Google Home Introduces 'Favorites' Android Widget and Wear OS Tile for Improved Smart Home Control

The Google Home app on Android is getting a new homescreen widget and Wear OS Tile called 'Favorites'. This widget can show smart home devices, automations, and actions in a grid on the homescreen, either matching the existing Favorites tab or having a custom layout. The Favorites Tile on Wear OS can show up to five devices with similar functionality. Both updates are rolling out now.
