TL;DR
- Google recently launched a new Home Brief feature for Google Home that summarizes daily home activity using camera footage.
- Some early users say the feature isn’t functioning accurately, reporting ghost sightings and misidentifying animals and objects.
- The feature is still in early access and costs $10/month as part of Google’s Home Premium plan.
Google recently rolled out a major update to Google Home. Home Brief is one of the new Gemini-powered features that arrived with that update. It’s designed to give users a quick overview of their day by automatically identifying key household events and summarizing hours of footage into a short, easy-to-digest recap. The idea sounds promising, but it appears the feature isn’t working the way it should for everyone.
