Sigh.
More than anything else in Google’s current product portfolio, Google Home is among the most frustrating. We’re now 10 years into Google’s smart home platform, and while it should feel mature and robust at this stage in its lifecycle, it instead has never felt more precarious.
I say this as someone whose house is built around Google Home. My security cameras, thermostat, smart speakers, and smart displays are all made by Google. It’s the smart home ecosystem I chose years ago, and the one I’ve ultimately stuck with.
