Hisense Gets Google Home Integration in ConnectLife App
So, apparently Google didn’t have much to say about the smart home at their recent developers conference. But that didn’t stop Hisense, the TV and smart-appliance maker, from making moves to integrate new Google Home APIs into their ConnectLife app. This means that third-party smart home devices can now be part of the Hisense ecosystem. Pretty cool, right?
Back in December 2024, Hisense made the bold decision to open up their ConnectLife app to third-party products. And now, fast forward to today, they are announcing that they will be incorporating the latest Google Home APIs into the app by this fall. This means that users will have the ability to connect a wide range of third-party smart home devices to create a more seamless smart home experience. Exciting stuff!
Hisense is really pushing the envelope with this integration. By allowing users to blend Hisense products with third-party devices, they are creating some pretty innovative home responses. For example, imagine your air conditioner automatically adjusting based on data from third-party air quality sensors. Or picture your smart lights giving you visual notifications when your Hisense refrigerator’s VersaTemp drawer reaches the perfect temperature for chilling your drinks. It’s all about making life easier and more enjoyable for consumers, right?
Not really sure why this matters, but the new version of the Hisense ConnectLife app is set to launch this fall for both Android and iOS platforms. And while Google didn’t make a big deal about their new Home APIs during their recent conference, they quietly announced them on May 15. These APIs weren’t even mentioned in the 100 announcements Google made at the conference. Talk about flying under the radar!
So, it looks like Hisense is really making moves in the smart home space. With the integration of Google Home APIs into their ConnectLife app, they are aiming to create a more seamless and integrated smart home experience for users. Who knows what the future holds for smart home technology, but it’s clear that Hisense is on the cutting edge of innovation. Exciting times ahead for smart home enthusiasts!
