A:AnswerYes, google home can be made as an bluetooth speaker,
Give voice instruction "Enable bluetooth pairing" voice command to make the device enter into bluetooth pairing mode and now you can connect your phone or laptop to connect to the google-home-speaker via bluetooth and use it as a bluetooth speaker
A:Answerno, unless you play xm on your phone and cast it the google home. you will not be able to change stations but you will be able to change the volume and make it stop. You must change stations through the phone. Just wanted to make that clear. :)
A:AnswerYes it does. The Google Home is far superior to the Echo when it comes to knowledge! It has the power of Google.... What ever your phone/computer google can do the Home can do and more.
A:AnswerIFTTT is a website that can communicate between different devices and perform actions based on certain "states". It stands for If This Than That. If you have a Google Home and want it to communicate to a device which isn't supported, you can use IFTTT. You have to log into IFTTT, tell it your Google Home information, then the other devices information, and IFTTT will pass along the instructions. For instance, before Wemo devices were supported by Google Home, I used IFTTT to control the Wemo switch.
A:AnswerAs far as I know, it responds to both OK Google and Hey Google. I've not seen anywhere in the app that allows you to change that. So far only have heard female voice without accent.
A:AnswerYou don't need to buy anything. If you want it to work your TV I believe you need a Google Chrome cast. But for music and questions this is all you need.
A:AnswerThere is no Aux audio output jack. It does not connect via bluetooth. It connects to your home's Wi-Fi network the same way a chromecast device does. Having a chromecast is optional, as you can have audio come directly from the Home device, or have it played through a chromecast connected TV.
