Can You Download Google Home on Pc How to Set up Your Google Home can you download google home on pc How to Set Up Your Google Home. Google's voice-activated Google Home speaker will set timers, play music, and spell words for your kids' homework. Here's how to set up the new one you just received. Did you just get a Google Home ($99.00 at Target) speaker for the holidays? This stubby little speaker is about to become your best friend. By yelling out "OK Google!" you'll be able to set timers, play music, have it control a Chromecast connected to a TV, or tell you the phone number of the nearest Walgreens. Here's how to set it up. 1. Plug in your Google Home Your Google Home plugs into the wall and, after a few minutes, will light up and start looking for your phone. There's no on/off button. It's always on when it's plugged in. Stay nearby with your phone. 2. Download the Google Home app from your phone's app store and open the app Download from Google Play or the App Store. Accept the terms of service, and agree to turn on location permissions. Yes, Google's spying on you. By having the Google Home, you're all in. Might as well let it know where you are. Make sure you are connected to your home Wi-Fi network, as your phone will pass that information to the Google Home. 3. Sign in with a Google account You'll need a Google account to use Google Home; preferably one with a gmail.com address. If you don't have one, now's the time to pop open your browser on your PC, go to Gmail.com, and set one up. 4. Don't allow email notifications We don't need more spam. You're going to have to do this twice. 5. Tap the setup icon in the upper right-hand corner Now, tap Sign In and set the location of your Google Home hardware. The speaker needs to do this so it can give you local weather and commute times. 6. Link your music service Google Home supports four music services: Google Play Music, YouTube, Spotify, and Pandora. To get the most out of it, you need a Google Play Music or Spotify premium account. Those will let you request specific songs and albums. With the free services, you'll only be able to listen to themed stations or artist mixes. Google Home can't access your purchased or local music libraries. 7. Step through the tutorial Now you'll get some tips on how to use the Google Home, and fun things to ask it. My daughter likes to ask it how to spell words when she's doing her homework. 8. Tap the left-hand menu button, then More Settings Let's set up some of the optional features on the Google Home. You can get to them through the menu accessed by tapping the three-line icon in the upper left hand corner. Tap More settings to see the full list. 9. Change your news and My Day settings When you say "listen to the news" or "tell me about my day," you can get customized information from your Google Home. Tapping News, then Customize, lets you change your news sources—for instance, from NPR to Fox News. Tapping My Day lets you change a few options in the daily briefing. 10. Change what the Google Home calls you Scroll all the way down and choose "Personal Info," then "Nickname," to change what Google Home calls you and how to pronounce it. Yes, you can have it call you "Boss" or "Colonel." 11. Enter your commute locations If you want the Google Home to give you accurate commute times, under "Personal info," choose "Home & work locations." Enter the address of your home and office. Then you can ask it "how long is my commute?" 12. Add home electronics Google Home is compatible with Philips Hue lightbulbs ($32.95 at Amazon) , Nest thermostats, Samsung SmartThings, and Chromecasts. Tap Home Control to add a new Nest, Hue or SmartThings device. For you to add or control these items, they all have to be on the same Wi-Fi network. 13. Add Chromecast devices Google Home needs a Chromecast ($29.98 at Walmart) , or a Chromecast-compatible TV, to control your TV. Plug your Chromecast into the TV and switch to the appropriate input. When the Chromecast tells you on the TV to switch to the Google Home app, tap the "devices" icon at the upper right-hand corner of the main screen to set up the Chromecast. You'll need to tie it to the same Google account used by your Google Home. You can then use your voice to control various music, video, and photo services, like "OK Google, play Christmas music" via Spotify or Google Play Music or "OK Google, play Stranger Things " via Netflix. 14. Control Google Home by voice and touch Curious about what to ask? Look in your Google Home app. Tap the menu button on the upper left and choose "What can you do?" for some suggestions. To change the volume, make a dialing motion on the top surface of the Google Home, or say, "OK Google, volume " and a number from one to 11. Have fun chatting with Google! Google Home for PC.

  • Chromebooks + Chromecast in the Classroom
    CHROMEBOOKS + CHROMECAST IN THE CLASSROOM As more Chromebook™ models enter the market, it’s becoming harder for schools to choose the best one to meet their needs. Which one has the power to run the latest online educational content such as Kno™ online textbooks and BioDigital Human™? Which one offers the best visual experience when using Chromecast™ in the classroom? Each model delivers a different experience for teachers teaching and students learning in the classroom. Here in the Principled Technologies labs, we put on our teacher hats and looked at an Intel® Core™ i3 processor-powered Chromebook and an ARM® processor-based Chromebook. We performed tasks a science teacher might include while giving a lesson in the classroom, such as using a Kno online textbook and looking at different 3D anatomy models in BioDigital Human. We measured aspects of user experience that would matter to students and teachers—time to complete tasks and frame rate. Which Chromebook is the better choice for teaching in the classroom? We found that the Intel Core i3 processor-powered Chromebook outperformed the ARM processor-based Chromebook across the board, delivering up to 250.0 percent more frames per second than the ARM processor-based Chromebook when using BioDigital Human with Chromecast. The Intel Core i3 processor-powered Chromebook also took just over half the time to complete a series of tasks, including opening BioDigital Human over 22 seconds faster than the ARM processor-based Chromebook. OCTOBER 2014 A PRINCIPLED TECHNOLOGIES TEST REPORT Commissioned by Intel Corp. WHICH PROCESSOR IS IN YOUR CHROMEBOOK? There are many different Chromebooks on the market.

  • Google Introduces Home Audio Streaming Service, Google Cast 6 January 2015, by Tracey Lien, Los Angeles Times
    Google introduces home audio streaming service, Google Cast 6 January 2015, by Tracey Lien, Los Angeles Times Google unveiled Google Cast for audio on Monday, a new service that streams music to home audio players via smartphones. The audio service uses the same technology behind Chromecast, a small device that plugs into televisions and lets people access digital programs such as YouTube and Netflix. With Cast, people choose a home speaker with the same embedded technology and use their phone to send music to it. The service works with only Google Cast Ready speakers, which are slated to launch in the U.S. in the spring from brands like Sony, LLG and HEOS by Denon. Music can be streamed from apps like Deezer, Google Play Music, iHeartRadio, NPR One, Pandora, Rdio and more. Spotify is notably missing from the list. The launch of Google Cast pits Google against Apple's AirPlay, which has been able to stream audio and other content wirelessly from Apple's mobile devices to Apple TV and other AirPlay- enabled devices. It also will compete against the popular Sonos audio systems. ©2015 Los Angeles Times Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC APA citation: Google introduces home audio streaming service, Google Cast (2015, January 6) retrieved 29 September 2021 from https://phys.org/news/2015-01-google-home-audio-streaming.html This document is subject to copyright.

  • Google Cast for Education J. Stergis, Last Rev. 9-21-17
    Google Cast for Education What does it do? It allows students to "cast" their Chromebook screens onto a teacher's computer. Basically it's an easy way for students to present something to the class assuming the teacher's computer is connected to a projector. How does it work? As a teacher, you would launch the "Google Cast for Education" extension from within Google Chrome. When launched, it allows you to name your device (Room 301, for example) and select students that can see it to cast to it. You can individually select students or you can add an entire class from Google Classroom. When a student connects, you will get a box asking you to allow or reject, then their screen will appear full screen on your computer (and, by extension, on the projector). It even seemed to work well with audio and video when I tried it out. Any Caveats? Just one that I've discovered so far: It won't work across VLANs. This means that you need to use a district laptop on the CBRSD-Academic network for Chromebooks to see it. Are there steps available that show how to set it up? Yes, you'll find them here: https://support.google.com/edu/castforedu#setup I have already added the extension to all teacher Google Accounts, so make sure you sign into the Chrome browser then you can start on step 4 of those instructions. Or, follow along here: To sign into Chrome: 1. Open Chrome. 2. In the top right, click the button with your name or People .
