Multiple Google home problems AGAIN

Here we go again! THESE ARE REPEAT PROBLEMS!

I have had enough of this CRAP. I have 37 total different devices by approximately 7 different manufacturers (2 Vizio TVs, 2 Monster Smart strips, 6 Monster Illumination light bars, 6 Merkury/Geeni bulbs & 1 camera, 16 Cync by GE dynamic bulbs, 3 Smartlife multy functional candle bulbs, 1 Atomi Smart Diffuser; each with their own respective app! ALL APPS & DEVICES ARE UP TO DATE!

 
Every single day in the last week Google has broke the connection of at least one device, as well as ALL of my routines multiple times. And yet no device is actually offline and each device works perfectly with its own respective app. As I said, each device and its respective app are up to date! It has been impossible to get things working right because every goddamn day something else is broken, especially my routines. Every **bleep** day this week I have had to reprogram and reset up something. Awful funny all these devices suddenly being offline 1 at a time considering the five different manufacturers. The only thing in common is Google.

Google will not control (including turn on) my 43" Vizio V series TV UNLESS it is already on! At the moment it has not bothered my 32" Vizio D series TV.

Google will NOT change colors of lights anymore UNLESS they are already on (the colors could be changed and Google would then turn them on after changing colors/scenes; colors are no longer accurate - white is not 100% white & incanedescent is not 100% incanedescent - manual adjustments have to be made - this is only happening on my Monster strips and light bars, and Smart Life candles.

Google continues to show my geeni WiFi camera offline until I actually click the geeni app - then it suddenly shows online.

OK Google is very erratic & sporadic now via my Samsung S21. On the Google Home & Mini Speaker it's also hit and miss. Suddenly the wrong devices have been answering for whatever reason.
 
Google somehow managed to "change" my routines - adding and removing devices! How is that even possible? Normal routines that I have set up are hit and miss at best AGAIN! Google preset routines are going off at the WRONG times for whatever reason AGAIN!
 
How do I know this is all on Google? Because each affected device remains "offline" according to Google for 2-3 days so resetting up during those few days does not work/help, then works again for a day then goes offline again and I have to once again reset it up. Other Google apps are messed up as well, nothing tied to Google is working right at all!
 
I've had enough of Google's problems! The last time this crap happened it took over a year to get everything working properly again! As well as the fact that the last time it happened was because Google was redesigning everything, yet they continued to tell us check this set that change this do that, but NOTHING helped/worked! I'm not a happy camper at all right now!

Woke up this morning to ALL my devices on for whatever reason! Ok Google would not shut them off - had to manually shut each device off with their own app! Google home had an update as well - after updating the app I tested it out on my TV & other devices - NOTHING CHANGED! That update did absolutely NOTHING!

Absolutely unacceptable at this point! EVERYTHING was actually working properly 1 week ago - including routines! Now the whole entire app AND routines are messed up AGAIN!

Day 11 of routines NOT working at all again! THIS IS A REPEAT PROBLEM! I'm SICK of this bull**bleep** Google! I spent 2 hours last night after work fixing my **bleep**ing routines, they were STILL working as of 1 PM CT - get home from work at midnight and they are broken again? F that and F Google!

Interesting - many complaints on Facebook, Google Play and right here in community help but not ONE reply from Google at all! Pretty sure Google is busy changing something which will create more headaches along the way. I'm absolutely fed up with the bs AGAIN!

MORE PROBLEMS tonight!

1. Asked Google to spell a word but Google spells the WRONG word - then after saying that's the wrong word and get the reply "Sure" - and proceeds to spell the WRONG word again!

2. VIZIO BUILT IN Google Chromecast is not working properly now!

3. Presence sensing is all jacked up again - which is causing ALL the routine failures!

4. Google Mini speaker lost connection to WiFi for some reason - had to reboot it.

5. Day 12 of routines NOT working properly - see presence sensing remark above!

6. Other Google apps NOT responding properly..

I GIVE UP ON GOOGLE - NOT WORTH THE EFFORT ANYMORE!

Man in The five years that I've had Google home I have never seen it this bad before! It can't get the basic questions right and when you try to correct Google it repeats the same answer, routines are extremely messed up worse than ever, trying to control devices with Google is a disaster because half the time Google shows them as offline... This is beyond bull**bleep** now - 13 **bleep**ing days!!!
