The Google Assistant is already integrated with a host of smart home entertainment devices, including the best soundbar of 2020, the Sonos Arc, and the voice assistant could be coming to even more devices very soon. Google has announced that it will openly allow developers to sign in to Google Assistant as part of a new initiative to increase compatibility with smart home entertainment devices. The announcement comes ahead of Google's smart home event on July 8, where we expect to hear about the rumored Google Nest Home (or Google Home 2, if you prefer) and perhaps Chromecast Ultra 2. Smart home appliances include AV receivers, streaming boxes, streaming sticks, sound bars and wireless speakers. While many of these devices already support Google Assistant, this is the first time the tech giant has released documentation, allowing the smartest brands in the house to integrate the voice assistant into their products. .
