What’s new in Google Home app 4.1 for Android, iOS


Release notes for Google Home 4.1 are now available. This is the first major app update following the redesign.

These resolved issues are “based on your input” following that big launch.


  • Expanded rollout of Ask Home to more Google Home Premium subscribers.
  • Smoother scrolling on Home tab: Scrolling through your Home tab, especially with multiple cameras as Favorites, is now smoother and more responsive on iOS.
  • “All on” button accuracy: The “All on” button for lights in the Lights category on Android devices now correctly grays out when not all lights are turned on.
  • Fixed unclear title for Home Brief in Ask Home: Fixed issue where Ask Home sometimes described “today’s Home Brief” when the user was reading the Home Brief sent on the day before.

Early Access is currently available in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. You’ll receive an email once you’re accepted into the program.

Ahead of broader availability, the sign up (at the bottom of Google Home Settings) is now available in the following countries: Japan, Switzerland, Denmark, Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Norway, Sweden, and Mexico.
