Google home app categories removal from favourites tab

There is no option to hide/ remove categories from the Google Home App. These catagories like Climate, Camera, Lighting are auto created by google, but I dont find that useful.

Is there a way to remove them from favorite tab of app.

I think they're very useful because if you're looking to turn on a light you're not having scroll through every Room on the Devices page to find it.

I also change the device type on sockets to Dehumidifier, Humidifier, Air Conditioner or Fan so that they can all be easily found in 'Climate'. Also these plugs will then be able to turned on or off after a certain amount of time with a voice command.

Is there a way to hide or at least rearrange the categories widgets ??

I think probably removing all your lights and cameras from Google Home or putting them in a different Home might do that, but that's extreme.

Hello Aks25, 

 

Thank you so much for posting in this community. I understand that you are interested in removing the categories tab from the Google Home app. It's a pleasure to share more information with you. 

Regarding your question, this option is not available to remove on the Google Home app; therefore, I suggest sending feedback; your opinion is very important. We'll carefully review requests for potential inclusion in future updates.
