Tuya Smart, a global cloud platform service provider, has announced the integration of its smart ecosystem with Google Home APIs. This collaboration aims to enhance compatibility between smart devices and improve the user experience in intelligent living environments. The announcement was made during the Google I/O 2024 event.
The integration with Google Home APIs allows developers to create products that work easily with Google Home. Tuya, as an early access partner, participated in the pre-launch phase, offering feedback to developers worldwide. This move underscores Tuya’s dedication to maintaining an open and neutral approach in the smart home sector, strengthening its global leadership position.
By connecting with Google Home, Tuya is enabling its customers to integrate their devices with popular platforms. This ensures that all Tuya-enabled hardware can operate within the Google Home ecosystem, allowing users to set up smart scenarios with ease. The collaboration allows for cloud-to-cloud integration, which means users can share devices without extra network configuration. The Tuya-enabled app can manage devices that are also accessible through the Google Home app, providing a unified experience.
One practical example of this integration is the control of a Tuya-enabled smart cleaning robot. Users can turn off the robot with a simple action on either the Tuya-enabled app or the Google Home app, illustrating the convenience and simplicity offered by this partnership. This development reflects Tuya’s strategy of maintaining an open and neutral ecosystem while expanding opportunities for manufacturers globally.
Looking ahead, Tuya plans to continue its collaboration with partners like Google to develop smart products and solutions that promote industry growth and deliver improved living experiences. For more information, check out Tuya’s press release here.
