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.

Google Home on my Pixel 8 has stopped connecting with my Chromecast device, says Chromecast is offline when it isn't. Chromecast works fine otherwise (with the Chromecast remote). Issue is I can no longer cast from my phone to my TV (e.g. to scroll pics from Google Photos). Yes, they are connected to the same network--Google Home can still turn my TV on and off! I've tried everything to fix it. Very frustrating. Totally confounding.

Google Home has completely streamlined my smart home experience. Voice commands are intuitive, and Google Assistant handles everything from controlling lights to playing my favorite music. I love the seamless integration with my devices, routines that simplify daily tasks, and the quick responses to questions. It's reliable, responsive, and truly enhances everyday convenience. A must-have for any modern home!

Hi Ronnie, help's here. If you haven't yet, try reinstalling the Google Home app on your phone. Also, try clearing the cache of your Google Home app from your phone's native settings. For more help, reach out through phone, chat, or social forums: https://goo.gle/2XkizlG

Like for many others, automation is broken on the pixel 9 display. Edge to edge display rollout is so UI breaking. You are the company who pushed edge to edge and yet you can't seem to even get it right either. I know this goes beyond the scope of this app, but for petes sake please give us an option in Android settings to toggle on or off edge-to-edge display if we don't want it. Because these cases are going to keep happening and we can't be left hanging with no recourse until a new update
