- A recent Google Home update appears to have prevented some users from accessing their security camera feeds.
- Some users have had partial success using voice commands as a workaround.
- Google support acknowledged to one user that the issue was global, although not all users were affected.
Google’s smart home ecosystem is supposed to make life more convenient, but a recent Google Home update seems to have done the opposite for some users — leaving them unable to access their security camera feeds.
Reports of the issue surfaced on Reddit, with multiple users saying their devices currently fail to load feeds when prompted. Some have managed to get around the problem by using voice commands instead of pressing the live button on the screen, but others report that even this workaround is inconsistent.
