Use Google Home Hub as a Video Display

Using your Google Home Hub as a video display is a great way to watch cooking videos in the kitchen, view movies and shows, or watch how-to videos while working on a project.

To do this, enable your Google Home Hub as the default TV device, and then link video services to your Google Home Hub.
