About this app

Create a more organized and personalized 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.

Personalize your home view.
Pin your most-used devices, automations, and actions to the Favorites tab for easy access right when you open the app. View your Nest cameras and doorbell live feeds, and easily scan through event history. 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 with 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 anytime 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 favorites 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 they’re secure by default.

Actually worked for a while there. Decided to upgrade from 1 Nest audio to 2 for stereo. Now google no longer plays music unless I ask twice. Every time! You have to ask twice to listen to music, it seems like the first request only pauses. Then when it does play, the speaker talks over the first couple seconds of the song. Terrible listening experience

No longer able to cast phone to speaker groups! Someone needs to learn to write software. Now I'm told to do a bunch of things I've already done. Still no "cast phone audio" in the speaker groups in the home app. Still broken on 2-17-2022 after latest update. Support suggests stupid things like rebooting phone, when the app is the issue. They really need to learn to read and troubleshoot. No improvement at latest release. Wish I could give it negative stars. 2 updates later, still broken.

Not sure what is wrong with this app. It worked fine for like the first month or so. . . Now, the video feeds to the doorbell cam never load & I keep receiving notifications to check the connection on the doorbell cam (not connected to wifi) almost hourly. Which, is rediculous, after we've set it on it's on router to resolve the issue & reset the entire system back to default. It's definitely not an internet issue as my husband is a Spectrum veteran tech. 😩
