Tips and tricks to get the most out of your Google Home

[@mifikdays2040]

This guy has everything like lol smart TV, Smart blindes, Smart fridge

[@alex_MCMXCV]

he's smart himself

[@doggogamer1930]

Smart bed

[@ForTheNerds]

"Google Someone's Breaking In!" Plays I'm A Barbie Girl full blast Turns all the lights to strobe Turns tv on to Courage The Cowardly Dog Buys everything in shopping cart Burglar and I are confused and screaming and now friends best friends through terrifyingly confusing bonding experience

[@katdareshruti]

Modern home-alone:))

[@phxnetworkjunkie4596]

Sounds about right!

[@weavecity]

I don't like leaving negative comments, but this is a huge pet peeve of mine. Seriously though, how do small independent tech channels find the time to mute wake words in their videos but CNET with a team of editors can't? It's not my job to make your videos watchable. Skip.

[@speedracer9132]

I came to say the exact same thing, talk about the epitome of laziness

[@janeleekeller]

J W ; 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@philipkunnath2019]

or u could just take 2 seconds of ur time instead of taking 15 minutes of theirs

[@noahlino97]

That fridge is a big time flex 👌🏾 Great video!

[@aidank2004]

"Okay Google, it's workout time!" I'm sorry, I don't understand "Workout Time" "Me either" *sobs*

[@vidpetrovic8907]

My phone while watching this video: Sorry, I'm not sure if you were talking to me...

[@theroachmotel]

So CNET is too lazy to mute the keywords in post so they tell people to mute their devices beforehand? OK thanks...

[@speedracer9132]

Yeah, they don’t deserve the view if they’re this lazy

[@tfharper]

Its actually simple to fix. These devices all have a frequency that if its missing, the device won't respond to its wake words. That's how they have commercials where they say 'siri', 'alexa' and 'ok google'. The ad removes the one tiny frequency band (inaudible to people) and then the device won't respond if it doesn't see that. About 5 minutes in an audio processor app.

[@theroachmotel]

@@tfharper goes to show you just how lazy CNET is

[@NickMageloff]

Yeah what a bunch a wasted time! Don't they realize that I've got 14 Google homes and smart home devices what dumbasses.... thanks for the warning I'll just run around the whole house and shut everything down so that I can watch their stupid video!!

[@jacksonfoudray8216]

The workout bit was very funny haha. Overall helpful video. Thanks!

[@toepac6375]

Alexa been real quiet since this dropped

[@thebigdoghimself]

There you go Cnet. A little bit of fun, a little bit of personality, an informative and entertaining video.

[@katdareshruti]

1:50, I wish google home even did the push-ups for me while i reaped the benefits, lol😁

[@Tamaresque]

LOL, my Google Home Mini was responding to Chris's voice but not yours, probably because his is pitched higher, and I'm a woman. I'm glad though, that she said she couldn't ID my voice and I'd need to go to Assistant to complete that request. The Find My Phone is the best!

[@WinstonWilliamsofficial]

I like this guy Cnet... lol

[@jaylakassaby5277]

1:07 show me the money 🤣🤣🤣

[@Hammarsand]

0:18 or you can just mute it inn the video like everybody else!

[@littlemisskate4254]

Hey, thanks for the great video. I’m just trying to see if my Google Home can instead of just saying you have a reminder, but actually tell me what my reminder eg time to take your meds.

[@davedejager7094]

Great video!! 🤣 🤣 Love the bits of comedy!

[@DaneWashingtonddtke]

let me just say you to were so funny together and I learn so much

[@donaldjohnson4634]

Half push up😅 .Nice video but I think I need a smart house 👍

[@Joeythe1st]

You look like the nerdy guy that cici dated on The New Girl. 👍

[@jerritanner275]

Google needs to let me play TV audio on my Nest speakers / pairs / groups.

[@kellyharvey8234]

I am getting a Google miñi any day now, thanks. You are funny.

[@Dsisko]

Funny and informative Content ! Well done

[@Californiansurfer]

Google collects your behavior and what you do. More data collection for Google. Thanks CNET

[@Rupee_Craver]

Nice Tips!

[@Rupee_Craver]

Smart Blinds!? Got cop some

[@MinecraftWithStyleHD]

I literally hate watching these videos because they never mute "Hey Google"

[@daubipiccoli]

Whaaat?🤔

[@janeleekeller]

@Amusis ; Big Deal ‼️ Try to excuse Him - as YOU, are Obviously PERFECT 😝 !

[@GrowOZ]

grab some headphones

[@stephenpowstinger733]

Thanks. I’ve had Google Home device, Samsung phone and tablets and now I can find them . Even if Tab A was taking a nap for five minutes. Next I’ll see if the Samsung TV can turn on in morning. How does it know what time though?

[@Tamaresque]

Use the Waking Up Routine. You can write that into it.

[@streamingjunkie4397]

You are overselling the TV bit. Keep the remote near by because you will need it.

[@EpicBenjo]

What kind of automatic blinds are those?

[@giannismourat]

I cant find the routine option in the google home...

[@juangutierrez3817]

Is he the IT guy from the office?

[@mohmedaminpatel4427]

FINALLLLLY SOMEONE SAIIIIIID IT.

[@omegalink4]

What's the music playing at the start of the video?

[@Kittymay407]

Hey! My google hub display is in negative colours? Not sure why, please help

[@lessthanahome]

Hey CNet, how bout you C these Nuts

[@MrTrainREX]

Either I am way too high, or CNET is funny?

[@roroyvonblommaert9243]

Thank you for the tips! 🙌🏾

[@roroyvonblommaert9243]

Also. very majestic. 😂🙌🏾

[@FreedomAtRisk]

The 90s called, they want their haircut back

[@josemanuellastra2488]

Google Assistant lacks functionality, it gives very short-spoken responces whenever you ask her any consult, the user ends up talking more than the Assistant with that 8 letters / 2 words phrase, Ok Google, and it’s very slow to respond

[@hanjaeyoon906]

my google home doesn't have the routine option..

[@raonnycanabarrocosta7881]

He catch me in the workout moment lol

[@Life_Is_A...]

"Hey Google, plat the movie 'Her'."

[@moditb3247]

He looks and sounds just like rogersbase.

[@AdamPreset]

Don’t fear the reaper.

[@tuvakaasa3833]

thx hat you did not say the call name

[@Susan.Lewis.]

To find your phone, why wouldn't you just have the Google Nest Hub phone yourself?

[@WaynesTW]

Because you can have your phone on silent or vibrate and then calling yourself won't accomplish anything.

[@0194D]

How do i get it to make Google stop tracking my information?

[@tfharper]

Unplug it.

[@vinceofyork]

There's a setting for that.

[@katdareshruti]

Let's just pray nobody hacks into one of these smart homes. Else the home is all theirs:))

[@mistet7938]

I was disappointed too. Not muting key words really hurt your video. An expectation has beed set.

[@bunyodbekibadullaev5827]

Madness

[@ljayh1]

Hey google cnet sucks ....... mute that

[@BernardoAntunes]

Instead of asking everyone to mute their own Google Homes, you should fix it in post. Going to remove this lazy channel from my recommendations.

[@DrAshishPradhan]

Nope. I am absolutely fine without it.

[@Tamaresque]

Google should be able to tell you that! 😂

[@ryanocampo5607]

star trek

[@dylanrobinson3832]

first

[@darkvader125]

Bixby routines are a lot better than google

[@mr.z541]

ffs - i already know how to do pushups! next!

[@jsharp3165]

I’m sure there’s some information in here but I couldn’t get past the extremely lame comedy.

[@tfharper]

I got more out of my Home by unplugging it and deciding any always on cam or microphone in my house wasn't going to be happening around here. Too much data collection and too many hacks. No thanks.

[@Tamaresque]

I just turn the mike off until I'm ready to use it. Simple.

[@RichGPlay]

Spanish version

[@iamdenislara]

Is that his house?.... how much does he make?

[@NadrianATRS]

He needs a new hairstyle

[@robbajko1533]

This video was creepy
