Android Tvs Getting New Captured On Pixel Backgrounds Report

Android TVs and Google Assistant-powered smart displays are getting a new background collection comprising of photographs shot using Pixel devices. To use these ‘Captured on Pixel‘ images as the background, you’ll have to visit the Google Home settings for that particular device. On Android TV, you can find them within ‘Ambient Mode’, while it’s within the ‘Photo Frame’ menu on smart displays.
