If your lights don't appear, force close the Google Home app and try again. If your Philips Hue light bulbs are still not listed under “Devices” then follow these steps to relink your account. Adding via the Google Home app, you log in, then are prompted to “simply tap the big button” to authenticate. Tried short taps, long presses, hard presses, soft presses, nothing.
These instructions are out of date on March 15, 2018. The updated google home app on iOS does not have a “home control” menu option. Below are a list of popular commands you can say to changes the lights in your home via your Google assistant.
Use Gentle Sleep and Wake with your smart lights
Does not seem to be able to relink after unlinking. Link to rooms – Google use their own room groups so you will need to go through each bulb and tag it to a room. Click the bulb and then select a room, and click done. Below you can see all the bulbs now tagged to a room.

There is a hub, siren, keypad door sensor and two x PIR sensors. Everything is wireless except the hub which needs power and an ethernet connection. I purchased another door sensor separately and have two additional PIR sensors on the way.
How to Connect Philips Hue to Google Home
Update your settings here, then reload the page to see it. Nest protect will alert when it detects smoke or carbon monoxide and can be bought as a hard wired model, or battery only. Do you know what else I could do about it? It works but it’s pretty annoying to hear this every time you make a command. Press from the Google home application, tap onto the menu icon at the top on the left side of the application.
The control unit is really small - I took a picture of the new control unit Vs the older one I had. Dead easy to hide down the back of a cabinet it you want as you never really need to touch it. Modular alarm - you can add and remove accessories. No easy, or official way to wall mount the control hub.

Users can instruct their Philips Hue lights via the Google Assistant to sleep and wake immediately, meaning the Philips Hue lights will activate the sleep and wake process directly for the 30-minute duration. This functionality will work similarly to when you would like to wake up. Lights added – Once set up all your Hue bulbs and lights will be automatically shown. Login/Authorise – Once selected you may need to login to your Philips Hue account and authorise access for this app, you may also need to pair with the bridge depending on your set up.
One of the best parts of having a smart home setup is the convenience it brings to your everyday life. Walking into a room with your hands full? Busy cooking, and the light switch is across the kitchen? Just say "Hey Google" to control your lights and set them to any settings you like. It's worth noting at this point you can mount door sensors either by sticky pads or screws.
Use your voice to start Gentle Sleep and Wake
You will be redirected to your Philips Hue account page. Tap Yes to grant the Google Home app permission to control your Hue lights. The app will link Philips Hue to Google Assistant.
Read on to learn how you can switch commands or adjust Philip hues from the Google home application on your device. I tried syncing the goggle home mini with the philip lights for my mother, but when choosing philips hue from the long list it says “unable to connect check connection settings,” What do i have to do? I seen a nice amout of videos and let me tell you it is not as easy to set everything up like in the videos. For now, it seems like the Gentle Sleep & Wake feature only works with Hue smart lights, so if you use another brand of bulbs, you’re out of luck. Gentle Sleep & Wake is available starting today in English in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Singapore, and India on Google Home devices. If you're unable to control your Philips Hue light bulbs via voice commands through Google Nest or Home speaker or display, try the following.
And I paired the hub again to my Google Home. It’s easy to add several devices to your Google home application so that you can control them from your android or IOS device. To learn how to pair your Philips hue with Google home, you will need to sign in to your Philips hue account from the Google home application.
APP notifications on your phone work fine and you get a little house icon whever something happens on your notification banner. You can set it so all notifications appear from the app. I have manged to set up devices for zoning, named them, set the countdown timers, siren timings, LED control and various other behaviours without too much fuss. There's a door chime function whereby the hub emits a chime sound whenever entry points are used. The chime sound was initially set to "No Sound". I turned on the door chime for both door contact points and couldn't figure out why it wasn't making a noise until I went searching on the net and found someone who'd turned it on.
