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.

Maddeningly convoluted interface. Missing really basic abilities, like adding/editing/removing devices, rooms, and homes. Edit: more research reveals that I probably encountered some edge cases. Still, the only solution I could find was to delete the entire home and set it up from scratch. Not ideal. Appreciate the response from the dev.

the app has gotten so slow...especially to load cameras. Unsable at times. I've tried app cache clear, data reset, and yet it doesn't speed up at all. I have 21 nest cameras within the app now as FYI. I spent over an hour setting up new indoor nest cameras yesterday as it was taking forever to go through each step of the set up, then going into each camera to set up notifications was also slow. Can this be fixed please!

Overall it works, but there are some very poor design choices. For example, creating an automation for my govee lights only allows me to pick a set of pre-chosen light colors that map extremely poorly to the actual lights' colors, and there's no way to test what they look like without saving the automation, exiting, and playing it. But choosing a color for the lights outside of the automation screen offers a full color wheel that maps much more closely to the actual light colors.
