Google Home owners will probably be talking to their living rooms a lot more thanks to an update that lets the voice assistant make phone calls to the U.S.

Here’s How to Enable Google Home’s Latest Updates. Google Home owners will probably be talking to their living rooms a lot more thanks to an update that lets the voice assistant make phone calls to the U. S. and Canada. It’s one of many recent updates granting the smart home device more features and compatibility with other services.

Phone Calls Without the Phone. The calls are made over Wi- Fi, with numbers pulled either from businesses or your Google Contacts list. Saying the phrase “Hey Google, call Dad” is enough to get your pop pop on the horn (in speakerphone mode, of course). If you share your Google Home with someone else, its voice recognition capabilities will ensure you call the appropriate patriarch. Google may be playing catch up with the Amazon Echo, but Google Home already has a bunch of…Read more Read.

There are a few bugs Google needs to iron out to make this a truly seamless calling experience, however. For starters, the Google Home call recipient won’t see your number (unless you have Project Fi—more on that below), though the company says it’ll display the correct number for all users by the end of the year. It also doesn’t have 9. Project Fi Users Get Perks.

Google Home owners using Google’s Project Fi wireless phone service or Google Voice are privy to an extra feature or two compared to customers with a different wireless provider. For one, your phone number is displayed on your call recipient’s phone, meaning they’ll actually see who’s calling instead of assuming you’re some sort of robocaller. You can also make calls to “premium rate numbers” and international numbers at their respective rates, a feature unavailable to Google Home owners without the aforementioned accounts.

Visit “More Settings” then select “Calls” to activate the feature. Finally, Bluetooth Support. In addition to making phone calls, Google Home’s software update finally adds Bluetooth audio streaming support, a much- requested feature that’s been present in Amazon’s competing Echo voice assistant since its own debut. It also adds free built- in streaming music through Spotify Free and Deezer, a perk previously associated exclusively with premium accounts. Granted, you won’t be able to play songs on- demand with the built- in Spotify Free account, but at least you’ll be able to listen to some ad- supported hits and use Google Assistant to select different playlists. Not a streaming music subscriber?

If you don’t use any of Google Home’s supported music streaming services, you can connect your Google Home to your phone via Bluetooth and play tunes through the app of your choice. Open the Google Home app, hit the Devices button in the top right corner, then tap the three dots next to your Google Home. From there you can select Paired Bluetooth Devices and add your own. Google Assistant offers simplified voice commands when paired over Bluetooth, like pausing and volume control, and lets you play tunes from places besides Google Play Music or Spotify (like Apple Music or Overcast). This week, Google released Google Home, a voice- controlled smart appliance, to compete with the…Read more Read.

Compared to the Amazon Echo, Google Home finally has the basics down, and is set to add even cooler tricks (like streaming Home requests to your TV via Chromecast) in the near future.
