Overview
- New predefined voice actions in the automation editor include announcing the time or weather, asking what time to set an alarm, playing a chime, music, news, podcasts, radio, sleep sounds, or telling a joke.
- Users can now remove certain built-in routines such as Good Morning and Bedtime to prioritize their own custom automations.
- A new tap-and-hold gesture on an automation opens a feedback menu to report specific issues, with the feature rolling out now.
- Google implemented a foundational fix on home.google.com that supports continuous video clip downloads up to five minutes and avoids splitting overlapping events.
- The premade actions currently work only in the Home app’s full automation editor, not in Ask Home or Help Me Create, and users need to update the app via the Play Store to receive the changes.
