Google to link Nest Audio speakers with Chromecast streaming devices

San Francisco: Google is working on integrating its Chromecast streaming devices and Nest Audio speakers.

A report pointing to such integration circulated recently and now Google has confirmed to The Wall Street Journal that it is working on such solution.

Chromecast and Nest, or older Google Home, devices already have a link, allowing a user to control Chromecast with voice from Google Assistant device – but the future functionality looks to be more useful.

In future, with a couple of Nest Audio speakers, one can boost the sound from a TV substantially, with the limitation that it will only work when a user is streaming content from Chromecast.
