Google Home Gemini Identifies Pets by Name for Premium Users, Expands to 10 More Markets

Summary
Google is rolling out Gemini for Home updates that let compatible cameras identify pets as named family members, so responses can say “Fido is walking in the kitchen” instead of just “a dog.”
Google Home Premium Advanced subscribers must add a pet’s name in the Ask Home section, and the feature works only with compatible Nest or Gemini-powered cameras.
Gemini’s home-summary feature is also widening beyond US early access to all markets where Gemini for Home is available, answering prompts such as what happened during the day or whether garbage cans are outside.
Germany is joining Gemini for Home Early Access this week, extending Google’s recent push to make Home cameras more personalized after its last update added smarter automation tools.
