I've seen comments elsewhere that the option to display Google Photos in ambient mode is not there if you turn on "Apps Only" mode for Chromecast with Google TV. Can you confirm?
thanks a lot...this is good info...i tried so hard with third party apps which were suggested by many of the people....i am glad i found ur video today...good work!
I really like the ambient mode feature for a slide show of Google Photos but the most frustrating thing is that it times out and goes off after maybe 10 mins and there is no setting to make it run indefinitely. Bummer.
Awesome tutorial! All the info you need and no "fluff" -- well done. 🌟
I followed every step, but mine will still not show the google photos. Is there something else I need to look into so this can work?
100% this doesn't work if you want to show off your own art work 😅
I cant get this to work either
Turn off app only mode
make sure u have more than 5 photos. It finally worked for me. I think minimum is 5, so when ur under 5 photos it looks for other photos.
Omg! You move so smooth and quickly I'm scared to blink!😮😮😮
Nice video, unfortunately the option isn’t showing any more on my chromecast tv.
correct, needs to be updated is the option even available anymore?
I just checked, my Google TV is on the latest update and I still have the ambient mode option.
You need to dicabel app only mode
Super erklärt. Funktioniert genau wie beschrieben. Ganz lieben Dank!

Does it auto-size small photos to fill the screen to prevent letterboxing?
Thank you so much. You helped us 😊❤🎉
my question is where do you get the google photos app from so you can create pre existing gallery to link in?
On your phone or computer lol

Does my phone have to be connected 24/7 for this to work?
thanks sam. I changed my ambient mode to experimental but my screen saver is still the same. How come?
What kind of Google TV are you using?
THANKS!
Thanks you rock
Ambient Mode says error loading page
After the update (September '24) this option is deleted by Google . . . . (not happy now)
Which option deleted? I can put screensaver using Google photos but they are not appearing 😭
I'm confused. My Chromecast suddenly has personal pictures on it when I reconnected onto my wifi
Could google make things any more complicated do you think?
What do we do if Google Photos doesn't show up on our phone? I have done everything else and this just doesn't show up on my phone...
Don't worked, keep say 'you have no albums in this account' on Google Chromecase but I already have Google Photo album on my mobile
Nice
If it isnt working there is a start “start now” option under ambient mode in the settings. Click that and it will start showing your photos
