Nest Secure can now be controlled with Google Assistant

Nest Secure can now be controlled with Google Assistant

Nest and Google have been attached for a few years now, while Nest has lived solo of Googles tie-ins since Google bought Nest, Google is now slowly integrating the Google Assistant into most of the products the company makes, in the last month or so the Nest IQ cam was updated to support Google Assistant and now, in the US at least the Nest Secure security system can now be controlled with Googles AI assistant.

So far the support is restricted but you can control and query the whole system via another device, such as a smartphone which supports the Google Assistant so you can quickly check in to see if your home is safe. Arming the system does can be achieved, so long as you don’t have a passcode set and for obvious reasons you can’t disarm the system via voice either.
