If you’re like many Google Nest Hub owners, you use your Google Assistant-powered smart display in the kitchen to set timers, pull up recipes on YouTube, and maybe even binge-watch a little Hulu while you bake. Now, Google has announced that you can watch Netflix on the Nest Hub and Nest Hub Max.

Here's how to watch Netflix on the Google Nest Hub!

Watch more: Netflix is still the streaming giant, having added a massive 16 million subscribers during the recent pandemic. It also has a ton of content, with 371 new original series and movies in 2019 alone. That’s a lot of stuff to watch while you cook dinner. Adding the service to Nest Hub is also a coup for Google, since Amazon’s smart displays can’t yet stream Netflix.

How it works: Google says that once you link your Netflix account in your Google Home app, you can ask it to play anything you want from the service. “Hey Google, play The Witcher” will give you Geralt’s TV adventures, while “OK Google, open Netflix” will let you scroll through and watch available videos. You can pause, play, or fast-forward with your voice, or even use Quick Gestures on the Hub Max to pause and play your video.

Please note: We were unable to get Netflix to work on our original Google Home Hub (the previous generation Google Smart Screen), so if you don't have a Nest device your results may vary.
