It now prominently shows Google’s “G” logo, as my colleague Evan Blass pointed out last week. On top of all this, the preview firmware no longer shows the original Chromecast logo - which resembles the hubcap-like Google Chrome logo. The Chromecast app and the rebranded Google Cast app have both used similar messages in case of connectivity issues the only difference is that they have used “Chromecast” or “Google Cast” in the places where “Google Home” is mentioned now. “Otherwise, run the Google Home app to choose a different network.” “Check that your internet connection is working,” the error message says. “Run the Google Home app to connect to a new network,” a Chromecast-connected television says. The context of the references is just as meaningful as the reference itself, which proved that the app would be coming. VentureBeat was able to replicate the mention of Google Home, as well find a second reference to it when Chromecast was connected to Wi-Fi but couldn’t reach the internet. The reference points to yet another thing Google is announcing today in conjunction with its hardware event in San Francisco. Last week, someone on Reddit documented a reference to a “Google Home app” in a preview firmware release for the Chromecast.
