Google Home to get two new interesting features soon

Google Home can now control washers, dryers, vacuums & more

Amazon recently launched its smart speaker, Amazon Echo Plus in India. We have already used the device, and it seems pretty cool

However, we can't wait for Google to bring its smart home speaker Google Home to India. Especially, when the device is getting new features. According to a support page, Google Home is gaining some new functionality. The support page of Google Home has been updated listing some new features that will be added to the device shortly. The features are Direct Control and Scene Support.

The total number of supported smart home devices is now over 1000 from more than 150 brands. You can check this link to see if your smart home appliance is directly supported by Google Home.

The company has detailed the instructions to add your smart home devices on its support website.

In addition to the support for several new appliances, Google is also including the native support to control scenes on your smart light. Scenes allow users to set a number of specific brightness and colour setting presets, which can be triggered anytime they want. For instance, if you want your smart lights at 40% and a little more blue or yellow at night, you can set up a scene and trigger it at night with a simple command with your Google Home. While the manufacturer-specific smart light apps have long supported scenes, Google Home has been a bit behind.

How to connect a new smart home device with Google Home

• Make sure both your phone and Google Home are on the same Wifi network.
• Go to Menu in your Google Home app
• Tap Home control .
• In the “Devices” tab, tap the add icon (+) present at the bottom right.
• Select the type of device you want to connect, then follow the steps.
• When pairing is complete, tap Done.

The support page also reveals that Google Home may add scenes support in future. The device could gain the ability to activate and deactivate scenes. For those who are not aware, scenes allow you to save a predetermined brightness and color ahead of time so you can recall them later. The support page further details the commands needed to control scenes
