Earlier this month Google rolled out a Stream transfer feature. Now with google’s new stream transfer feature, you can move your music/video which you are watching to another smart speaker/ display in another room. Nowadays many of you have multiple smart TVs and smart speakers in your home.
So if you have multiple smart TVs and speakers, then Google’s new feature called stream transfer will be very useful for you. As you move from room to room stream transfer feature makes it easy for you to transfer music or any other content.
