Voice Control Guide

Thank you for purchasing your Merkury Smart home product. Make sure your devices are already set up using the app, then follow these steps.

Name and Control Each Device by Voice

• ✅ Works with Google Home
• ✅ Works with Alexa

Google Home Integration

To control your Merkury Smart bulbs, plugs, or surge protectors, just say "OK Google," or "Hey Google," and ask. Make sure your devices are already set up using the app.

Things you can say:

• "Hey Google, show me the Living Room Camera."
• "Hey Google, what's on Kid's Room Camera?"

Stream to:

• Google Home Hub, Google Home Smart Displays, Google Nest Hub, and any Google Chromecast-enabled TV, screen, or PC.

Setup Steps:

01. Open Google Home App

Open the Google Home app and go to Home Control in the menu.

02. Add Device

Tap the '+' button.

03. Select Partner

Choose "Merkury Smart" from the list of Home Control partners.

04. Authorize Account

Authorize your account with Google Home using the username and password from your Merkury Smart app.

Now your Google Home app and Merkury Smart devices are linked! You're now able to say "Hey Google" and control your Merkury Smart devices.

At any time, go into the "Home Control" section of the Google Home app to set nicknames and rooms for your devices. You can rename your devices in the Merkury Smart app, and Google Home will refer to them by the same name. So if you rename a smart bulb to "Living Room" or a nickname like "Blossom," then Google Home will use that same name later on. You can always give it a nickname using the Google Home app as well. You can also assign bulbs to a specific room, like "Bedroom" or "Kitchen." Google Home will be able to control devices by room.

Amazon Alexa Integration

To control your Merkury Smart bulbs, plugs, or surge protectors, just ask Alexa. Make sure your devices are already set up using the app.

Things you can say:

• "Alexa, show Living Room Camera."
• "Alexa, show me the kids room Camera."

Search for Merkury Smart then tap Enable.

03. Authorize Account

Authorize your account with Smart Home Skills using the username and password from your Merkury app.

04. Discover Devices

Choose "Discover Devices." After a few seconds your Merkury Smart devices will be displayed under Smart Home in the Alexa app.

You can rename your devices in the Merkury Smart app, and Alexa will refer to them by the same name. So if you rename a smart bulb to "Living Room" or a nickname like "Blossom," then Alexa will use that same name later on. Alternatively, you can create an Alexa group, like "Bedroom" or "Downstairs," and add the device to the group. Alexa will recognize the group name in the Alexa app, or the device name in the Merkury Smart app.
