Google Home Mini is a smart speaker powered by the Google Assistant, so you can ask it questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Ok Google" to enjoy your entertainment, get answers from Google, tackle your day, and control your smart home. Google Home Mini works on its own or you can have a few around the house, giving you the power of Google anywhere."

Samsung SmartThings Water Leak Sensor: Stay informed of water leaks wherever you go with this sensor, which pairs with your existing SmartThings hub and your Apple® iOS, Android or Windows device. Just place the sensor next to your sump pump to receive mobile alerts if there's any excess water. The sensor also triggers a light or siren.

Easy to setup, but ignores you

Verified Purchase:Yes
Very easy to setup, tells you what is wrong and is easy to correct for issues.
Has a 'feature' where it will continue to run the HVAC to prevent damaging the unit. This needs to be watched, since it may run for far to long.

It seems to work well.
I have had it fail to work once, but then so did the mobile app, so it might be a hub issue.

Will this unit work with the Google Assistant? Will it control wall electric heaters? Can you disable the display and use only from a phone or tablet?

It will work with Assistant
It works like a normal thermostat, but won't work with High Voltage.
I'm using it with a Heat Pump.
The Display will auto-turn off and you can use it from a smart device, but you can't disable the display and it will come on when you walk by.
