Google Home for Positive User Reviews
✓ GoodIt’s good, it’s useful, it can be a little confusing or even annoying, like if there’s a problem it may not tell you what the actual problem is and therefore it can be hard to fix it, but otherwise it’s fine. I have a Google Home Mini, which is great, and my favourite thing to do on this app is customise my Good Morning Routine, so in the morning you can just say one thing and your assistant will tell you everything you want it to (weather, traffic, even a joke!) So basically this app could use some improvements, but it is good..Version: 2.29.110
✓ Very DisappointingApp takes a very long time to download even when I have a full Wi-Fi connection and at least 10G of storage available. I recently purchased a Google Home Mini and I am also disappointed with how the app will not connect, and keeps saying “Something Went Wrong”. I tried multiple times reloading the app, connecting and disconnecting, turning on and off but nothing seems to work. The app also wont show my Google Home Mini as a device, nor will it show Chromecast as a device. I’ve given it 2 stars as it is fantastic WHEN IT WORKS! My chrome cast will also not allow any other devices to connect to it, even when i have completely disconnected from it. Very disappointed with how everything is. I have also seen other reviews stating the same problem. Google, It’s over to you..Version: 1.26.810
✓ Removing devicesIt works great but I think your missing one big function and that is so you can remove devices from your wifi like the kids adding all their mates to the wifi you can only pause them not forget or kick them from the network like traditional routers.Version: 2.50.105
✓ Great but key features missingThe app has become a lot more stable now and I find it very easy to manage devices and add new ones. Occasionally features are missing for no apparent reason due to locale (routines for example). No widgets available on iOS which is kind of a bummer..Version: 2.54.105
✓ Google Home for IOSAs with all new things getting used to the app at the same time as learning about setting up a smart home took a little while. For the most part I didn’t have many problems, the ones I did find are as follows. If you select “more settings” when the Google Assistant” is already open it does not always open the page with the settings on it. If you have this issue make sure you close Google Assistant before selecting “more settings” from Google Home. Occasionally Google Home just closes presumably due to some error and this seems one more to be due to switching from the settings on the Assistant back to the Home app. Finally I would highly recommend the Google Support char web facility which are very good. It will take a while to understand all the verbal and or typed commands but I would recommend making a list of the useful ones..Version: 1.31.910
✓ Google wired indoor camerasHad these for 2 days - brilliant cameras and amazing features - wired option best as you never have to worry about battery strength- still learning all the features but absolutely delighted- so much peace of mind and going to subscribe to Nest Aware..Version: 2.47.111
✓ Dylanjah. My experienceI live with my partner and young flat mate we’re allways streaming simultaneously wether I’m in my office flat mates in his room or in the garage partners in her room or office ... and I can control it all from my google home app on my iPhone 😂😂😃😜.Version: 2.24.112
✓ Google home and Google CamerasAre used to use regular nest cameras and they were just fantastic I love them so much unfortunately I needed another 15 cameras to install in my work and they were no more nest camera now they are Google nest cameras Man that thing don’t work the application is not working properly nothing compared like a nest app the cameras are not working not recording if you trying to look at the history it’s loading forever sometimes we do don’t play you have to download it to your device so you can see it I tired to call in google Nest customer service they telling me to restart cameras which been installed 10 feet from the ground I paid money to install them to have a problem every single day and every single time this is worst cameras you can get! I wish they had regular nest cam that they had before.Version: 2.47.111
✓ Not up to Googles usual standardAs a long time user and subscriber to Google Nest products and services I find the half arsed consolidation:implementation of Nest and Google Home disappointing. Particularly as the products involved are Google’s own and otherwise perform their function well. I ask Google to properly implement all Nest products e.g. Nest Protect Smoke Alarm, Nest Temperature Sensor, etc in Google Home and also lift Google Home app to a similar standard enjoyed in the Nest App (which still has to be kept as Google Home can’t include some of Google’s own Nest products). My recent purchase of new Google Cameras also now frustrates as they can’t be seen with the other Nest cameras on the Nest App. Please fix..Version: 2.53.103
✓ Don’t normally give a 5 but...Having installed 5 Google Home units this weekend, most with very little issues and a very intuitive interface (the older one was no where near as good as this), this makes the whole Smart Home concept a simple reality. Sure, it doesn’t do a whole lot yet apart from media and a light or two but the future, in particular the immediate future, is very exciting with this at the fore..Version: 2.6.108
✓ Google Home and...Chromecast Ultra are ultra amazing! I don't watch Cable TV anymore!.Version: 1.24.526
✓ Rich home-system-management ecosystemGoogle Home is the best home-management ecosystem I’ve used (and I’ve used others). It makes integration with other systems generally very easy and useful. Today, in fact, I had some motorized screens installed and was able to easily integrate the screen system with Google Home and now all of my routines are richer b/c they involve the screens now too (in addition to the lights, music settings, thermostat I already had set up). I’m particularly a fan of the ability to include the google home speakers into multiple groups - allows so much more flexibility that other home systems which operate only on a one-to-one basis for speaker/group. I’m a total fan and will keep enriching my home ecosystem as we make improvements. One thing I’d like to see them improve is to “see” the state of the system more robustly. If someone else starts music on our home system and I later look at my already-opened Home app it doesn’t show music playing - I have to fully close the app and re-open, at which point it recognizes that music is playing..Version: 2.67.106
✓ Good but with 1 annoyanceI don’t yet have the Home device, but i use this app with a Chromecast, Nexus TV and 2x Chromecast Audios. All pretty intuitive and not hard to setup. Once it’s going, it is a great system which works well and is pretty family friendly. My big annoyance is that while you can ‘group’ the audio devices for multiroom music or audio, you cant include any of the video devices in this. I’d love to be able to watch a concert or something on a TV and have it stream the sound to all connected speakers, but no can do. Please fix!.Version: 1.24.526
✓ Very poorThis app fails to connect any Google device..Version: 2.53.103
✓ My google home will not connect anymore to my smart WIZ lightHello to whom it may concern recently I have been having some issues with google home and connecting it to my smart WIZ light globe. After about 2 hours on Sunday afternoon of not successfully re connecting google home to my smart globe I gave up and I also tried deleting the app and reinstalling it and restarting my phone and then logging out of my google account and I have unlinked and tried to link again my WIZ globe and now google will not connect at all she keeps saying sorry I can’t do that or it’s not available right now it worked up until Saturday night and now it just won’t re connect again please help !!!.Version: 2.19.115
✓ Can’t activate on iOS13Google home devices won’t activate with iOS 13..Version: 2.14.109
✓ Brilliant, but a little frustratingSo let me start by saying that I am a Google Home Mini lover. Bought one, then added two more... have got these three all doing what I need. The latest version of the App has added flexibility and makes for a great user experience.... But I then bought a fourth for the weekend house... All fine except that despite setting up a different home in the App it copies over the routines and doesn't allow different routine settings for a different home... Who needs the traffic to work on a Sunday morning when you just want the weather and the news? Tried to download the app again to have two separate houses (rather than homes) but this is NOT allowed! Am I missing a trick in the app or have you assumed we lead inflexible lives these days?.Version: 2.8.107
✓ Issue with deleting devices from routinesDespite a device no longer existing on google home it still comes up in routines. This then makes the routine not run properly. I’ve tried deleting routines but still to no avail this does not solve the problem and the old devises are still there. I see on forums that this has been an issue for awhile now..Version: 2.35.109
✓ No hands onI bought google home and before the day was finished my daughter went out and got one for her own. The next day my neighbour / friends check mine out and they also went out and bought one. Since then I have purchased one more just for the bedroom. I use it for music, news and alarms. I also control my thermostat with it, I'm now looking at switches to control a few lights and the kettle for the morning tea or coffee. I must say also it sounds very good for the size. It's great to just ask it something without lifting a finger..Version: 1.24.526
✓ LoHad it all working fine, moved house wouldn’t work in new house so I unlinked my hive account and now won’t reconnect so I basically had hundreds of pounds worth of lights that I couldn't control by the google home hub. Pointless and thinking should of got an Alexa!! Reading the forums loads of people had this issue as well, got the issue sorted but was very frustrating. When they work it’s great, but super annoying they don’t work with ring doorbells and other things as well what’s the point of this kind of tech if you can’t use it with similar tech.Version: 2.39.104
✓ At last go me oneVerry nice love the way you can ask a question ex. hey Google how many season in breaking bad... I got also meself Hue lamp nice with the shortcut you can make like macro, also I interfaced with IfTTT , please do it bring up the options. Waitting for other nice improvements and you can trust Google for that..Version: 1.24.526
✓ Google HomeThis might be a little premature as I am just a day since getting a Nest Mini, from my forward-thinking son, who I can proudly say, has educated me and brought me out of playing, PacMan or Mahjong and into being able to talk with a computer The set out is incredibly simple to use and mind-blowingly vast, in what it can do for you. Once I learn more about this wonderful gadget, I will be pleased to share my experiences with the you, in an update!!.Version: 2.16.124
✓ Super quick and easy!I’m 84 years old and live on my own, I have no idea how to use new technology, but this app offers a very quick and easy set up, I am very pleased with this simple yet very helpful app, I am now able to watch my favourite show, everything I just said is completely cap, I haven’t been able to connect to my chrome cast for weeks, I spent so much time trying to connect to my chrome cast I missed my bloody spinal reconstruction surgery and now I only have 2 weeks to live. THANKS GOOGLE 🖕🏼🖕🏼.Version: 2.35.109
✓ Update ideaThe app has come a long way!! And I love it I use it everyday with my many devices I have linked to it, including lights routines and my display. I do have a suggestion to add to the routines though.. there should be an option to add a on off switch to the routines we make. as I have different set times I wake upto with a routine I have so I can use the same routine but at different times during the week.. I hope that makes sense and keep up the good work google!.Version: 2.17.110
✓ Yay for GoogleFor a digital migrant as opposed to a digital native I find Google very intuitive. It has great support enabling people who are learning how to navigate their way across the internet. Navigational tools are awesome.Version: 2.59.211
✓ Widget OptionsI reckon if you can make a widget option which we can use to control our lights/devices from the home screen would be very helpful!.Version: 2.56.107
✓ Google HomeLove it. The assistant is still learning as she often will tell you but she’ll get there. Good job google.Version: 2.11.112
✓ FantasticWhen I was a kid, I had a dream to have a voice assistant like they had in Start Trek. Finally I can have my wiki in my house without having to type on any keyboard. Awesome device and gadget for any age . The link with Spotify works very well . Enjoy and have fun !!!.Version: 1.24.526
✓ Thanks TelstraHey google home mini creators if your reading your partnership with Telstra was a GREAT! Idea I connected to Telstra before I went on a holiday and I found my google home there the app is still downloading but I almost certain that the app will run smoothly. The thing itself is really good as it tells you the instructions as soon as you turn it on. After all I think the google home mini was a huge success so thank you google and keep up the good work! 😀.Version: 2.8.107
✓ Feeling well and very secureI so in love the camera catch what i want and need with this system i should got a long time ago it secures of all i need and want and helps my depression and anxiety because i lives in a unsafe environment i have ring doorbell as well for outside protection someone tried to break into my home while my little girl was home i feel safe and secure and catch A individual boyfriend who live in my house was talking behind my back to family members that caused he’s evictions as well from my home which my daughter informed me because she was feeling very uncomfortable what he was doing behind our backs this been a while ago what he was doing in my house was inappropriate and disrespectful talking behind our back and deseeding me and others and The maintenance was entering in my home without my permission and no notice i overwhelmingly satisfied thank you google home you all so appreciate yeah I deserve an award and 10 plus stars god blessings y’all and staffing keep up the awesome work of keeping your commuters in community safe.Version: 3.12.104
✓ It is really great except privacyI feel like you lose privacy but google nest mini is awesome to have as an assistant. I just purchased my boss the google hub max with zoom video and google duo. Otherwise the device is great. Google should really send confirmation that your data is purged after time with proof and certification. Just meet a middle ground with privacy and we will have the new standard top AI interface. Most people get upset with google home / past nest and device compatibility issues but things got a lot better in this year with less hardware to home and nest issues. Google communicates better as 3rd party is now open to interface to google home with their software. You have to be tech savvy to run any complicated networks. I have google controlling thermostats, security cams, lights, air conditioning smart tv and blue tooth speakers. If you aren’t a general expert in networking you will struggle. You need professional IT because all my stuff works great..Version: 2.46.106
✓ Google Home User FeedbackGreat app and concept for casting. Enjoying the practicality of the functionality but would have been experiencing a few drop outs with the google chrome dongle on occasion where the app does not pick up the device and I generally restart the dongle and it becomes available again. Also not difficult to use the app but would love to see a slightly more intuitive layout.....possible that it already is, just my logic not keeping up but just my experience.......keep up the good work.Version: 2.18.115
✓ Great app !Mostly impressed - functionality is very flexible, stable and reporting is impressive. Only gripe is that iPhone app has a minimum duration of an hour for any heating session. With current energy crisis a heating top up of 15 minutes should be possible. It’s all I need to take the chill off the house in the morning as I’m getting ready for work. An hour is wasteful, I try to remember to turn it down again manually but sometimes forget. (Others with the app are still in bed so it stays on if I don’t) Fix this and it’s 5 stars 🤞🏼.Version: 2.62.111
✓ Chromecast is awesomeDon't have cable so this is my main form of streaming/watching content. Works great. The app is much better now than it was a year ago. Being able to control volume and what your watching from multiple phones is super convenient. Sometimes it's a bit annoying to try and control playback through an app like Netflix directly but aside from that it's great..Version: 1.24.526
✓ An app process that could be more efficientWhen moving, for example from the end of one movie on Netflix to the next, you have to exit the movie and go to the next. I would suggest if possible a feature that makes it easy to click the next movie. Like a easy flow on instead of the screen pausing on the tv, having to disconnect google chrome then connect again on the new movie..Version: 2.25.105
✓ Cov19Everything and now this was the beginning last year February starts people are getting sick left right centre and around the world and every country has had a lot to explain around Australia around the boat’s ferry’s big ship’s all sick people just walk join the community airlines just let every sick person off completely you are in safe hands don’t panic yet people are die ing like India 100 thousands sick and worst is to come blood clots and dizziness short breath tuning nose and can’t sleep tried for not reason and more and more is to come.Version: 2.37.107
✓ I love this appIt is soo good and I spent a lot of money for a good reason it helps me with exams and texts. it is absolutely epic and the lights are really cool ,the music is cool , everything about it is fun! I had soo much fun setting it up and it only took an hour it is pretty and white which I love !!!it is soo useful and my on my iPhone X the weather is sometimes wrong but on my google home mini it is always right ! and I think if you are looking for a google home get the mini google home I hope that you have a good experience with your google home, and I think they should get updates, but it is still cool I have a smart tv in my room , and the google home was easy to set up on a flat screen soo I don’t know how it is on smaller tv cause my house only has flatscreens, and we all have iPhone Xs so I don’t know about other phones. I had a pretty good time with mine my brother sister mom and dad have a google home each and a family one. I don’t have to go up and down stairs because now it is in my room!!! And you all should by it!!!!! If you want to ask about stuff you can and also google is nice not like Siri if I ask her about my background she says “well you are Spanish Italian Greek American and born and live in America” if I say what is my age she says “ 18” if I say what is my name she says “ kristina” and it is all true!!!!!!! So hope u get your own google home mini and I do not want to sound like a show off..Version: 1.28.508
✓ Easy to useWe use the google chrome cast thru google home to stream from phones and laptop to our TV. It’s so easy.Version: 2.32.111
✓ No option to delete spam request email in Google Home AppI love the Google Home Hub but recently received a spam email and cleaned it from all devices and backups. Unable to remove from the Google Home App. Only option at present is to to Invite to Home Group. There Needs to be an option added to the Select People dialogue box that allows you to delete these requests..Version: 2.23.112
✓ Google homeImpossible to navigate when a new router is installed.Version: 2.23.112
✓ Google NestI found this a very good doorbell. Very straightforward to to set up and night vision is excellent for a battery door bell. So far it’s been one of the best camera doorbell I’ve had. It is available in different colours I got the Snow White and matched in with rest of house. Would I recommend this video doorbell, totally one of the best to get I’ve had and easily set up. Takes less than 10 minutes and videos are perfect, also works well with Alexia for your chimes..Version: 3.2.104
✓ Great coverageFirst mesh system I’ve used and very happy with it. I bought this nest wifi with x2 access points with a new Aussie BB connection and it covers both floors and outside areas. Set up very easy by Google Home and like the ease of using my smartphone to monitor traffic and reserve IP’s for all the devices wired and wifi. I went ahead and linked up all our media services but not tried using google to play anything yet. I recommend it..Version: 2.48.106
✓ Nearly there!I love the google home eco system. I have the Nest Hub, the Home Mini, smart plugs and bulbs. I love the app, and the ability to control items from other manufacturers through the hub’s app. It’s a gadget lovers thing. Totally not needed, but very cool to have! I find the voice recognition software to be successful around 60-70% of the time. It’s so annoying having to repeat yourself and rephrase commands to fit the system’s understanding. My partner has very little patience for this and her pointing this out to me is what stops me giving 5 stars and being ‘allowed’ to have more smart products at home. When it ‘just works’ I’m sure it’s popularity will grow. It great, but it’s not prefect... yet. I’m hoping more work is going into the system understanding different voice commands, and being more consistently successful with actions. Would definitely recommend this over Alexa (I’ve used both)..Version: 2.12.107
✓ Helpful but bugsThe Google home is great to connect to my chrome cast on the TV and send videos directly into the TV which are playing. Google home provides the ability to ask simple queries but if you don’t ask the query in the correct fashion it says “I can’t help you with that”. There are a few little bugs where Google is asked something and if there are other devices in the house it sends multiple packets to all the devices and clogs up the Wi-Fi network. This bug is being resolved by Google with a patch..Version: 1.26.812
✓ Works Just FineSetup is easy with home control items, but waiting for more compatible devices for Canada..Version: 1.24.526
✓ Google doorbell cameraExcellent picture in day and night. Think the price is fair but if they could get the price down to $100 I’m not sure they’d be able to keep them in stock. The 2 way speaker works great I can hear people clearly even when they’re whispering about us having a doorbell camera. Lol. The camera runs off of the Google home app and install of camera and setup of app is very simple. Set up everyone in the home to work the app from their phone. Also has facial recognition in a sense. You can type the names of people that are viewed by camera and once you do and select that you know them the next time they’re seen on camera you get a smiley avatar along with there name. Camera isn’t backed up off sight but you can store All footage on your phone from the time it’s activated and go through it anytime you want or might need to if there’s a reason for the police to see the footage. Only thing I would improve is that I received the notifications when they were 10 to 15 yards from camera as opposed to 5 feet from camera.. If I lived in a bigger city I would have bought one that is monitored but I live in a very small town with a very low crime rate. Hope this helps anyone looking to purchase a doorbell camera.Version: 2.63.110
✓ So many missing features and crashesWhy do we still have to use the Nest app to set scheduling for thermostats and configure features on security cameras? We have been forced to use this Google home app, because newer nest products will only work with it. This app crashes daily, and has missing features. With the resources, Google has at its disposal, I am shocked and disappointed. This is such a poorly executed transition from nest to Google for app support. A while back, this app had a pop up, encouraging sending a report when it is opened up after a previous crash. Now that option has disappeared so either the app is automatically reporting in the background or Google has given up on taking feedback because there’s too much of it. It is frustrating at best especially when you’ve made a significant investment in these products. In my case, three thermostats and 11 cameras. This isn’t cheap and it needs to work properly..Version: 3.5.102
✓ Awesome when combined with assistant devicesWe got the Google Home hub for Christmas and new it had some interesting possibilities with connected home stuff. 3 weeks in and we have the tv and lights controlled via a wifi switch and this app. We also love the shopping list feature of this app would be worth the free download just for this alone. We share the list between house members and can see in real time as they are checked off. Great app well worth a look especially if you have some of the google hardware like the home hub! Even without these devices check it out the app is like all google stuff very well done..Version: 2.8.107
✓ Google home is greatReally enjoy this app and I’m looking forward to any future features that may be added. I’ve already found many ways do use this with my Google home speaker..Version: 2.11.112
✓ Product sort of works with lots of frustrationsThis product was obviously rushed and is a total mess. It kind of works. But there are so many problems with it. First of all, routines are totally broken. Not all of my cameras show up in the list. If you want to automate your nest thermostat, you need to do that in another app. it takes a really long time to connect to my cameras to the point where it’s not useful in a intruder situation. Honestly this is just embarrassing for google and the only reason this has 4.5 stars is probably because they have tens of thousands of employees giving it a 5. Edit: I just updated this from 2 to 1 star. Someone rang my doorbell and I tried to connect. it took about 30 seconds, completely defeating the purpose of the device. the google home ecosystem is a buggy broken mess, and I wasted hundreds of dollars..Version: 2.60.118
✓ Sal SAbsolutely love this device. To heck with Alexa not allowing Canadians to use their items. Good job google..Version: 1.24.526
✓ Oh my god in 40 years as a system programmer this is the worst crap I have ever seen.I have 2 3 node google matrix router sets. One in my home one in my vacation house. Went to make a change in router setup but the old command to setup router now only provides info and I have to go to google home to make router changes. Ok I hit the migrate button and I get a list of devices that does not include any google matrix routers. Now I would think that since the command I was using knows what devices I own it would bring up the correct devices in google home. Or at the very least document what I would need to do to set up google home. I thought I bought a google product but this crap is as bad as a Microsoft solution. Now I have 500 dollars of routers that will need to be replaced. This is a disgrace. And not the quality of a software solution I would expect for spending over 500 dollars for routers..Version: 2.40.104
✓ Default TV is faultyI have 2 Chromecast devices connected (as default TV in the Google Home app) individually to 2 different Google Home Mini speakers, and when I ask either speaker to initiate a stream (HomeSafe View) only the Chromecast Ultra device shows the security camera I ask for,no matter which speaker I use with voice commands. I then split the devices by room, then WiFi router (I have 2) and then started a new ‘Home’ in the Google Home app for a speaker and Chromecast. Only if I turn off the Chromecast Ultra will the other Chromecast works as intended..Version: 2.16.124
