Google has taken the necessary step to retire the name of Google Cast (formerly Chromecast) and make way for a new name and renewal of the application for the retransmission of multimedia content between devices, now it will be renamed Google Home.

Google Home will have a new design in its App

We talked at the time about the presentation of Google Home, a device similar to Amazon Echo.

The application will continue to do the same as Google Cast, relaying multimedia content such as music or videos between the devices that are connected in our home. The news will come from a redesign of the interface, starting with the icon that represents the application.

In the screenshot above you can see a comparison of Google Home (left) and the 'old' Google Cast (right) to appreciate the differences between them. Now the main menu will have two tabs instead of three, simplifying the use of the App. In addition, the search engine at the top that took up a lot of space has been removed.

If you are wanting to try Google Home and do not want to wait for the update to arrive on Google Play, you can always download the APK that is available at the following link.

Knowing that Google likes to replace its applications as it changes its socks in the morning, we cannot help wondering if this will be the definitive application.
