About this app

Create a more organised and personalised smart home with Google Home. Set up, manage and control your Google Nest, Wifi and Chromecast devices, plus thousands of compatible smart home products like lights, cameras, thermostats and more – all from the Google Home app.

Personalise your home view.
Pin your most-used devices, automations and actions to the Favourites tab for easy access straight away when you open the app. View your Nest cameras and doorbell live feeds, and scan through event history easily. Set up and manage routines in the Automations tab. And quickly edit any permissions in the consolidated Settings tab.

Understand what's going on at home at a glance.
The Google Home app is designed to show you the status of your home and keep you up to date with what you may have missed. Check in on your home at any time and see a recap of recent events.

Control your home from anywhere.
Google Home for Wear OS allows you to control compatible smart home devices from your watch. Turn on the lights, adjust the thermostat or get an alert when there's a person or package at your front door. Use the favourites tile or add a device to your watch face to make managing your home as easy as a tap on the wrist.

A helpful home is a private home.
Protecting your privacy starts with one of the world's most advanced security infrastructures, which we build directly into Google products so that they're secure by default. And Google uses your compatible devices and data to make your home helpful, but only in the ways that you allow. Visit the Google Nest Safety Centre at safety.google/nest to learn more about how we protect your information and respect your privacy.

Apparently this no longer works with Google Home devices. As of today, it no longer controls lights. It tells me it can't find the device to turn off, on, or adjust the brightness. I've left feedback from telling it to leafy back and attempted to use the length leaf feedback, but the link always errors out saying something went wrong. I've attempted multiple times for multiple devices but it does not work.

Automation Routines for Mobile devices are now completely broken since Gemini has taken over, it only works for in-house Google Home Devices. Pressing play to a routine within Home for mobile functions just doesn't work. No way of easy triggering the routine as the companion Assistant App is now broken as well. When it does work it shows or searches you where to do a function (it doesn't actually do it). Gemini roll out has been really well thought out clearly!

None of my automations are working and I can't delete or copy them because those buttons are behind the time and notification bar at the top. Spotify connection isn't working either. Doesn't see my playlists and won't play any songs because it doesn't recognize my Spotify premium account. Asking it to play a uniquely named playlist that I created doesn't work and instead picks a random playlist with one word in common that I've never heard of or seen before. but they do show up in recent list.
