49 apps with a live Google Play listing · checked 29 September 2026
Android phones are a natural remote for the smart home: Google Home, Matter device setup built into Android, and home-screen widgets for lights and cameras. This page lists smart-home, plant and wildlife ID, pet care, home-improvement and weather apps that each have a live Google Play listing. An app is named under a feature only when its own Play description mentions it, and most device apps need the matching hardware.
