Once it got Gemini, though, our attention shifted to the older Chromecast with Google TV (CCwGTV) models \u2014 would they ever see Gemini themselves? Well, we\u2019re not sure precisely when this happened, but it sure looks like sometime recently, Google started flipping the switch on Gemini for the 4K CCwGTV.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_mg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(min-width: 64rem) 51.25rem, 80vw\" title=\"gemini ccwgtv\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-64w-36h.jpg 64w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-1000w-562h.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-1920w-1080h.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-1536w-864h.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-675w-380h.jpg 675w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-300w-170h.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-1280w-720h.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-840w-472h.jpg 840w\" alt=\"gemini ccwgtv\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/gemini-ccwgtv-scaled.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Taylor Kerns \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"e_Nt\">Do you have Gemini on your Chromecast with Google TV?<\/h3>\n<p>3 votes<\/p>\n<p>Yes, on my 4K CCwGTV<\/p>\n<p>100%<\/p>\n<p>Yes, on my HD CCwGTV<\/p>\n<p>0%<\/p>\n<p>No, not on my 4K CCwGTV<\/p>\n<p>0%<\/p>\n<p>No, not on my HD CCwGTV<\/p>\n<p>0%<\/p>\n<p>X user @joelenington tells us that he just noticed Gemini on his 4K model running firmware revision UTTC.250917.004 with a security patch level of October 2025.
