Google Assistant can now schedule smart lights

Google Assistant can now schedule smart lights

Google has recently updated the Google Assistant to now support the ability to schedule smart home devices to turn on at certain times, such as smart lights. Simply ask Google to turn on something at a specified time, such as “Hey Google, Turn on the porch lights at 7pm.”

This news came from Android Police today and while the feature works for some things, the ability to cancel that scheduled command isn’t quite working yet, bit should work soon. We tried the same command using Siri and it just said it couldn’t do it.
