I don’t want to miss the best of Android Authority?
With the latest update 4.1“Ask Home” feature, powered by Gemini, expands to more Google Home Premium subscribers.
The update should also make the app smoother, especially on iOS. Google notes that if multiple camera feeds are marked as favorites, scrolling in the Home tab should now be noticeably more responsive.
Android users also benefit from a small but practical solution. The “All On” button for lights will now correctly be grayed out when not all lights are on, improving accuracy in the Lights category.
Finally, Google cleared up some slight confusion in Ask Home’s “Home Brief” headlines, which sometimes incorrectly labeled yesterday’s updates as “today’s.”
