Google Home app is not available in Iran if you have any problem with the government just like  we people do, banning these apps only effect the people and makes our life's harder and holds us back, and its not just this case there is lots of other apps and options that they bare also banned in Iran but I don't understand the reason and I'm sure you either don't. I demand please make a consideration about your policies and rules. Thanks!

Hi kasra 6347

Companies trading internationally have to adhere to rules set down by their governments. It is not up to Google as to which countries it is allowed to trade with.

i have been using Google home mini for almost 3 years in Iran till recently it is not working anymore. I love this gadget and I used to use it in my smart home. But it is useless now. I believe this kind of banning just effect people not governments. People of Iran are baned both by their own government and also by foreign countries and companies.
