How to Stream Disney Plus on Google Nest Hub
Disney Plus has been available on Google Assistant-enabled smart displays since late 2019. You can also use Google Assistant to play Netflix, Hulu, CBS All Access, and HBO content. Google adds another option to stream Disney Plus on your Google Nest Hub or Nest Hub Max.
With the Google Assistant built-in, you'll always get your best and latest shots from Google Photos. Plus, view and control your connected devices from a single dashboard. Once you stream Disney Plus on your Google Nest Hub, you can watch your favorite TV shows and movies from Disney Plus with a better visual experience. So even if you only have your mobile phone with you, it is easy to upgrade your viewing experience to a bigger screen through your Google smart display. This Disney Plus capability is still great though, especially for those of you streaming from a Nest Hub or Hub Max.
Method 1. Play Disney Plus videos on Google Nest Hub with voice commands.
Step 1. Link the mobile phone app to your Google Home app.
First of all, you need to link the mobile phone app to your Google Home app. Make sure you have signed up on Disney Plus first and have your information ready to link to your streaming account.
- Launch the Google Home app on your Android mobile device.
- On the top left corner, tap the Plus button.
- Look for Add Services.
- Select Videos.
- Choose Disney+.
Step 2. Hey Google, open Disney+
To stream your favorite Disney+ TV shows and original movies, you can say your voice command, "Hey Google, open Disney+." You can also use voice commands to manage playback like "Hey Google, play this movie," or "Hey Google, pause the video."
Aside from saying your voice commands and casting the Disney Plus app to your Google Nest Hub smart speaker and display device, Google also allows you to stream Disney Plus using gesture control. However, you cannot use the touchscreen on your smart display to navigate through the app, unlike with Netflix. If you want to use gesture control, enable it first in your Google Home app.
Method 2. Play Disney Plus videos offline on Google Nest Hub via Chromecast.
In some cases, a stable and fast network cannot be guaranteed to ensure smooth video playback.
