Google Home Update:
It seems like a long time since I gave an update and I know the frustration is running high. Please, please understand that the team working on Google Home is pushing daily to get it done. We used every trick in the book to make progress and being able to bring it to you.
I’ve told many times internally that, if it would not have been required by so many of you, I would have dropped the development of that feature a long time ago. But because I made a promise that I would bring that feature to you, because I saw the amount of people that everyday are asking to join the beta, there was no stopping despite all the difficulties that we had to face. And talking about the beta, let me tell you one thing: you can give a huge thank you to @UserCustomerGwen for the massive amount of work that it has been to collect your email one by one and aggregating them. It was no small fit by any means.
But let’s get back to the feature and where we are standing. We had several meetings with Google and they are telling us that our application is looking good and the integration is now complete. Because so many of you have trusted us, they had to apply special reviews to our application and that is partially the reason for all the delays. The other reasons is that a couple of features required for the approval where not fully developed on our side. For example, when the camera is offline, the Google Nest Hub would still try to connect instead of returning the proper error message… Now, it seems that we are at the point where all has been taken care. So what does it means for the release:
1 - If nothing gets in the way, we should be able to release before the end of May. I know, famous last words… 
2 - We have to stop onboarding people for the beta and start focusing on our launch sequence.
3 - We will have to stop the beta in a few days and it means that you might loose the feature until we release.
4 - Once we are releasing the feature, you might have to redo the enrollment. Thankfully, it will be more straightforward than the beta instructions.
