No certain about the Google Home but I can tell you all the members of my family can adjust lights via the Amazon Echo we have. I'd assume the logic would be similar.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes they can. The Google Home can control your Hue lights independent of any device
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Google home will still work with your phone out of the house! No switch needed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Phillips Hue bulbs are attached to your network via the Hue hub so anyone on your network using a compatible device like the Google home will still be able to control the lights, even if you are away.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's my understanding that if they can give commands to the Google Home device they should be able to control the lights through it. I rarely use my phone to control the lights when I am home. Just make sure they know the name of your lights for each room.
