Gemini Is Coming to Every Google Smart Home Device From the Last Decade – Here's How to Get Early Access

Gemini for Home replaces Google Assistant on devices with advanced AI features that enable natural conversation and smart home automations, Google says.

  • Today, Google LLC announced Gemini for Home will replace Google Assistant on existing smart home devices with an early access program starting this month.
  • Google built Gemini to replace rigid Google Assistant commands with natural, conversational interactions that remember prior requests and let users describe automations in plain language.
  • The new Home Speaker includes custom processing, 360-degree audio, and 10 natural-sounding voices, while Gemini Live enables continuous chats without wake words.
  • Locking some features behind a paid tier means Google Home Premium starts at $10 per month or $100 per year, with a $20 tier for most camera AI; free tier users get expanded clip history and early adopter feedback.
  • Throughout October, Google says the update will roll out to cameras and doorbells first with speakers and smart displays arriving toward the end of the month; the Google Home app is getting a redesign and Walmart will offer Gemini-compatible devices amid competition.
