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.

NOTHING with Google nest home works! Why they can't seem to get the system to work properly is beyond me. I have a hub, a doorbell, several cameras, a wifi router & 3 extenders, and I don't think they have EVER worked in sync the way they are suppose to. I don't know if updates are continually causing the issues, but I STRONGLY discourage you from purchasing this system for your smart home/security needs!! The equipment never fully communicates with the other equipment or the app! Waste of $!!!

Honestly it gets incredibly infuriating that, after 2 years of dealing with routines, that won't play the specific playlist i want and still no fix. I have tried every solution google gives just like a bunch of people, and it doesn't work. I am an eclectic musical listener, so I create specific playlists. You'd think They'd fix it by now bit they won't give a specific reason why it happens either, only the same "solutions" that don't work.

Full of bugs. On my pixel 9 pro xl, the app shows no activities recorded, yet on my other devices, shows all activities recorded. One time, when creating/modifying automations, it directs me to an error page. It was fixed, but now when creating automations, the app doesn't give me any option to categorize if it's a personal or household automation.
