Hello!
I am quite new to this. Have tried to do my due diligence before asking in the forum.
I would love the opportunity to have google calendar cast to my TV.
I have a Samsung smart TV, and also a google chromecast - so in my opinion it should be doable, but I dont have the know-how.
What I want is for my TV to turn on in the morning before I get into the livingroom and show todays calendar. (I already know how to get the TV on - and also the chromecast app )
I know there are options for having the calendar read for you by a google home speaker, but I am only interested in having it on a screen where I eat my breakfast.
If there is any solution to this already I appreciate the information, if not - concider this an excellent idea for someone more tech-savvy than myself ๐

Not to advertise Google any further, but this is why they invented the google hub

I was searching a while for a good way to do this. DAKboard looks nice, going to give that a try.
Are you using a free account?

At first I was using a free account, but I ended up paying the small fee for the full version.
I am using it on my bedroom TV, showing weather, calendar and travel time to work ๐

@Jahn_K @Upsilon
DAKboard looks great, but are you able to get this on your TV screen without any other hardware?
I have a smart-TV (and chromecast), and the Athom - and would prefer that to be enough. The more things I need to connect to the smart-house the bigger the risk of something going wrong.
Everything needs to be 100% wife- friendly.

Hi was reading this also I think might be overkill for me.
I have google calendar and just trying to see if Incan show agenda item in tv when it comes up so not whole agenda but just mention when appointment gets close. Can you do this with dakboard or are their better solution with homey. FYI got a lg smart webos tv. I know homey can push mentions on their because already doing this for other things
