Google Home kicks off a Gemini-backed ‘Voice Assistant’ test for Android

Google Home's app on Android is rolling out a Public Preview test called "Voice Assistant," which allows users to control access to the experimental AI feature, Gemini, on their smart home devices. Gemini was first tested on Nest devices last December and is now being integrated into Google Home with improved AI-generated automations and new features. The "Voice Assistant" experiment enables users to manage how household members can access Assistant experiments, but requires "Voice Match" setup for access. Gemini enhances the Assistant's capabilities by providing more comprehensive answers and allowing follow-up questions. At the I/O 2025 event, Google announced additional features for Google Home, including a "Home Summary" widget for Pixel devices and improvements to the "help me create" feature for automation.

This one app has made my life easier and my wife happier

The author has at least 35 different smart home devices, leading to a fragmented experience with multiple apps and services. They are considering using Home Assistant as a central hub for device control, which supports various protocols like Matter, Thread, Zigbee, HomeKit, and Nest. Home Assistant can be installed easily on devices like Raspberry Pi or Virtual Machines, requiring a constant network connection. Once set up, it consolidates controls into one interface, allowing for custom dashboards and automations. Recent developments, such as Google discontinuing support for older Nest Thermostats, have prompted users to seek alternatives like Home Assistant for a unified control experience. The introduction of customizable lock screen shortcuts in Android 14 allows users to replace the Google Home app with Home Assistant. Users are encouraged to start simple and gradually expand their system.

Tesla adds security feature to Android with latest software update

Wedbush analyst Dan Ives reported that Tesla delivered 336,681 vehicles in Q1 2025, falling short of Wall Street's forecast of 352,000 and whisper estimates around 350,000. Tesla attributed part of this underperformance to several weeks of production loss while ramping up the new Model Y. Ives described the performance as “a disaster on every metric” and emphasized that it represents a pivotal moment for CEO Elon Musk, who has been increasingly involved in U.S. government affairs, potentially affecting the brand negatively. Following the delivery report, Tesla's stock initially dropped over 5 percent but rebounded by 8 percent, currently trading up over 5 percent at 3.01. This recovery was linked to reports of Musk potentially stepping back from his role in the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Ives expressed optimism about Tesla's future advancements in robotaxi technology and Full Self-Driving capabilities but cautioned that Musk needs to balance his responsibilities with DOGE and leading Tesla to avoid further crises.
