Revolutionize Your Smart Home Experience with Google Home
Google Home serves as an efficient hub for managing your smart devices, offering seamless voice control and smart integration capabilities.
Create a more organized and personalized smart home with Google Home. The Google Home app allows you to set up, manage, and control your Google Nest, Wifi, and Chromecast devices, as well as a wide range of compatible smart home products such as lights, cameras, and thermostats.
Personalize your home view by pinning your most-used devices, automations, and actions to the Favorites tab. This makes it easy to access them quickly when you open the app. You can also view live feeds from your Nest cameras and doorbell and easily review event history. In addition, the Automations tab allows you to set up and manage Routines, while the consolidated Settings tab lets you quickly edit permissions.
The Google Home app provides a convenient way to keep track of what's happening at home. It shows you the current status of your home and provides recaps of recent events so you can stay up to date.
Control your home from anywhere with ease. Whether it's turning on the lights, adjusting the thermostat, or receiving alerts for visitors or packages at your front door, the Google Home app has got you covered. You can even control your home directly from your compatible smartwatch using Google Home for Wear OS.
Your privacy is a top priority. Google implements one of the world's most advanced security infrastructures in its products, ensuring they are secure by default. Google uses your compatible devices and data to make your home more helpful, but only in ways that you allow. For more information about how Google protects your information and respects your privacy, visit the Google Nest Safety Center at safety.google/nest.
