“Do you need a smartphone to use Google Home? I'd like to give this to someone who has WIFI and a tablet but not a smartphone. If a smartphone is only required for setup, I could use my smartphone to set it up. Will this limit ongoing functionality?”

• You can use an Android tablet or an ipad to set Google Home up as ling as they are on the same wifi network. Just download the Google Home app from the app store to the tablet and that should do it.
