Window coverings with Google Home support

Smartblinds can not only be connected and controlled with Apple. You can also turn your electric roller blind into a Google Home blind via Google's smart home platform. This way, you can integrate your Smartblinds into your Google Home and control all smart devices, including your Google roller blinds through one app. What the advantages of a Google Home blind are, we explain.

The benefits of Smartblinds
Smartblinds' smart window blinds are electrically operated. This means that you can operate your blinds remotely, for instance with your smartphone. This means you no longer have to bother with that time-consuming tugging on your roller blind cord. You can simply move your blind from your couch. Our window coverings contain a smart motor. With normal use you only need to charge this motor once or twice a year. This can be done with a USB-C cable. Because the motor has a rechargeable battery, your Google home blind does not need a constant supply of power from a power point. But how do you change your smart blind into a Google Home blind?

Google Home support
By adding Smartblinds to your Google Home, you can control your smart blinds even smarter. Through Google Home, you can give voice commands to your blinds by interacting with the smart assistant ''Google Assistant''. In addition, via the Google Home app, it will be possible to add your smart Google blinds to your smart home scenes. This makes your Smartblinds work together with other smart devices in your home. For example, set your blinds to open automatically at 7:30 in the morning, while your smart lights in your room slowly turn on! This way, you wake up in peace! Are you already more advanced in your smart home? Make sure your coffee maker is also added to your Google Home via, for example, Eve Energy. As a result, you come downstairs in the morning, and your coffee maker is already warmed up!

To turn Smartblinds into Google Home shades, choose the Eve Motionblinds Matter motor while configuring your Smartblinds. This motor is supported by the Matter protocol, allowing you to add your blinds directly to Google's smart home app, without a bridge.

Google's Smart Hub

Like many other smart home platforms, Google has its own devices to support the smart home experience. Through that hub, all smart home devices in the home are connected. Google has a number of smart hubs that allow you to control your entire smart home. These hubs are so-called Thread border routers. These work alongside Matter via the Thread protocol, which strengthens the connection between your devices, thus enhancing and speeding up the response and connection of your devices. The following smart hubs are perfect for controlling your Smartblinds: the Google Nest Hub (2nd generation), the Nest Hub Max and the Nest WiFi Pro. The picture shows the Google Nest Hub (2nd generation). With this hub, you set your Google Home curtains in motion super fast.

The possibilities of a Google Home blind
When you turn your Smartblinds into blinds with Google Home support, you will have multiple control options for your Smartblinds. Besides the pull control and smart control via smartphone, it will also be possible to control your automated Google Home blinds by voice via Google Home. Just give your Google Assistant on your smart speaker a simple instruction like "Hey Google, close my blind" and your Google Home blind will do what you told it to do. Super convenient and easy!

Besides voice control, you can also add Smartblinds to scenes in your Google Smart Home. Scenes make it possible for multiple smart home devices to work together in harmony. For example, at 8:30 in the evening set all the Google Home blinds to close, the smart home lighting to dim down to a percentage of 30% and the smart air conditioner in your bedroom to cool your room down to a perfect sleeping climate! The perfect scene for when you want to go to bed in an hour!
