DT Daily: Over 5000 smart home devices now work with Google Assistant

Published on May 3, 2018

Get ready to start saying “Hey Google” to just about every smart device in your home. The list of smart home devices that can connect with Google assistant is now up over 5000. Today, Google announced that assistant is now compatible with all major connected device manufacturers in the U.S. The smart home component hookup list, which is still growing, includes everything you’d expect, like cameras, doorbells, locks, lights, and switches. It also works with security systems including recently added ADT, First Alert, and Vivin. For entertainment, Google Assistant will now connect to DISH’s Hopper family of receivers, and Logitech Harmony hub compatibility is coming soon.

Google’s been working quickly this year to expand the reach of Google Assistant. Four months ago only 1500 devices worked with Google Assistant, and now it’s 5000.
