Google has acknowledged the issue, though.<\/p>\n<p>User Finleykendall posted on the Google Home subreddit to say that their iOS Home widget had stopped working. Tapping any of the routines in the widget no longer triggers those routines, instead opening the Google Home app to its home screen. As of writing, one other user has commented to say that they\u2019re experiencing the same issue.<\/p>\n<p>The official GoogleNestCommunity account has replied to the post, saying that the Google Home team is aware of the problem and \u201cworking to fix it ASAP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Are you using Google Home on iOS?
