Hi, I was very positively surprised by todays newsletter. A feature I’ve been waiting on for a long time now just got added, direct integration with Homey from the google assistant. Now I can remove my cumbersome IFTTT sync to get that to work. I do have a question though, in the newsitem [https://support.athom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022832954?utm\_source=Homey+Newsletter&utm\_campaign=0f01af669f-EMAIL\_CAMPAIGN\_2017\_01\_05\_EN\_COPY\_01&utm\_medium=email&utm\_term=0\_ac5b24c2f6-0f01af669f-107092393&mc\_cid=0f01af669f&mc\_eid=76969bad59](https://support.athom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360022832954?utm_source=Homey+Newsletter&utm_campaign=0f01af669f-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_01_05_EN_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ac5b24c2f6-0f01af669f-107092393&mc_cid=0f01af669f&mc_eid=76969bad59) It describes how to enable synchronization. So I’ve first added Homey as a device to the google home app, then tried to perform this step in Homey, but under the google assistant settings there is simply only a button called “Connect” and pressing it opens the same newsletter item? I can’t find the “enable synchronization” option anywhere? ---

You need the mobile app 2.3.0 or later for this option. ---

Do you have to be in your own Wi-Fi to do this. Updated the app just now and now it says your homey is offline? When I install homey into Google homey Google says: I can’t update your settings check your connection. This was before I updated the app to 2.3 Update, never mind my message as my wifi is offline at home. 😠😠😫🤣🤣🤣🤣 ---
