Help is here meet “Google Home”

With our lives becoming more and more complex and demanding of our time Google have recognised this and created a device that you can talk to make requests instead of typing. 

Some of the key features include:  

Getting answers from Google. 
Get real-time answers including the latest on weather, traffic, sports, finance, local businesses and more. Ask for things like translations, calculations, nutritional information and unit conversions hands-free. Or search for other information that you’re curious about with the power of Google Search. 

Enjoy your music. 
With a simple voice command, play tunes from your favourite services like YouTube Music, Google Play Music, Spotify and more. Enjoy even more compatible audio services by streaming directly from your phone to Google Home.* 
*Google Home is optimised for selected music and audio services only. Subscriptions/payments may be required. 

Manage your everyday tasks. 
Easily hear your travel itinerary, daily schedule, and more. Just ask “how long will it take to get to work?” to find out about your commute and get the real-time answers you need, right away. Google Home even curates daily information specific to you. Just start by saying, “Tell me about my day” and get up to speed on everything you need to know. 

Control your smart home. 
Simply ask Google Home to stream videos to your TV with Chromecast, or to turn on your compatible smart light bulbs. 
*Controlling your TV requires a Chromecast or a TV with Chromecast built-in. 

A speaker designed for any room. 
Google Home’s high excursion speaker delivers Hi-Fi sound quality. It can also hear you reliably, thanks to far-field microphones. 

We have one in the iseek showroom, and it has helped us with our daily routine. 

Now we do things like: 

“Hey Google, play music” 

“Ok Google, tell me a joke” 

“Hey Google, volume two” Or at the end of the day, more likely is: “Hey Google, volume eight” 

“Ok Google, remind me to do VIVE VR demo at 4pm today” 

So this is just the beginning of what google home can do! We have loved having it in our store as we can all control it whether it be up close or metres away. 

PS: the next time you spot a google home or google home mini, ask it to make you laugh by saying “Ok google, Make me laugh.”
