Good day,New to Google automation, starting simple. Basically have quite a few of the Sengled Smart bulbs, that are supposed to be compatible with Google home and Alexa, however, they have the zigbee marking on it. I've always used them with my Alexa...

Yes, I still have all of the Echo devices.They just aggravate me so much because they are so ignorant when you ask Alexa such an ordinary question. And then you might as well give up on a follow-up. But Gemini is so much more intelligent and helpful....

Oh I see. I appreciate you shedding some light on the issue for me. A little misleading with the use of the word hub. Please forgive my ignorance of the subject. Thanks again.

Well let me shoot this past you then. If I were to change to a different bulb, that would work with the Google home hub, and get away from these ones that I've had for years, What would be your suggestion??

So when you say it requires a hub, those bulbs require a separate hub as I was talking about? So the Google home hub is of no use in this situation

Okay I had already linked the Sengled app to the Google Home app. However, when I use these bulbs with the Alexa Echo Plus It had a built-in hub so it controlled all of these bulbs. However, I actually do not have that google hub yet it's not arrived...
