For example, with this new updated feature, you can now simply tell Google Home, “Play the first episode from the first season of ‘House of Cards’ on Netflix”. Your TV should immediately start playing it for you.

So, how do you set this up? Well, its pretty easy. Connect a Chromecast to the TV over a WiFi network and install the latest version Google Home app on your smartphone or tablet. Along with this, you will also have to link your Google and Netflix accounts within the app, and boom - your voice commands now start working.

Having said this, Google has also brought in one more interesting feature to Google Home that would be a great feature for the holidays. Just say, “Ok Google, show my photos of the Switzerland trip”, and you should be able to see all your photos on a TV connected to Chromecast.
