The Google Home Commands Cheat Sheet

As Google Home has grown in popularity, so too has the number of voice commands that can be used with the smart speaker device. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by the vast number of possible commands, but fear not – we’ve got you covered with our Google Home commands cheat sheet.

First, you’ll need to wake up your Google Home device by saying “Hey Google” or “OK Google”. Once you’ve got its attention, you can start issuing commands. Here are some of the most useful and interesting ones.

Music

Google Home is a great device to use for listening to music. You can say things like:

– “Play music”

– “Play [artist]”

– “Play [song]”

– “Play [genre]”

– “Play

”
– “Play some [genre] music”

If you want to control the volume, you can say “Turn it up/down” or “Volume [X]” (where X is a number between 1 and 10).

Google Assistant

The smart assistant built into Google Home is its main selling point. There are tons of commands you can issue to get information and help with tasks. Here are just a few:

– “What’s the weather like today?”

– “What’s the latest news?”

– “What’s my schedule?”

– “Set a timer for [X] minutes”

– “Tell me a joke”

– “How do you say [word] in [language]?”

Smart home

Google Home is also capable of controlling a wide range of smart home devices. Here are some commands you can use:

– “Turn on/off the lights”

– “Dim the lights”

– “Set the temperature to [X]”

– “Turn on the TV”

– “Set the thermostat to [mode]”

We hope this Google Home commands cheat sheet was useful to you. Of course, there are many more commands that you can use – this is just the tip of the iceberg. We encourage you to experiment and try out new phrases to see what works best for you. The great thing about Google Home is that it’s constantly updating and improving, so there’s always something new to discover. Happy commanding!

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
