About this app

Create a more organised and personalised 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.

Personalise your home view.
Pin your most-used devices, automations and actions to the Favourites tab for easy access straight away when you open the app. View your Nest cameras and doorbell live feeds, and scan through event history easily. 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 at 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 at any time 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 favourites 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 that they're secure by default. And Google uses your compatible devices and data to make your home helpful, but only in the ways that you allow. Visit the Google Nest Safety Centre at safety.google/nest to learn more about how we protect your information and respect your privacy.

Chromecast is absolute dogsh*t. Or any device you use to connect to Google Home. It has never worked well, hardly connects to WiFi, hardly wants to cast, once you eventually cast if you're lucky, you can no longer control what's on the TV from your phone even when you try stopping. Never had a good successful experience in over a year of attempting to use this cr*p. So much to say about this trash. Do not recommend it to anyone

Useless. Used to occasionally connect to Chromecast but has now completely forgotten the device and is oblivious to its existence. Nothing - NOTHING - has changed, except that Google's apps get progressively worse with every update. ALL of them. Increasingly obvious that information gathering is their primary (sole!) function, because they don't do anything else.

Norhing works right. Not user friendly. Not intuitive or easy to follow whatsoever. I have used other types of services like this, and primarily need it for my chromecast (evidently). The issue is that nothing seems to work correctly whether audio in general, volume control, casting options, etc. I can't believe I'm saying this, but.... what an absolute fail from Google. I don't even comprehend how they could put something like this on the market.
