Being able to play music stored on your phone or tablet through the Google Home speaker is a useful addition to its bag of
tricks and opens up a host of new audio possibilities.


Step 1
❱ Open the Google Home app and tap the
name of the device you want to connect
with via Bluetooth. In the top right corner
of the device info card, tap the device
settings menu and then find the Paired
Bluetooth devices heading and tap it. In
the next screen, tap the Enable Pairing
Mode button.


Step 2
❱ Now open the Bluetooth settings on
your mobile device and turn Bluetooth
on. The device will scan for available
connections, and you should see the
name you gave your speaker appear in
the list of discovered Bluetooth devices.
Tap the speaker name to pair the devices
using Bluetooth.

Step 3
❱ If the Google Home speaker is paired
with multiple speakers, it will default to
the most recently paired device. You can
tell Google Home to connect by saying
“Hey Google, connect to Bluetooth,” or
you can change which speaker is paired
by opening the Bluetooth settings on
your device.
