Google Home Mini是最受欢迎的智能助手之一。它体积小，设计时尚，功能广泛，使其成为许多人的理想选择。特别是如果他们不想展示Google Home的空气清新剂设计。
Google Home Mini如此受欢迎的另一个原因是它具有的功能数量。除了(Outside)基本的智能助手功能(assistant functionality)（即回答问题、播放音乐和控制智能家居设备）之外，Google Home Mini（或 Nest Mini(Google Home Mini—or Nest Mini)，如果您拥有最新版本）还可以做更多事情。
以下是您会喜欢 的最佳附加Google Home Mini功能。(Google Home Mini)
谷歌可以找到你的手机(Google Can Find Your Phone)
您在一天中多久忘记一次手机？有时它就像设备在沙发垫之间滑落一样简单，但有时您将其放下并忘记放置它的位置。它发生在每个人身上。
好消息是Google可以为您拨打电话。您所要做的就是将您的号码编入您的帐户，然后问：“嘿 Google(Hey Google)，找到我的手机。” 此功能适用于Android和iPhone(Android and iPhones)，因此您可以避免窃听您的配偶拨打您的电话。
谷歌可以执行日常工作(Google Can Perform Daily Routines)
拥有智能家居的主要好处之一是能够自动化许多平凡的任务。你可能不会想太多，但关掉每一盏灯（甚至要求谷歌(Google)单独做）会占用很多时间。
使用Google Home Mini，您可以创建在您说出特定短语时触发的例程。例如，您可以说“ Hey Google，早上好”，然后设备可以编程为打开家中的灯，开始冲泡咖啡，并开始您的早晨播放列表(morning playlist)。
您可以为自定义例程设置自定义短语。诸如“ Hey Google，游戏时间(game time)”之类的内容可以调暗灯光，调高已连接条形音箱(sound bar)的音量，然后打开 Xbox 享受美妙的游戏之夜。
谷歌可以向所有设备广播(Google Can Broadcast To All Devices)
有多少次你需要召集每个家庭成员，但找不到一个简单的方法来做到这一点而不对房子里的每个人大喊大叫？如果您在家中拥有多个Google Home Mini ，那么 Google Home Mini 的一项(Google Home Mini)功能(Google Home Mini feature)就是能够同时向每台设备广播。
您可以这样说，“嘿 Google(Hey Google)，广播说该吃饭了。” 下达命令后，每台设备都会响起晚餐铃声(dinner bell)。即使您不在家，您也可以像对讲机一样使用它。在您的手机上告诉Google 助理(Google Assistant)您要广播您正在回家的路上(way home)，会将消息传递给家中的每台设备。
谷歌可以成为白噪声机器(Google Can Be A White Noise Machine)
许多人发现如果没有某种背景声音——电视、吊扇(ceiling fan)或白噪声机器(noise machine)——就无法入睡。如果您属于这些阵营之一，您的Google Home Mini可以提供帮助。您可以要求Google播放各种声音，设备会做出响应。
声音也不仅限于白噪声。您可以询问特定的曲目，例如雨声或森林的声音。无论什么样的环境噪音可以帮助您获得最佳睡眠， Google(Google)播放它的几率都高于平均水平。
谷歌可以用作电话(Google Can Function As A Phone)
如果您已将联系人链接到您的Google 帐户(Google account)，Google Home Mini具有免提功能。这很简单。您只需说“嘿 Google(Hey Google)，给妈妈打电话(call mom)”，设备就会拨打您妈妈的号码。
最棒的是，谷歌(Google)的语音识别功能(Voice Recognition function)意味着它会识别普通用户的声音。由于每个人的手机里都有“妈妈”，谷歌(Google)可以区分谁在跟它说话，并根据说话者呼叫正确的“妈妈”。
谷歌可以成为个人助理(Google Can Be A Personal Assistant)
你多久放下一些东西，然后对自己说：“我会忘记它在哪里？” 不要试图记住你把东西放在哪里，只需告诉谷歌(Google)。如果你说，“嘿 Google(Hey Google)，我的备用钥匙在我的办公桌抽屉里(desk drawer)”，Google会记住的。
当您开始寻找钥匙但在任何地方都找不到时，只需询问Google钥匙在哪里，它就会告诉您上次将钥匙放在哪里。
谷歌可以调节电视音量(Google Can Adjust The TV Volume)
遥控器放错地方了？不用担心，只需让Google打开电视、播放您喜爱的节目或调节音量即可。如果您将Chromecast插入电视背面，则您的Google Home Mini可以充当遥控器。
如果您已将流媒体服务与您的Google 帐户(Google account)或 Chromecast 相关联，则您可以流式传输特定的剧集、跳过您不喜欢的剧集，以及仅凭您的声音进行更多操作。
Google Home Mini是一款出色的工具，价格也(price point)同样平易近人。许多人认为它低于标准，因为它是Nest Mini之前的型号，但是这两种设备之间没有有价值的差异。
如果您正在寻找一款实用且价格合理的智能助手，可在家中使用（甚至可用作办公室的蓝牙扬声器），请尝试选择(Bluetooth speaker)Google Home Mini。你不会失望的。
7 Google Home Mini Features You’ll Love
The Google Home Mіni is one of the most popular smart assistants. It’s a small size, has a sleek design, and a wide range of functionality which makes it an appealing option for many people. Especially if they don’t want the air freshener design of the Google Home on display.
Another reason why the Google Home Mini is such a popular option is due to the number of functions it has. Outside of its basic smart assistant functionality (that is, answering questions, playing music, and controlling smart home devices), the Google Home Mini—or Nest Mini, if you have the most recent version) can do much more.
Here are the best additional Google Home Mini features that you will love.
Google Can Find Your Phone
How often do you lose track of your phone throughout the day? Sometimes it’s as simple as the device slipping between the couch cushions, but sometimes you set it down and forget where you put it. It happens to everyone.
The good news is that Google can ring your phone for you. All you have to do is program your number into your account and then ask, “Hey Google, find my phone.” This function works with both Android and iPhones, so you can avoid bugging your spouse to call your phone.
Google Can Perform Daily Routines
One of the major benefits of owning a smart home is the ability to automate many mundane tasks. You might not think much of doing it, but flipping off every light (or even asking Google to do it individually) takes up a lot of time.
With Google Home Mini, you can create routines that will trigger when you say a specific phrase. For example, you can say, “Hey Google, good morning,” and the device can be programmed to turn on lights throughout the home, begin brewing your coffee, and start your morning playlist.
You can set up custom phrases for custom routines. Something like, “Hey Google, game time” could dim the lights, crank up the volume on a connected sound bar, and turn on your Xbox for a great night of gaming.
Google Can Broadcast To All Devices
How many times have you needed to gather every member of the family, but couldn’t find an easy way to do so without yelling at everyone in the house? If you have more than one Google Home Mini inside the home, one Google Home Mini feature is the ability to broadcast to every device at once.
You can say something like, “Hey Google, broadcast that it’s time for dinner.” After you give the command, a dinner bell will ring from each device. You can also use it like an intercom, even if you aren’t at home. Telling Google Assistant on your phone that you want to broadcast that you’re on the way home will pass the message to each device within the home.
Google Can Be A White Noise Machine
Many people find it impossible to fall asleep without some kind of sound in the background—a TV, a ceiling fan, or a white noise machine. If you fall into one of these camps, your Google Home Mini can help. You can ask Google to play a variety of sounds, and the device will respond.
The sounds aren’t limited solely to white noise, either. You can ask for specific tracks, like the sound of rain or the sounds of the forest. No matter what ambient noise helps you sleep best, there’s a better than average chance that Google can play it.
Google Can Function As A Phone
If you have linked your contacts to your Google account, Google Home Mini features hands-free functionality. It’s simple. All you have to do is say, “Hey Google, call mom,” and the device will dial your mom’s number.
Best of all, Google’s Voice Recognition function means that it will recognize the voices of regular users. Since everyone has “mom” in their phone, Google can distinguish who is speaking to it and call the right “mom” based on the speaker.
Google Can Be A Personal Assistant
How often do you set something down and think to yourself, “I’m going to forget where that is?” Instead of trying to remember where you put something, just tell Google. If you say, “Hey Google, my spare key is in my desk drawer,” Google will remember.
When you start to look for your key and can’t find it anywhere, just ask Google where it is and it will tell you where you last placed it.
Google Can Adjust The TV Volume
Misplaced the remote? No worries—just ask Google to turn the TV on, to stream your favorite show, or to adjust the volume. If you have a Chromecast plugged into the back of your TV, your Google Home Mini can act as a remote.
If you have linked your streaming services to your Google account or your Chromecast, you can stream specific episodes, skip over those you don’t like, and much more with just your voice alone.
The Google Home Mini is a fantastic tool with an equally approachable price point. Many people see it as subpar because it is a previous model than the Nest Mini, but there are no worthwhile differences between the two devices.
If you’re looking for a useful, affordable smart assistant to use around the home (or even to serve as a Bluetooth speaker in an office), try and pick up a Google Home Mini. You won’t be disappointed.
