What is GHomeBar?
A lightweight, macOS menu bar utility for Google Home. Control your smart home devices on your Mac, without keeping a browser tab open. Based on Google Home web version.
Features:
Everything Google Home for Web offers, but in your menu bar:
- Manage Devices
- Start/Create Automations
- Control cameras
Why?
There was no way to manage my smart home devices from macOS... until last year, when Google released a web version of the Google Home app. Still, opening a browser just to turn on a light was cumbersome.
GHome Bar opens a small webview pointing to home.google.com in your menu tray. Once you log in, you can manage your smart devices easily.
