I have a google speaker in the lounge playing music and I have the screen one in the kitchen. Now I know you can pair them so I touched the screen one in the kitchen, went with my gut and now there's music playing simultaneously from that too! I didn't press any wrong buttons and it took less than 20 seconds!

This is a win for me. 🥇

Creating a home group with smart speakers was one of the benefits of them. It's great walking between rooms and having the music 'follow' you. I wish there were more WiFi speakers out there

Is that what they're called! Lol

Everything here is connected to them. The lights, TV, sound system. A bit useless on me though.
