Google’s Home app is rolling out a Gemini-powered upgrade starting October 2025, allowing users to query camera history using natural language and receive AI-generated descriptions—making device analysis and automation setup more intuitive than ever[1]. The integration includes new “automation starters” with dynamic triggers based on dates and weather, and a Pixel-exclusive Home Summary Widget is currently in testing, though full device compatibility details remain pending[1]. “If creating an automation sounds daunting, you can tell the AI what you want to achieve, and it will draft an automation for you,” according to Android Authority, highlighting the shift from manual setup to AI-driven customization[1].
