Google Home app gets new update with improved camera controls and more

Google has just rolled out a new update for the Google Home app, bringing some helpful changes and fixes. Version 3.18 is now available to download on both Android and iOS.

One of the biggest improvements is the ability to manage multiple Nest camera feeds at once using the Public Preview version of the app. Users can now view and control more than one camera in the same screen, which makes monitoring different areas a lot easier. This feature adds convenience, especially for those with several Nest devices at home.

Another change includes a better pairing process for the Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen). The update improves how the device connects with the app, making setup smoother for new users.

Besides these main features, the update also brings performance improvements and bug fixes, which should help the app run more smoothly overall.

To try out the multi-camera view or other features in testing, users can sign up for the Public Preview inside the app’s settings. Just tap the gear icon, go to “Public Preview,” and follow the steps.

This update shows that Google is continuing to improve the Home app experience, especially for users with smart home setups that include Nest cameras and doorbells.
