Hey Google, Thank you for Making my Life Easier

Hello Google

My life is pretty hectic and anything that I can do to make my life even a little bit easier, is a welcome thing.  Several years ago we discovered Google Home assistant. We started off with a few Google Nest mini devices and expanded to include a Google Nest (with a screen).  Now we have several devices in our home and of course on our phone/computers/tablets.   I have found that using Google has been extremely helpful in my chaotic, busy life as a parent.  From helping me keep track of things I need, places I need to be, soothing music and ease of setting alarms and controlling our smart home devices.  I only access a fraction of the commands that the Google Assistant is capable of.

Here are several useful google commands to help make your life easier.

 

“Hey Google….. Set an alarm  (i,e. for weekdays at 7am) ”

“Hey Google……Add tomatoes to the shopping list”
