Google seems to be rolling out a new feature to the 4K Chromecast with Google TV. As mentioned by Mishaal Rahman on X (formerly Twitter), the new feature alerts users with incoming call notifications from select apps. That means if you’re busy binge-watching your favorite shows with your phone on silent, you can now see incoming call notifications directly on your TV screen. Of course, you’ll have to be using a Chromecast with Google TV dongle.
