The new brands/products include:

  • Best Buy Insignia Wi-Fi Smart Plug
  • LIFX Smart Lights
  • TP-Link Smart Home products
  • Wink Hub automation
  • Vivint Home Security
  • Rachio Sprinklers
  • Logitech Harmony
  • Geeni Connected Tech
  • August Smart Locks
  • Electrolux Smart Appliances

These new products bolster the crop of connected home devices already compatible with Google Home, giving you more options for adding smart home products within your home. Perhaps you already built out some home automation around a Wink Hub — now all you need to do is add the Wink Hub to your Google Home app or in the Home Control panel in the Google Assistant settings on your Pixel or Android phone.

Earlier today, Google announced that Google Home will be coming to the UK in April. All these latest product integrations will of course be available for new UK users as well.
