Update: can't believe I had to reboot my router to get the app to work properly. Things appear to be back to normal again now. App was near enough to useless. Our Home devices could all respond to verbal commands and play music, the app showed the online status, could change the volume so clearly we were on the same network - but tapping a device to see what was playing or change settings just showed Not available. Devices rebooted, phone rebooted, no change. So frustrating. But working again.

Unusable. Over the last few years, every time I've had to reconnect my Home Minis, its gotten harder and harder. The app just won't detect them. I've now been trying on and off for 3 days, probably a hundred times by now and it almost worked ONCE. And that timed out when connecting. Hate this system so much, this close to putting my money into something better.

unfortunately I allowed it to connect with Gemini. The voices are way to fast and hard to understand cannot fix the speed of the assistants voices. I tried several other voices and couldn't find one that speaks slower. Definitely no good for elderly and hearing impaired. I looked into trying to roll it back to my original assistant but it's going to take a lot of work and having to factory reset many google devices. This app is no longer suitable for those with accessibility limitations.
