Google has issued a long-awaited feature for Google Home: support for multiple users. In an update rolling out today, up to six people will be able to connect their Google account to a Google Home, and the unit will try to distinguish each person’s voice from the other users connected to the device. Therefore, each person will be able to get access to their schedule, playlists, and more. PhoneDog reports: Support for multiple users is rolling out in the U.S. now and will be available in the U.K. in the coming months. To know if the feature is available to you, launch the Google Home app and look for a card that says “Multi-user is available.” You can also click the icon in the upper right corner, find your Google Home, and select “Link your account.” From there, you’ll train the Google Assistant to recognize your voice so that it knows it’s you when you’re talking and not the other people with connected accounts. You’ll say “Ok Google” and “Hey Google” twice each.
