Important: If you use the Nest app and haven’t migrated to a Google Account, you manage homes and people who share access to your home with the Nest app.
To manage people and permissions in the Google Home app, you must create a home. Once a home has been created, invite people to share control of the home and its devices.
For more convenience, share control of your home and devices with family and housemates. Everyone can get their own music and personal answers from Google Assistant devices. You can also save energy and make your home more secure when you set up automations that depend on whether someone is home or not.
Public Preview participants have more options for sharing permissions available to them. If someone from Public Preview invites you to share their home, you can accept. You don't need to be in Public Preview to accept, but you do need the newest version of the Home app.
