One thing I can say: you don't turn a modern TV set on or off from its AC
plug. They are powered up, in a low-power state, all the time. There are,
however, many TV sets that interact with the internet in various ways,
including some of them that run Android and its TalkBack screen reader for
access to menus, program guides, etc.
Good luck in your research.

Subject: google home and chrom cast
Hi:
Isome friends are still here on the list,maybe some one could help
I have been to best buy regarding google home and chrome cast and each time
I go I get a different answer.
So, if some one here has one, mmaybe some help
If I have chrome cast and google home installedproperley
If I buy a smart plug for the ac outlet, can I just speak to google and say
turn tv on
As above and chrome cast connected to the computer, can I ask google to turn
to a tv tvstation (cable)
If I have the spotafy app, can I request a song to be played through the
google home
If I have a movie app and or a utube app, can I ask google for a movie or a
utube by name
I have been told google home includes chrome cast and I have also been told
I need to purchase chrome cast
Other then turning on and off home door locks, lights and soon, is there
anything else I could do as a total blind chap, and very old, (smile)
Sometimes when you go in a store, even you tell them your are blind, they
seem to think this guy can really ssee.
I do have yifi
Sorry for the ramble, but, I think only one who is blind can help and I
appreciate all who help
Don
