app. Your remote will sound and you can get back to streaming.
Turn your screen into art with Ambient Screensaver
With the new Ambient Screensaver, Google TV Streamer turns your TV into bespoke art. Display family memories and favorite photos from Google Photos albums. Or to create a one-of-a-kind image, use your voice to describe what you want to generate with the help of Google AI or pick from a selection of prompts.
Try all of these features and more with your new Google TV Streamer — available for purchase tomorrow for $99.99 from the Google Store and other third-party retailers.
