Google Home’s feature-packed new automation editor is ready for you to try out now

Wait 5 sec.

TL;DRGoogle Home is rolling out a new automation editor experience on Android and iOS.The editor supports conditions, adds new actions and triggers, and just empowers more complicated automations.While some features aren’t yet working, you still have the option to go back to the old editor.Having a proper smart home means more than just installing some Wi-Fi lightbulbs, smart outlets, and security cameras. If you really want to get the most out of all that tech, you’re going to want to set up some automations, where one event triggers a bunch of other things to start happening in sequence — like maybe when someone rings your doorbell, you want the show you’re watching to automatically pause and the lights in your foyer to turn on.Getting that all configured properly, though, can be a huge undertaking — and that’s even assuming that all the automated stuff you’d like to do is supported at all. Thankfully, Google just announced that the Home app is receiving a major update to its automation editor, including adding in some new starter triggers.
