From PC Mag: Google has acknowledged an ongoing issue affecting various smart home products that appear offline in the Google Home app, regardless of whether they're on or off. Google is working on a fix, but there's no estimate of how long the outage will last.
As Android Authority reports, a number of Reddit posts over the past 48 hours complain that a range of smart home products are not functioning properly in the Google Home app, including light switches, outlets, power modules, bulbs, and air purifiers. Users report that the devices respond to voice control via Gemini and that native applications still appear to have access to them, so this is clearly a Google Home issue. Some users say that their cameras, smart speakers, and displays all seem to be working fine.
"We are aware of an issue causing some devices to show offline in the Google Home app. We are working to resolve this ASAP and will circle back when the fix rolls out," a Google spokesperson said in the Google Home subreddit.
