About Google Home

Google Home is the app Google uses to set up and run a smart home. It connects devices from Google and from partner brands, including Matter devices, and lets you manage, monitor and automate them from one place. The app has been redesigned around Gemini, which also powers the Gemini for Home voice assistant on Google's speakers and displays.

There is a mobile app and a web version. A paid Google Home Premium subscription unlocks the more advanced Gemini features. It suits households already using Nest speakers, displays or cameras.
