Google Home has finally arrived in the U.S.!
What once was a romantic Sci-Fi dream is quickly becoming the reality standard!
With the new digital assistant Google Home, you only need your voice to to control your daily tasks. The interior of the smart device is full of innovation. Because of the AI assistant built-in, Google Home relies on your voice commands and is able to play music, answer questions, set timers, define and translate terms, provide news, traffic and weather reports. It even has the ability to connect with your external Wi-Fi home equipment in order to control lamps, fans, wall sockets, blinds, thermostats and plugs via voice command.
You don't have to be an expert on technology-based devices in order to control Google Home. But given the fact that the device doesn't really ship with a proper documentation (the short manual doesn't count), this book should help you to get to know most of the abilities and features Google Home has to offer.
