@reckless.bsky.social Nilay, I know you’ve said it before but I must ask again. What product bridges Google/Nest with Apple Home and is actually reliable?

Not a product really - the gsh plugin for homebridge. It works, you just have to be the sysadmin for it and keep it maintained / updated

Wait so sorry I'm confused. Looking at gsh plugin. "Control your supported Homebridge accessories from any Google Home speaker or the Google Home mobile app." I thought this was to get Google products into Apple's Home app? github.com/homebridge-p...

Oh it’s been a long time since I used this - I used it to bridge google devices into home. Sounds like they’ve changed it and added a subscription. What are you trying to accomplish?

Google cameras in Apple’s Home app so I can watch my kids on the HomeView. Easy solution is to buy new cameras haha.

Oh! You out everything into the Google Home app. I’m curious about putting everything in Apple Home so I can view cameras on the HomeView.

The other way around! We are a home app family because my wife won’t use anything that isn’t in control center lol

Also the wife approval committee is crucial. I get it.

Thank you. I got a raspberry pi for Homebridge and got so lost in the weird Google App Engine configurations.
