Restrikt smarthome acces to unknown users (guest)

Hi, i can restrikt Access to smarthome devices in the home app, on my house members.

 

But how i can restrikt Access to smarthome devices (like lamps, switches)  and prevent comands like "ok google turn all thinks / lights  on/off" from guests i need  that only users addes to the home  can do that.  So how can i restrict acces to smarthome devices and commanda like "turn all Things on/off" to guest(peoples that are not added to the home)

 

Its not funny if someone ask tot turn all thinks on and there wil be 40 devices turned on. Guests (also childs) doesn't know about that and last time they woud turn all light outside so they said (turn all lights on)  it was like Christmas in my house all the light were on its crazy that it cannot be restricted.  I need that only me and my wife can use that commands

Hi Micha_123,

Google Home and Nest speakers and displays are designed for easy use within a secure private home. The only ways to stop other people issuing commands is by either asking them not to do this or by switching the devices microphone off

Yes i had see it.

 

Not realy an solution, if you have childs (and the childs Friends)  and they means always if they are downfloor and they say "turn al things off" than they means that all loghts tv goes off. But there are much more devices they must stay ON.  Shuting down the microphone on. 6 devices every time is not realy an solution.

 

I need realy an setting where i can restrikt some devices if there is no voice match

Hey Micha_123,


I am sorry that this was not the most ideal answer. You are able to set parental controls and restrict your child to some features. I have found an article with more details on that. Please let me know if that helps, or if you have any questions from here.

I know but i can't set restrictions to unknown people (i lf i have friend or visit with childs home) they are not restricted

 

Why not able to set restrictions to people that are not added to my home?
