The topic Google Home expands Workspace support, including Nest migration & sharing<\/strong> is currently the subject of lively discussion \u2014 readers and analysts are keeping a close eye on developments.<\/p>\n

This is taking place in a dynamic environment: companies\u2019 decisions and competitors\u2019 reactions can quickly change the picture.<\/p>\n

Google Home is rolling out a \u201chighly requested update\u201d for Workspace accounts that gives users \u201cmore flexibility to manage their homes and devices.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Google \u201cstill highly recommend[s] using a personal Google account (typically gmail.com) for your primary home and device setup.\u201d However, it\u2019s aware that some use Workspace accounts as a personal or family domain.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Expanded Home Sharing means \u201cWorkspace accounts can now participate fully in home sharing.\u201d As such, you can invite others to your home or accept invitations to join existing ones. Previously, you couldn\u2019t invite any other account (Workspace or personal) to control the home.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, you can easily invite anyone you need, at the right access level, to help manage your devices.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Workspace users can now participate in Nest Account Migration. Additionally, they can set up the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen), Nest Doorbell (3rd gen), and other new devices in the Google Home app.<\/p>\n

Google says you \u201cshould never use an account that you do not fully own or control,\u201d like one from school or work.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you leave your job or school, the Workspace administrator can revoke your access or take back your credentials, which means you will lose access to your Google Home and all associated devices.<\/p>\n
