Google Home users, rejoice! Google has just announced an update for Android devices that brings back the beloved feature of controlling multiple speakers or devices simultaneously through the Google Home app. Say goodbye to adjusting each speaker individually, as this update adds convenience right at your fingertips.
This feature may sound familiar to some users, as it was once available before being removed due to a legal dispute with Sonos. Now, with the resolution of the dispute, Google has reintroduced this popular feature, allowing users to effortlessly adjust the volume across multiple speakers.
Here’s what you need to know about this update:
– The functionality can be accessed through the Google Home app or via Google Assistant voice commands.
– Android users can control group volume directly from their lock screens or smart displays like the Nest Hub.
– Users can add or remove speakers, choose preset speaker groups, and adjust volume collectively for selected devices within the app.
– Voice commands such as “Hey Google, turn it up” or “Hey Google, set volume to 40%” make managing group volumes a breeze.
Initially available on Pixel devices running Android 15 Beta 2, this feature is now officially rolled out for stable builds of Android. It’s a significant win for Google Home users, bringing back a much-loved feature while introducing enhancements for increased convenience. Get ready to enjoy seamless audio control across all your connected devices!
