Overview

¹Google Home Max requires a Wi-Fi network, a nearby electrical outlet and compatible mobile device. Controlling certain devices and features in your home requires a compatible smart device.

Controlling devices such as coffee makers, baby monitors and fans in your home requires compatible smart plugs and/or switches.
