The reason your mower can be operated via the touch screen in Google Home but not through Google Assistant voice could be due to several factors:

1. Google Assistant Voice Integration: Not all devices are fully integrated with Google Assistant for voice commands. While Google Home allows you to control devices via its app (like the touch screen), the voice integration might require additional setup or be unsupported for certain devices.


2. Device Compatibility: Your mower might support touch controls via the Google Home app but not voice commands, either due to a limitation in the mower's firmware or its integration with Google Assistant.


3. Voice Command Setup: Sometimes, even if a device is compatible with Google Assistant, it requires specific voice commands to be set up. Ensure that your voice commands are correctly recognized and that the device is linked to Google Assistant.


4. Permissions or Settings Issue: Check the permissions in both the Google Home app and the Google Assistant settings. Sometimes, devices need permission granted in both places to function properly through voice commands.


5. Network or Connectivity Problems: Voice commands might not work if there are network issues, while the app can still control the device via the touch screen because it doesn’t rely on voice processing.

 

Make sure your mower's app is up to date and that both Google Home and Google Assistant are properly configured to recognize and control your device via voice.
