⚠️ P1 Systemic Regression: The 4 Core Failures of Gemini in Google Home

The time for polite feedback is over. The failures we are experiencing are not random glitches; they constitute a P1 (Very High Priority) systemic breakdown due to the rushed Gemini integration.

I have submitted a detailed escalation directly to Google's engineering team, and the user base needs to unite on these four critical issues to force a fix. If you are experiencing any of these, UPVOTE this post and COPY the list into your own "Send Feedback" report in the app.

The four core P1 issues crippling smart home reliability are:

1. Routine Execution Failure: Gemini's LLM is misinterpreting routine voice triggers as conversational queries, causing automations to fail completely.
2. Basic Device Control Unreliability: Simple commands (lights, media) are failing intermittently due to connectivity errors.
3. Presence Sensing Failure: The critical Home/Away logic is fundamentally broken, causing automations to misfire or fail to trigger.
4. App UI/Setup Inaccessibility: Users cannot reliably access the "Add New Device" or "Works with Google" sections.

We need this visibility to force a code-level fix. Please share your experiences on these specific points below.
