Google Photos is now working on 3 of my Android TVs!

Finally. Not so much an update as something that should have been there from the start / working when folks set it up in Google Home all that time ago.

Does this (Google photos as screen saver) work on the Nvidia Shield now?

Still not going to use it until I can turn off the "Chromecast built-in" message. I'll keep using Dreamy until then because I don't want my TV looking like it's in store demo mode.

Can confirm

Sony Bravia

Does it show videos in 4k?

If it does then it's time for me to spend silly money on a Google one subscription

I just tried with NVidia Shield Tv 2017. Works like a charm.

Thanks OP for posting it.

At minute 0:56, many people hasn't realized that the "Play Next" information can be actually dismissed, but one has to move over in order to see the close button.

That's weird. I do have the latest version of daydream but do not have the Google Photos option in the Home app Ambient Mode section for my Android TV. Any ideas why that would be?

Not working for me. Uninstall and reset everything and left beta programs. Nothing works.
I am in Canada.

I'm getting the option for Google photos after I force sleep it a couple times. But I choose a photo album and it doesn't play it at all. It just shows random pictures. really frustrating haha
