A:AnswerI have an iPhone and it's easy to setup. Download the "Google Home" app from the app store. While your phone is connected to wifi, plug in the Google Home and it will setup through the app. You can tell it where you live (for weather tracking), where you work (for traffic/commute tracking) and it'll be up and running in less than 5 mins.
A:AnswerI am not an expert, but the smart devices normally need a hub or bridge to work.GH can be used with some of these hubs like Smartthings. If the hub or bridge loses connection the device will lose connectivity, unless, the device is running locally on the hub/bridge. Running locally meaning it does not connect via Internet to the cloud. Hopefully someone with more experience in home automation can give you a more thorough answer.
A:AnswerSetup is handled via Google Home app on your Android or iPhone. The app will guide you through the process of connecting your Home device, after complete, you configure it to be tied to a specific google account, smart home devices, chromecast devices, and news preferences.
