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. And Google uses your compatible devices and data to make your home helpful, but only in the ways you allow. Visit the Google Nest Safety Center at safety.google/nest to learn more about how we protect your information and respect your privacy.

Update: it looks like you have updated the firmware on my chromecast audios, I had factory reset them before the advise not to. i resolved this using a method online to roll the date back to before the issue occurred on my phone and added them back on, this allowed the firmware update to run. I appreciate the email saying the problem has been resolved but as before your contact details are incorrect on play, i got a bounce back that apps-help@ is no longer monitored. thanks!

Couldn't believe it could get any worse, but since installing a new sky max hub, it has become unusable. Cannot add any of my speakers to rooms, google just keeps saying there was a problem connecting. Every time I say goodnight now, it asks to set an alarm, which I don't want. If I use my phone, it all works fine, but that defeats the object of having the minis around the house. Voices keep changing. Everyone in the house is frustrated with the minis inability to follow simple instructions.

Inconsistent linking of 3rd party services. Philips Hue bulbs are unremovable and the Hue account Sometimes links, sometimes doesn't. All work fine on the Hue app, but Home is broken. Sometimes casting does not work. On top of this, customer service is completely unresponsive. A brilliantly rubbish combination. The response from Google is hilarious.... I've been to the support pages and your customer service team hasn't been answering for over a week. Do better.
