Google is overdue an update to its smart home setup, and now we know when it'll come: October 1st. The company has teased some sort of launch or announcement for that day, promising that "Gemini is coming to Google Home."

Google has announced that users of the US and UK versions of the 3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat and the Nest Thermostat E can now schedule temperature adjustments using the Google Home app, allowing for easier scheduling without needing the dedicated Nest app.

On Thursday afternoon, many people with smart home setups connected to Google Home / Nest, or who are trying to stream music on Spotify, are coming up empty.

Google has rolled out updates to its Home app including picture-in-picture for Nest Cams on Google TV and enhanced smart home controls via the Gemini app.
