Unlock New Features with Google Home 3.39

Last week, Google Home rolled out its latest version, 3.39, packed with exciting updates you won't want to miss. Get ready to enhance your smart home experience!

Wi-Fi Presence Sensing: A Game Changer!

One of the standout features is the Wi-Fi presence sensing capability. Now, your Home & Away status can automatically adjust based on whether your mobile device connects to or disconnects from your chosen Wi-Fi network. This means your smart home can know when you're home or away without you lifting a finger!

How It Works

To set this up, simply navigate to the Settings tab in the Home app and select 'Presence Sensing.' Here, a new 'Home Wi-Fi networks' menu allows you to specify which networks will trigger these status changes. Once configured, your home will accurately reflect when you're back or if you’ve left.

Enhanced Thermostat Features

Google also highlighted enhancements for their Nest Learning Thermostat lineup. With the introduction of temperature, sensor, and fan scheduling, users can enjoy greater control over their home environment. Whether you have the 3rd-gen Nest Learning Thermostat or the Nest Thermostat E, you’ll benefit from vibrant color displays and an updated energy dashboard.

What’s New in Thermostat Controls?

The update brings a clearer view of your thermostat's heating and cooling states within the Google Home app, showcasing vibrancy and clarity. Plus, the refreshed energy dashboard now provides detailed insights into your heating and cooling patterns, offering a breakdown of usage by system stage and comparisons of monthly energy usage over the past year.

Bug Fixes and More!

In addition to these exciting new features, Google has addressed various bugs and issues to enhance the user experience further. So, make sure to update your app and take advantage of everything Google Home 3.39 has to offer!
