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.

Very disappointed in how this works with Nest thermostat. I want to be able to program it from to be off for 2+ days while I'm away and go back to the regular schedule before my return. It's ridiculous that you can only hold it at a certain temperature for 24 hours at a time through the app. I don't want to have to delete my current schedule to do this for a few days away. Shouldn't have to set alarms on my phone to remind me to hold every 24 hours, or to turn heat back up before I return! ☹️

The app usually works pretty decent but it must not sync up well with devices. I have to ask my Google devices 2-4 times to get a valid response. It has REALLY gone downhill in quality. It's kind of at the point now where it's almost just easier for me to open my phone and do whatever then ask Google whatever multiple times, hopeful one of them will work. It did start working better when I switched back to the old Google Assistant instead of Gemini, a LOT better

Says wifi network offline when it isn't offline. I get several alerts per day about this since the update. When I click on my devices, they all say offline, but if I run a speed test, they are all fine , and then the devices are online again for a little while. I set a camera up to watch my modem and router. The lights never change, which tells me it has to be this app. How can I revert to the old version?
