TL;DR<\/p>\n
A growing number of Google Home users are running into issues with their smart home devices.
\nThe company has acknowledged an issue with accessing certain devices in the Home app.
\nThe Chief Product Officer at Google Home and Nest has also acknowledged the recent feedback on Google Assistant\u2019s reliability on home devices and promised major improvements by this fall.<\/p>\n
Update: July 23, 2025 (8:13 PM ET): The Chief Product Officer for Google Home and Nest, Anish Kattukaran, has now also acknowledged the issue users have been facing with the deteriorating performance of Home devices. In a post on X<\/a> (formerly Twitter), the executive apologized for the issues and said that the team is working on a long-term solution.\u201dWe have been actively working on major improvements for sometime and will have more to share in the fall,\u201d said Kattukaran.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Original article: July 23, 2025 (6:47 PM ET):\u00a0 If you\u2019ve been experiencing issues with Google Home and your smart home devices, you\u2019re far from alone. There have been numerous reports<\/a> about devices disconnecting, delayed responses, ignored commands, and more. However, a fix for the problem could be on the way.<\/p>\n On Reddit<\/a>, a Google Home user shared that 90% of their Smart Life light bulbs had disconnected. But it wasn\u2019t just their light bulbs that were having issues. They also mentioned that their eufy doorbell and Tapo cameras stopped connecting, as well. The user questions whether the problem is connected to a bad update.<\/p>\n Under that post, you\u2019ll find multiple comments from other Google Home users who are also running into similar issues. One commenter says, \u201cI\u2019ve only been able to connect to Home two or three times today.\u201d Another states that all of their cameras are down, despite all of their other smart home devices<\/a> working.<\/p>\n Thankfully, it looks like Google is aware of the issue in question. In response to the post, Google announced:<\/p>\n Hey all,<\/p>\n We\u2019re aware of an issue with accessing some devices in the Google Home app. We\u2019ll share an update as soon as possible, thanks for your patience.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, all this message really tells us is that Google knows there\u2019s an issue and it is presumably working on a fix. It\u2019s unclear when that fix could roll out. We have contacted Google for more information, and we will update this article if we hear back.<\/p>\n![\"Google](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Google-Home-spology-x-post.jpg\"\/ "\\"Google")
