Lenovo Smart Display Full Setup Video - Duration: 1:38:12.

Hello Automaters! Thanks for tuning in again I'm back with another full setup

video here with the Lenovo Smart Display now I have a giant 10 inch smart display

to set up here today get it opened up and fully set up but what these videos

are about are they're intended to be a resource for you to come back and forth

over time as you want to set up different components so go ahead

bookmark this video bookmark the playlist that it's in as well and go

ahead and down in the description below you're going to find different time

codes that allow you to click on and skip back and forth between the

different parts of the video to help you set up this product fully so let's get

this opened up and set up fully the Lenovo Smart Display so what's amazing

about this product is just the sheer size so you can see I could barely fit

it in the screen here with my little GoPro camera there but ultimately this

is a giant box that we're gonna get opened up here today so on the bottom of

the box here is actually how you get this opened and again we can barely see

this thing so I'm actually going to turn it towards the big camera here so that

is a massive massive device and as you take it out it is it does have all the

wrapping on it there are of course some manuals that yet you get in the box and

then the power adapter as well so that's really all you're getting and then

otherwise it's just styrofoam inside the box so we don't need that let's get rid

of it all right now you can see I took a little picture here up on the phone

screen but ultimately what this is saying is that it is 50 or 60 Hertz

capable so that's international market ready and 100 to 240 volt ready as well

now this conversion is going to twenty volts so that's a little bit of a

different conversion you know not something that we see generally on

devices like this the smart display itself we're gonna run through the

physical features in a moment but it just had the plastic wrapping on it that

I had to take off there so let's talk a little bit about the physical features

now obviously that is a nice big screen there that you have access to that's

fantastic on the top here you can see a couple of

voice sorry the volume control buttons here and this is your mute microphone

button now you can see that there is a physical stand at the back of this and

this is your power port way back here so that's what you have on this device now

on the side here you can see a physical switch and this actually allows you to

cover up the camera and it's a little bit difficult to move if you're not

directly on it but I don't know if you can see it there's a little orange tint

in there and trying to move it back and forth a little here there's a little

orange tint in here that shows that I've hidden the actual camera so so this

camera here that you have on the device it actually allows you to do google duo

video display calls so that's one of the really great features about this device

now there's also a bunch of microphone ports and there is a light sensor on

this device as well but we'll get to that now the one last thing I want to

show you before we really get into the setup on the device here or get it

plugged in and get it set up is this and this is a really important feature as

far as I'm concerned this allows you to do portrait style video calls and I

think that's again really important I really like this thought in terms of the

design from Lenovo so I've just plugged in my device and we're going to start

here basically with the Google home application and for the balance of the

video here for when you need it you're going to see the smart display sitting

over here and we're going to continue to work within the Google home application

here I also have some Google home devices sitting over here as well that

will work with in terms of multi Audio and some other features to get

started download the Google home app on a phone or tablet so there you go now if

you were watching right as this device basically booted up it said set up one

device it's showing up in my application now you don't have to have the

application open when you first start or plug in the Lenovo Smart Display but it

doesn't hurt and then you can see it's a set up one device if you didn't have

that there is an Add button right here and you can use that Add button to go

ahead and just simply add a device so let me show you how to actually go

through that method you could hit the setup device button there or you can hit

the setup device button here now this is a Google home type of device you say set

up a new device and now we're choosing a home to put it within now that home for

you probably it probably only says one home or you might have to create a new

home just create a name for that as your home to start yourself off here with

this device you don't need to worry about that too much now it's going

through and it's looking for devices and one of the struggles or one of the

biggest struggles is Wi-Fi so we're gonna talk about some Wi-Fi

troubleshooting in a minute but it should find your device right away if it

doesn't you probably have some kind of device right next to this that's

broadcasting Wi-Fi or interfering with the device so in general keep your phone

and the device relatively close together they don't need to be side by side and

don't have a ton of other devices next to it that are getting in the way of

that broadcast so it's broadcasting a Wi-Fi signal right now so we're going to

tap on that and just hit next so the first screen that popped up did

we see this code yes we do we see it over there and do we want to help

improve Google Assistant's Smart Display so this is basically send stats and and

crash reports and things I usually say no and the reason for that is I have too

many of these devices in my home so how many reports and statistics do I want to

be sending here now the Google Assistant smart just

for me this is showing up likely it's not showing up for you this is basically

it was it was put or it was built in a in a different country than mine it was

built in the US and sent to me here now I'm in Canada by the way so this device

where is it physically in my home now this is going to end up in my kitchen

and that's what I'll say the smart display the Lenovo Smart Display is a

really good placement for i have a number of videos on the channel that

talk about how you can use this device as you know really helpful in your

kitchen and there's some new features now i'm just going to hit next and now

I'm choosing Wi-Fi my Wi-Fi network now you will choose your Wi-Fi network and

then it will require a password and so what I want to tell you is it's not

going to ask me for my password it will ask you for yours and you'll have to

input that now this is a good point to break and I'm gonna take you over to a

different video where I talked about some Wi-Fi troubleshooting steps about a

Google home hub or a Google home Mini but ultimately this is very similar know

if you did struggle for any reason getting your Wi-Fi set up here's a

couple of things you can do there's not a ton that Google's going to kind of

give out here or tell you you can do my device is going through an update so

just keep that in mind here as I'm as I'm talking but what I'll tell you is

that you need an iOS 9 point 1 or greater or an Android 4.4 or greater

device to get that connection process to occur correctly another thing that

you're going to want to make sure you know if you've struggled here get this a

little closer to your router just for that initial setup there after it should

be ok and you're also not going to want a ton of devices sitting right next to

it you know that our Wi-Fi broadcasters or Wi-Fi capable as well so if you have

a bunch of Wi-Fi devices on the 2.4 gigahertz band sitting right next to

this that could interfere some other things that and Google tells you this

rate on their support website the tell you basically restart your router

restart the wireless so turn off that wireless basically the signal from your

router turn that on turn it back on and as it's coming back up you know you

might have dumped some of the items off of your Wi-Fi network and that might

just help you to get this initial connection going on if you are

struggling with that the other thing you can do is switch the connection to a

five gigahertz setup basically with your router now that would allow you then to

set this device up as a five gigahertz so it is a dual band device now just a

couple of other things in general network congestion is going to be your

biggest issue but finally if you really are struggling here and you can't get

this connected support Google comm head there have a quick chat let them walk

you through the troubleshooting steps and I think it'll become fairly clear ok

now continuing on this is the partion where we set up the Google Assistant and

my device is actually physically updating now as I do set up the Google

Assistant on the device now Google Assistant is what answers all of your

queries your questions any commands you have for the device this is physically

what is telling you answering anything you do with a device alright so my

device has started updating as a result and we're going to set up the Google

Assistant as the next part now the Google Assistant is what physically

powers the device are it answers all of your questions this is really the brains

behind the Lenovo Smart Display so we're going to go ahead and hit next here this

is really just telling you some information about your privacy about the

partners that Google works with and how they use some of that data so go ahead

and read that stuff because it is important for you now I'm just hitting

next or I've just moved on to the next screen voice match you know what

basically what it's doing for you is teaching the Google Assistant your voice

and that helps in terms of recognition it also helps with things in the future

like personal results so I would I would recommend that you do this you

just hit this view more button and then you have to agree to what they're

talking about here because you are giving them a voice model and what's

going to happen is you're going to have to use the wake word four times and and

just in succession here with the device I won't have to do that because I've

already taught the Google Assistant my voice and you can see it there now the

next step is personal results now personal results is that second

component to what we just talked about it allows you to get your calendar your

contacts your reminders all kinds of things physically on this device so that

means you can make those phone calls because your contacts are being uploaded

and used between your phone and this device so again I would recommend this

this allows you to manage the calendar as well next up is your address this is

physically where you live in on the smart display itself here you do have a

navigation component so putting that in allows the Lenovo Smart Display to know

where you are and later we'll talk about where you're going in terms of your your

work environment now adding media services here you can see I have a

number of check marks on the screen right now that's because I've already

connected other devices clearly I have a few of my home now you can see the plus

down there on Deezer and when I tap on that it allows me to link my account no

I don't actually have a Deezer account but if I just hit yes link account I

would have to put in my credentials and that's really the same for these other

music services now and what I'll tell you is this goes back a little bit and

you're gonna hear this time and time again throughout the video whatever

you've put in as your Google Account at the start of the setup process and

that's a that's a critical discussion here you put that account in and what it

means is you're connected to certain Google services so YouTube music you you

can usually sign in to a different account here but as we go forward with

the calendar and the other integration that's really what you've

tied together as that Google account is tied so you know the the next button

here the default music service or the next screen rather the default music

service I'm choosing Google Play Music you could choose Spotify you could use

YouTube music or whatever other services I've seen Pandora in other countries

this is really going to be dependent on what country you're in so choose which

one you want whenever you just say hey play music that's the one that will

start so if you have playlists in something I would say use that now video

calling I already have again linked my google duo account I'll show you a

little later in the process how to link your google duo account if you don't do

it here so you could say not now and you could just skip this and I'll show you

later in the video how to make sure your Google duo account is all loaded and

connected but this is basically linking the duo account to this device that I

already have set up so in general what you're going to have to have is a Google

dual account and again I'd say use that one that you used the the Google account

to sign up on this application or to log into this application the Google home

application so I'm just going to hit use duo for now and again I'll show you how

to do that a little bit later now ambient mode is basically what turns

the Lenovo Smart Display into a digital photo frame and you're able to connect

to a number of different services but not right on this screen so if you'd

like to use Facebook you can look at this a little bit later but again Google

photos is there and it's attached to whatever Google account you use you will

be able to pull the Google photos from there so I can hit next after I've

tapped on that and then whatever albums I have show up here now you can see I'm

not using albums in my Google Photos account on this Google account so

instead I could use the art gallery or a full screen clock and that's what I'm

going to use just for the purposes of the demo here today

and I'm going to pick a relatively dark clock and that allows me to just show

you better screens actually as we go through the demo here now ultimately I'm

almost done the setup process and truthfully my smart display is almost

done updating so we're almost ready to go forward with getting this device set

up so I'm going to hit next and this is where it's just telling me hey I'm not

finished that update give me some extra time here thousands of recipes control

smart home devices and more you can also ask your Assistant to complete multiple

actions with a single command this is called a routine just say hey Google

good morning and your Assistant will show you your calendar the weather your

commute and whatever else you need to start your day want to share the moment

you can video call friends and family hands-free with Google duo also built-in

on new Android phones and available for free on iPhones you can connect

compatible smart home devices like the lights and thermostat through the Google

home app on your phone there you can set up news and media customize your teens

and change the ambient mode which is what you'll see when you're not using

your smart display to adjust volume or brightness swipe up from the bottom of

the screen and anytime you want to exit just swipe

from the left edge give it a try now and see what your smart display can do for

you all right now as soon as that update was applied and I was sitting at this

screen there was that little video that you saw it was pretty good little video

for explaining some of the basic functions of the device so I wanted to

let that run for a little bit now now that I'm all done

what I'll tell you about this screen kitchen display is ready now it's seeing

its kitchen display because that's where I put it in and it's a display so that's

the initial name I'll show you how to adjust that later

let's hit continue so there you go you're basically ready now to use this

device so what we're gonna do is we're gonna go through the device settings

first so that's one of the critical pieces for you and then we're gonna go

through the application settings and finally we'll talk about some of the

application specifics and how to get in deeper we'll talk about connecting other

smart home equipment and really then using routines and some of those more

detailed functions so let's start with device settings now in order to find the

device settings there's a couple of different ways to go but the best way is

simply here in the home screen scrolling down until I get to kitchen and you can

see I have a kitchen speaker in a kitchen display now I've brought my

kitchen speaker down here right now but here's my kitchen display now I've gone

in there I tapped there and what I'll say is there was also a play music

button there you could hit that and it would start kind of randomly it would

choose from your default service but choose a random song based on your

preferences so right now it's not playing anything but I could start that

in a second and I'll show you that a little bit when we get to the music

component of the demo so now up in the top right there's this gear icon and I

want to hit that and go in there now you can see I have a linked account the name

of the device the home the room the group and Wi-Fi and then digital

well-being we're going to go through all of those and there's more settings down

hello now the length account you can go ahead and you can go into that you can

just see the accounts that are linked but ultimately that's all that's there

we can link other accounts in the basically in the settings for the whole

Google home account here or home application rather now changing the name

this is where you can come in and you can call it something else I'll leave it

as kitchen display for now but you could make that adjustment and it applies to

the device relatively quickly the home this is again now I'll talk a little bit

about why you might want multiple homes let's say you have a child and you only

want them to be able to access certain things and you only want them to be able

to control certain devices you could segregate the different devices in your

home by simply putting them in different homes here so you could create a second

one and basically call it the kids home or your kids name and then they won't

have access to controlling say the lights or the thermostat or things like

that you don't necessarily want them to have access to but you could give them

control of their own room lighting so in terms of the room hitting that you can

go in and you could choose a new room that this device is in and why might

that be important well when you say to the Lenovo Smart Display turn off the

lights it will turn off the lights in the room that it's in so it contextually

knows you know from that interface in the home menu there it knows what

devices are in each room so that's it's a contextual command thing so when you

change the room that it's physically in here then it will change what it affects

now you can always if you'd like say shut off the lights in Ex room or Y room

and then it will shut off those as well but just know that when you do that

basis there that basic command of turn off the lights are turned on the lights

it will do it in the room it's in now in terms of groups these are multi room

audio groups so what that means for you is basically this device can be added to

multi-room audio groups and one of the recent feature upgrades that

they put into the Lenovo Smart Display so you can just add it to whatever group

you want you could create a new group which you can see down at the bottom and

then you can if you like you can add it to multiple of these groups so you can

see I just clicked on three of them and I could add them to it so for now I will

add it to one of the group's that I have in my home and later again when we go

through music I'll go through creating a group and doing all of that work and

then putting this in that group and showing you how to use it as part of the

music demo moving down in the device settings you can see the Wi-Fi and you

know if you just needed to change what Wi-Fi this was on this is how you do it

you can hit forget this network and you're done there no digital well being

is quite the feature this is gonna take me a few minutes to walk through

actually so I'm going to hit next and what we're doing is we're setting up

filters for what is possible on this device so I'm going to hit next and the

first thing to talk about is who do you want to filter now I have voice matched

my voice on this device so therefore I could either filter it for everyone

including myself or other accounts and guests now what I'll say about other

accounts and guests over time we're going to see basically and this is the

way automation works in industry you have hierarchy of accounts and we don't

really have that right now we don't really have supervise de counts but you

will in the future and so therefore you can basically set that by account in the

future I think so now the device is here you can see I've

just selected kitchen display so that's just this device but I could select

multiple and you can see that I have other devices in my home with certain

filters on them based on where they are and what they're doing but now once I've

selected the devices I want to you can see I can turn them on and off I just

hit the next at the bottom now next up are videos and I don't think you

necessarily want to fill everything out but if this was a kids

device you could just use those YouTube kids video to filter so you can see how

I'm allowing it only to play filtered videos right now from YouTube kids so

I'm gonna turn on a little bit more here I'm going to include the restricted mode

video so you know in general that filter should work keep in mind it's not going

to work 100% and if you want you can block all videos from YouTube there now

next up is music and this filter I think actually can be used very effectively if

you have multiple music services connected so you can see that I have

certain or different accounts here the three accounts that we talked about when

we set it up I could leave one that's not my default service say Spotify

without a restricted mode on it or with with allowing basically explicit music

so if my child is on home or or whomever I want to kind of keep this explicit

music away from I can go ahead and I can uncheck that music service and it will

allow me to play that explicit music for that service and I'd have to

specifically say on Spotify to get it to play that music so you can of course

allow all music or you can go ahead and you can block all music as well now

there's a couple of additional controls here and they can be highly highly

impactful to the way that this device works so you could block all calls if

you'd like so nobody would be able to make calls on this device myself I'm

actually going to leave that because I want my child in the near future to be

able to make calls on this device I'm going to teach him how to do that

do I want to allow the assistant to basically answer any query or do I want

to restrict the query so when I do that restriction it really restricts the

device down to weather news very very basic queries so you know kind of keep

that in mind and then the family-friendly actions will really a

strict the Google Assistant action so those are third-party actions that you

can install on the device and allow to basically create some additional

functionality now if they weren't family friendly or Marquez family friendly they

would not work if you said only allow family friendly actions and I'll say

that's a developing part of the marketplace of the assistant marketplace

so how well that's going to work right now I'm not really clear on I haven't

tried all the actions that are out there there's literally thousands so now that

I've hit done my filter is is all complete and now it's downtime so do you

want to schedule some downtime when this basically this device is dead quiet it's

not doing anything and I think that's what you want now alarms and timers will

still work keep that in mind again this is a very

similar interface so this is going to start looking repetitive the kitchen

display is the one I've selected I'm just hitting next which days do I want

this to happen so do I want it on school nights that's a nice easy choice or do I

want to customize and I'm going to choose all the days because this isn't a

public location in my house I'm going to customize when that downtime begins so

you can see I'm setting at 11:00 and that downtime ends at 6:00 a.m. so

basically this device is not going to do anything it's not going to bother me

from 11:00 till 6:00 every day right now and you can set that downtime to

whatever days and times you'd like so that's digital well-being in a nutshell

here and we're all done that component of the assistant setup process moving

down the list there's a couple of things here default speaker so you could choose

any of your groups that you've created as the default speaker here and that

would mean when you asked it to play music it would play on that group or

that speaker and you can now choose chromecast V version two or three you

can choose chromecast Audio you can choose Google home hubs Google home

Google home minis or you can choose Lenovo Smart Displays and the other

smart displays that are out on the market or you can choose those groups so

if I want it to always play on the office group I just

tap that and it sets that as the default speaker now for now again we're gonna

get to those demos so I'm going to leave it on the kitchen display itself now the

default TV and this is a little more of an interesting discussion with a smart

display I think in general you want it to be the the default on that display

you might want chromecast interaction with these devices so you can choose

those you can see my basement Chrome right there or other displays you might

want to be your default TV so when you ask it to play YouTube video it will

play automatically on here now one thing to note Netflix is not going to work so

just give up on that right now and move on with life you basically have YouTube

on here right now I'm sure in the future we're going to see those different

connected services start to work here but for now the default TV I and again

this is the same with default speakers if I don't choose one it will use that

as the default TV or speaker in terms of alarms and timers and this is a good

place to start doing some of our demonstrations so you can set an

independent alarm and timer volume here and if you'd like that can be

independent of everything else now there are other alarms and timers that you can

use so let's just start a couple of those alarms

set an alarm for 1255 your alarm set for 12:55 p.m.

set a music alarm for 1254 p.m. in what music would you like me to play Foo

Fighters I'll play Foo Fighters music for 1254 p.m. so you can see I set a

couple of alarms there one of them was a music alarm and one of them was a

standard alarm so you can set music and media alarms now the other thing is

timers set a timer for three minutes 30 now cancel all timers all right consider

it canceled canceled all my alarms sure it's canceled

no I can go ahead you can see I could set multiple timers I can set multiple

alarms and the multiple timers will show up on screen for you so that's really

nice you can name your timers to be able to separate them as well so you can call

it an egg timer and then I don't know a steak time or whatever if you're having

steak and eggs okay so now you can set those timers differently the other thing

with alarms is you can set them as recurring so you know let's go ahead and

do that here so set a recurring alarm okay when for 7:00

a.m. a repeating alarm for 7:00 a.m. and when do you want it to repeat every

weekday all right your alarm set on weekdays at 7:00 a.m. so there you go I

said a recurring alarm I could set a recurring music alarm if I'd like so you

can see you can combine all of those different services together in different

ways and basically piece it together as an alarm or a timer as you see fit now

moving down still in the voice in the device settings here I can enable night

mode so enable night mode is basically where you can basically minimize the

volume to a certain level or leave it as a max so you know if I only want it at

that level here at about 20% I can make that happen from a certain time again so

you could align this with the digital well-being setting or you could keep it

independent and let's say you have a child who goes to bed a little earlier

I'm going from 9:00 till 6:00 and when it's enabled I can either leave on do

not disturb mode or not so you can block sounds from reminders and broadcast

messages which we'll go through in a bit here so night mode in general I think is

a good feature and paired with that digital well being I think it's a really

good combination now if I'd like I can turn on do not disturb mode just

entirely for the device where none of the broadcast messages or spoken

notifications or any of those things will show up on the device I'm not going

to turn that on now but it's just an on-off switch let's continue down now

here's ambient mode again and you'll notice when we go into here before we

had Google photos the art gallery and the fullscreen clock now there is an

experimental mode here and you can see Facebook and Flickr so when I tap on

Facebook I can actually go in and get my Facebook content and it's the same with

Flickr here you would have to sign in if this was your first time but you can

also just choose the online photos and now that is what will

show up on the device so now that I've done that it will sit there and it will

roll through those and I can also choose to show the weather the time and

personal photo data which I usually turn off now how often do I want the

slideshow to adjust do I want it every five seconds or every minute you can

make that adjustment as well now again I'm going to take this back to the full

screen clock just so I don't keep you guys looking at pictures for this whole

demo here so now going back again accessibility and this is a big

component and useful for a lot of people so now the biggest thing is the start

and the end sound now you've you've seen the device respond and it's hard for me

to tell if I'm not looking at the device whether or not it's heard me so when I

turn on the start and end sound thank you I'd be happy to you got it I don't

know what it was saying you got it too but there you go

you could hear a start and an end sound there that basically told me that the

device had heard me so I don't need to think about that anymore I really like

those start and end sounds so now after those start and end sounds you have

audio descriptions and the ability to have what what is on the screen read to

you by the screen reader option now I actually have a video that goes through

all of these different accessibility often so I'm going to play you a

component from that right now

you

now paired Bluetooth devices this demo2 again stop and do here so enabling

pairing mode you can do that right here and now it says connected kitchen

display using bluetooth now I happen to think that it's a little more natural to

just ask the device to enable bluetooth so that's actually an option for you you

can just tell the device to do that now once you go into your device settings in

your bluetooth you will see this device show up now that I've enabled the

pairing mode it will show up down here in other devices or you know your phone

might be a little bit different here but ultimately it just takes some time to

get that Bluetooth enabled so you can see kitchen display I tap on kitchen

display for this initial pairing effort after this it should just pair time and

time again so now because I've paired my Bluetooth device you can see my iPhone

is listed there and I'm in Bluetooth connection mode so it's ready to receive

audio from any application I'd like so I could go ahead and I could use Apple

music if I'd like to connect to so I'm just going to use google play music

right now it doesn't really matter which service you use but you can see I could

just start music

now you can see the ability to control volume I now have two places to

basically do that I can also start to discuss or tell the device to change

songs but when I start to change artists or I start to change what I'm playing it

just doesn't work anymore and you switch services to playing off of this device

itself so if you want to control by bluetooth you use your phone basically

the entire time the only thing you can do is move the volume up and go to the

next or previous song one last thing I forgot to talk about actually in pairing

Bluetooth devices if you want to stop that entirely that Bluetooth capability

you know you've paired a device that you no longer have you can just tap the X

there and that gets rid of it now the time format you can obviously move to a

24 hour clock and the preview program is something that is a little you know it's

more important for the Google home and the Google home many devices but you can

still allow email notifications and you can still hit join program on this

device so now this device is is in the preview program here and even though

it's still saying off in the device settings the preview program just gives

you those early access to feature so you're gonna get a little bit of a beta

and that might mean that you might get some features that don't work quite

right now this is a fairly important feature here lowering the volume when

listening that will allow you to basically you know when it's playing

music and you use that wake word it basically quiets down the music so that

you can give it a command and they can actually hear that I would say leave

that on do you want to let others control your cast media and there's that

help improve Google Assistant smart display so that's the sending of

statistics that I said no thanks to in the early setup process now you can

remove the device from home from here there's a number of different ways to do

that but this is a quick way of doing that as well so if you ever say sell a

device like this remove it from your home and factory reset

which you know you're going to need to look up how to do that but essentially

it's holding the two volume buttons for a little bit of time and then it will

factory reset remove it from your home and it's gone so down below all of that

though system firmware cast firmware Google Assistant smart display version

these tell you the features that you have so you know this will help you in

the future if you ever need to know why you don't have a feature come and look

here and then look up what version you need on the web and of course here on

the channel I'm gonna tell you how to get that updated over time now that's

not to say that the device doesn't update on its own it's just sometimes

you might find yourself caught in a certain version or system firmware

version so now we're essentially done with the device settings and that really

means we're able to go through some of those other settings that will hold you

up from certain features on the on the display now up at the top of the home

page here you can see this Settings button right here and if we go into that

there's a few things I want to show you here but we're ultimately going to go

down all the way to the bottom and go to more settings now inside more settings

this is where you have a number of things that will affect how your device

functions so if this is your first time getting a smart display or even a Google

home device set up in your home you want to come here and get this set up so

number one the nickname what will your Assistant call you you can actually go

into that and you could modify what the device is actually calling you now your

places this is where you have your home and work addresses in the in the smart

display in all of your Google home devices and this is when you ask it how

long will it take for me to get to work those two addresses will be impactful to

that and and they will route you through Google Maps how to get there so you can

add in your address and if you want you can remove addresses later getting

around how do you get around in terms of you know do

you drive to work or do you take take public transportation so the bus routes

do you walk or bike and then otherwise what do you do to get around you can

make those adjustments now your people this I'm going to show you a demo from a

different video in a second here how you can get things to be remembered it's

really the same on this device as it is on the Google home hub so that's the

demo I'm going to use but essentially you can make your device remember

different facts for you and remind you about those facts and you know things

like birthdays are really good I think to kind of put in there hey this contact

and this uses your contacts to basically say okay this person they have a

birthday on this day and that means that on that day I'm going to get a

notification and a reminder and things like that but also what you can do is

you can tell the device I want you to remember who mommy is now mommy is this

contact in my contacts list and therefore now my child can make that

phone call using that word instead of calling in my case Elizabeth no there's

other things to do to set up that functionality and it's something that

not everyone is going to want so I'm not going to include how you get your kids

set up to do that but that's part of it right there basically setting that up by

it by account and and you'll notice that's my Google account at the top of

this so you would have to login to whomever you want to manage that with

that's their account and therefore they're people that you're getting the

device to remember by remember that Elizabeth birthday is August 3rd do you

mean the contact named Elizabeth yes

now that birthday was August 3rd is that right

yes okay I'll remember that Elizabeth's birthday is August 3rd now down below

payments reservations and purchases now payments only work in certain countries

you're only going to have this feature if you're in certain countries basically

the u.s. is the only one right now that can make purchases direct from like the

Google store for shipping address but there are other actions in that Google

Assistant so you can go in there into the payment section of the application

put in a payment method put in a delivery address for where you want the

products to go that you buy and then you can actually buy products through this

through this digital display here so now up at the top there's three settings so

allow payments with your Assistant do you want to allow that happen do you

want to confirm your identity before paying and then use a fingerprint to

confirm identity so that's on a phone with a fingerprint reader you can

actually use your fingerprint to confirm that you actually did want that purchase

to make so you can turn these on and it's relatively secure here and then

you're capable of making payments in different skills now I'm just gonna skip

weather here for a second but the reservations capability you know this is

going to become more and more impactful as we talk about Google duplex and the

capabilities of making reservations with your Google Assistant so right now it's

basically just connected to your account that's all it is

now purchases here this is all of the different purchases on this Google

account so again when you connected that initial Google account you connected to

all of those things so if you have other purchases that you've made they're

showing up there and then if you have purchases that you've made through the

Google Assistant they're showing up there as well so you can review those

now the weather I said I'd get to it it's basically Fahrenheit or Celsius

that's it so what what version of the weather do you want and it's important

to note for all of the before I go over to the assistants side

for the personal information that affects all of your Google Assistant

enabled devices now moving over to assistant the languages discussion for a

smart display is more complicated so you can see where it's saying I have English

United States and I have French in Canada here I could speak French to the

device but I could not get the writing out in French now I think right now

there is only English United States and the reason I say that is even if I

choose English Canada you will notice that it says English Canada won't work

on some of your devices so that's specifically referring to the smart

displays they're only capable of basically English United States writing

on them right now the assistant voice is another piece here you can actually

change the different voices here and you're choosing based on color these

days they just basically as soon as you hit them it starts to play so you can go

ahead and you can choose your voice now initially if you got a choice in the

setup process I didn't today but if you got a choice it would have been just

voice 1 or voice - there's 8 choices here now today and we're going to see

future voices with celebrities and things like that so you know ultimately

come here make your assistant choice continued conversation for a smart

display I'm not even going to go into that menu here and the reason for that

is basically continued conversation right now doesn't work on any smart

display you could get the Google Home Hub this the JBL link view doesn't

matter the Lenovo Smart Display cannot do the full continued conversation

feature basically so what it does do is contextually give you the follow-up

capability so it there are two components to continued conversation i

have to explain that to make sure you guys understand the first component is

contextually knowing what you've asked so if I asked about Scarlett Johansson

who I always ask about on these videos cuz

hopefully one day you will call me Scarlett but anyways contextually the

device will know that I've asked about her and then I can ask a follow-up

question and say what's her age and these devices and I'll show you in a

demo here they will actually show you on screen some buttons to follow up with

different topics about what you've asked and so you can just kind of use those

buttons to continue or you can remake up the device and have it basically answer

that next question so I can first say how will who is Scarlett Johansson and

then the follow-up question can be how old is she not how old is Scarlett

Johansson and again those buttons on the bottom are there for me as well now the

second part of continued conversation is leaving the microphone open and I know

this is one of the most requested functions or features out there for

these smart displays but it is still to this day not available that's what they

do not do on the smart displays and I've spoken about it a number of times with

different people I believe it's intentional and you know

if you guys want you can continue to send feedback to Google and I do believe

they will move that mark on the smart display now voice match if you hadn't

done voice matching you wanted to do it there it is home control we're gonna go

through in more detail later but the reason this screen we can go into right

now you know basically this is an older interface for all your other devices the

the home control section now is more located on the home screen so we'll talk

about that later when we're starting to connect other devices but what you can

do here is you can see the breakdown per connected service so you can see

Phillips you here and I have a number of services are a number of scenes rather

and a number of Lights and they're all in here and there's smart things and all

my different sensors and things that have connected so you know the other

component is the rooms component here and you know there's this big assign

room capability right here most of these are acts

scenes from Philips hue or routines from a service called you know me so they

aren't actually devices but you could if you wanted set devices kind of in two

rooms on mass if you hadn't done that or they were sitting in the other room with

basically nothing nothing set up on them so that piece of home control I feel is

going to change so I'm not going to spend a lot of time on it right now

routines we're going to get to at the end but here's the way to access those

routines and then email updates again this is another setting basically for

you to get all of the Google Assistant email sent to you so now let's move over

to services voice and video calls and this is where the rubber starts to hit

the road here in terms of capabilities on the device now mobile calling if you

didn't already get this at the start of the process and I'm I'm betting you did

if you don't already have your number in here you can actually go into your

number and you can add or change that phone number and then you will get a

text message on the device have to put in the code that it basically gave you

and and you've put in your your calling number basically what will show up when

you make calls from all your Google Assistant enabled devices so it will use

that phone number so people know that you're calling even though you're

calling from a Lenovo Smart Display now moving on to video and voice

applications and this is where you can link up google duo so you can see that

little link button there and what I'm going to do is put in my phone number

here and then once I've done that it basically links to that google duo

account so you already have to have one of those it's a free application

download on your iPhone or it's already integrated on Android devices so I'm

just going to type in my number here and then we'll get it connected because my

number is already linked to Google duo that basically linked my account that's

it now if I wanted I could block numbers and I could unlink my duo account so now

just because we've gone ahead and we've put that google duo account

what I want to show you is how to get it linked right in with this device so if I

go back to the assistant settings and what you will see down below and I

didn't show this before are the assistant devices now you see my kitchen

display and when I go into that here's a number of additional device settings so

you know this basically will allow you to go modify the name again modify the

address so you could set a different address for this display versus your

other displays you have personal results and you have home screen and

notifications all those things you can turn on and off here and you could turn

on a restricted mode all the time or a TV content filter now down here duo

video calls do I want to link that why yes I do

so go ahead hit use duo and now the duo video call capability is available back

into the services tab there's the music the news the photos and videos and we've

already seen some of these connected services but the music clearly that's a

quick ability to add different music services I'm going to show you a little

later when we get closer to the music demo here how that actually can

interface with Apple music at one point there's a specific way to do it here the

new services so whenever you ask for news these are your different news

sources and you can go ahead and add new sources you can add it by country and

then you're able to just add them and later once you've done that you can

change the order here just inside the application so you can actually drag

things around now an interesting thing or interesting component for your smart

display is right here you'll see video available on smart displays on certain

news sources so you know for seeing it there if I request news and we get to

that news on the Lenovo Smart Display I will get an actual video to start

playing continuing down now photos in videos and what I'll say is I've already

linked my Netflix and YouTube kids accounts but ultimately what you

see here is the ability to just link and then put in the credentials to that

account once you've done that you can use those services now again Netflix

does not work on this but you could request Netflix to play on a chromecast

through this device so if you have a chromecast on your TV you could still

request this to happen now Google photos is down here as well and you can turn on

that integration with that Google Account that you use to sign up here in

the application so that's the only one you have google photo access to today

tvs and speakers allows you to manage your TV and speakers you could add

another if you'd like and this is Google cast devices that are on your network so

you can go ahead and hit that ad but this is just another method of adding

new devices which again we're going to get to later in the in the video here

now your calendar your shopping list your stocks all of those are the same

functionality across you know a Google Home Hub or a Lenovo Smart Display so I

have a previous video that explains everything for these three services I'm

going to bring that up right now and you can watch it for the Google home hub

which again acts exactly the same on this device now the calendar function

and you know I mentioned this earlier it's really going to use your Google

Calendar so whatever account you've signed into is the account that shows up

here all you can do really is choose from those calendars that are integrated

with Google Calendar so let me show you that here and again I'm using an iPhone

if you're using Android this is a lot easier but if you had multiple accounts

added into here you could use multiple Gmail accounts or Google accounts to

manage your calendar there so you can go ahead you can add in extras of those but

as long as you've used that same account to set up your Google home device or

your Google Assistant enabled device with your

your your calendar there you're gonna be fine it's going to use that calendar

after that like I said it gets a lot more complicated to integrate an iOS

calendar with a gmail calendar or Google Calendar so separate video needs some

separate treatment can't show you that here today now we're back to the

shopping list again this is just another shortcut here to the shopping list and

your stocks are down here now that's again attached to your Google

account so you can see how all these services are attached to your Google

accounts or for the most part they are so you know if you add in salt stocks

here you can just tap the ad and then you're going to get those as you asked

now obviously with something like stocks you can just ask for a specific stock

from Google anyway so that's really just giving you hey my favorite stocks so

let's run through a couple of demos here we'll go through calendars will go

through stocks we'll go through the news let me show you how some of these

services are actually working add an event to my calendar what's the title of

the event go to work alright when is the event today at 9:00 p.m. all right go to

work today at 9:00 p.m. do you want to save that yes okay I saved your event

what do I have on my calendar for today there's one entry today at 9 p.m. you

have go to work show my agenda for tomorrow sorry I can't find anything on

your calendar for then what's the news here's the latest news from CBC News

hourly Edition at 8:00 p.m. today

what's the stock price for Google

alphabet Inc class a is trading at 1059 United States dollars and 68 cents per

sheriff all right so now let's go through the application in its entirety

and what I mean by that is the Google home application on an iPhone or an

Android that's really going to look very similar at this point you might start to

have additional buttons here if you have a thermostat or cameras in your home

that connect with your Google home application but ultimately these screens

are all the same and the capabilities are all the same so let's walk through

the application in its entirety and what I'll say is again this is going to be

exactly the same between the Google Home Hub and the Lenovo Smart Display so I'm

gonna bring up that video now so the first thing I want to do is show you

some of the interface in the application and then we'll move to through kind of

the voice control or different things there now the home right up at the top

you can see I have two homes set up in my home

mostly for demos here but again if you wanted to split out your home your smart

home devices you could and then move them between the homes and I'll show you

how to do that later there's also the off and the on button so I can turn off

things that are already connected now if this is the first time you've set up a

Google Home Hub well you don't have anything connected there so you know

what you can do is this is by room that you've created in your home so as we

setup rooms and we put devices in those rooms you can turn off the lights per

room the next thing is the on button which is just the reverse of the off

button obviously you're going to be able to turn on all the lights in the

different rooms you can kind of break them up in any way you like

now play is the next component now play brings up basically all your groups so

you create multi-room audio groups or multi speaker groups and then it brings

all your devices up so this allows you to pick each one

and since I chose this one as bedroom display that's actually what's here for

me to choose so if I just hit play and now I tap on bedroom speaker it's now

going to start music from my default music server now you saw I was able to

actually adjust the volume rate there so this is the interface that comes right

up when I've started it here I can also stop casting open the app you can see I

can move back and forth in the song and I can pause and there's also an

equalizer here so if I want to hear a little more of the bass sound I can go

ahead and do that and a little less treble and I'll tell you the Google Home

Hub is a little higher on that mid-range component of the speaker so that's kind

of generally how I play these ones as well so a little trick for you there now

there's all the settings which I'm going to go into later that's the the gear

icon there we're gonna go into that a little bit later but for now I'm going

to pause the music and we're gonna move on now the next button to move down to

here is our broadcast button and this allows us to basically send messages

from any other device in the home to all of the devices in the home so go ahead

hit the broadcast and then whatever comes up on that when it comes up on the

screen to speak that's what you're going to broadcast so let's go ahead and do

that does anyone need eggs

does anyone need eggs now in the very near future you're going to be able to

respond to that and I can actually do that broadcast from out of the home if I

just have the Google Assistant application on my phone so that's really

important stuff actually going forward you're able to tell your Google

Assistant and I can show you how to do that here just in the Google Assistant

application I can go ahead and say broadcast broadcast hello everyone so

there you go that's really it in terms of broadcasting today but again it's

going to change in the near future where you're going to be able to interact with

your Google home hub and by the time you see this that feature might be there

where you can just simply respond to the person and they will get a transcription

and a voice message of what you said back so that's where you can ask about

do you need some milk does anyone need anything I'm at the grocery store and

get an actual response back now the next button is ad and that's a bit of a

longer discussion here so I'm going to leave that for the second and the next

thing is settings which again is a longer discussion so let's leave that

for a minute but as we scroll down the other connected or smart home devices

are here in the basically in the interface I can tap on any room so this

is arranged by room and there are the devices in that room and then I can tap

on the gear go in and I can choose devices delete the room go into each

device and its settings if I'd like so there you can see I can choose the

devices again and I could go and I could add something and that will put that

device in that room so you know really quick navigation or capability of

changing things in and out of rooms and you can also see the on and off buttons

here on the interface I also have those kinds

of things here on the Google home hub so again let me take you through that smart

home menu on any screen you swipe down from the top and you can see three

sections lights media and broadcast now in two lights you can see by room and

then you can go into each room you can manage them all together or you can go

into the new lights menu here this is brand new as this video comes out

actually and you can manage each light independently you can also go into each

light by tapping on it change the color if it's a color bulb so you can see as I

tap on this the light actually in the room changes color so you know there's a

lot of capability here of moving back and forth between your lights and other

home control elements you're going to see the harmony hub a little later so

keep that in mind but back into these rooms here you can go into all the

lights in your home if you'd like you can turn them on and off of course and

do all the same things you did before now there is a view rooms button up at

the top right once you swipe down and that looks just like your application

interface so you can scroll right down through your rooms tap on the left to

switch between rooms and then you can go into even your Google Home Hub or other

Google home media device and use that there are that part of it now the media

button you can go through all the different devices that you have in your

home you can go in and start music straight from there if you'd like

okay music from Google Play music playing on bedroom display

the last button in the menu here is the broadcast function which allows you to

broadcast to all your devices that's the functionality rate now we talked about

it a little earlier in the video though but it does allow you to send a message

to all the devices in your home today what's the message

hello how's it going

okay broadcasting now now moving down the list you can see the ability to play

music on Google home minis on Google home hubs on Google home devices

anything that's Google home you can basically hit play on and it will start

music based on your default music service and kind of what you listen to

around this time that's all kind of chosen for you you can see the different

sensors that I have throughout the home and again you can change the home and

you can change the room and you can see that I've already linked Samsung

smartthings so that's something I'll show you a little bit later here how to

link some of your services and get them working now the the last kind of

component down at the very bottom are your groups and your groups our speaker

groups that again I'll show you when we go to that Add button here in a second

so let's continue through the application don't know so in general the

discover page here has your ambient mode pictures everything that's being shown

on your other cast enabled devices so if you have a chromecast in your home you

can see right here I have two and those allow me to go in and manage the ambient

settings now it's not always going to show up here not every device in your

home is going to show up here so it's kind of a discover page that's intended

to let you learn about new functions I don't use it a ton hey you can come here

anyways and learn about new functions and capabilities anyways so let's skip

over to browse where we have all of our different connected music and video

applications so you're able to actually go into different applications this is

the YouTube application so it's pulling videos based on well I don't actually

know cuz it's not like I watch anything about George W Bush ever but you know

you also have Netflix which I've already connected and I'll show you how to do

that later Google playing music which we saw at the

start of the setup process and here's all the different services that I've

connected so you can see all those and finally there's more services at the

bottom here that you can go ahead and add as well no it's

obviously very very important to go through the music component of this

there are some great speakers on the Lenovo Smart Display so let's go through

music in its entirety here and really get you going with that now from from a

very very basic standpoint we are capable of starting music and on any of

our connected services so you know in the past you saw I had three different

connected services so let's start with that demo play Foo Fighters playing Foo

Fighters on google play music volume down volume two two

so you can see I can adjust volume there but I can also modify the song next song

and of course I can pause or I can stop if I'd like so stop okay so now there is

the ability to play this device in a group and I told you I was going to do

this earlier in the video so we're going to scroll all the way down to the

kitchen display and then I'm going to tap on it and then of course up top

right there's my gear icon and I want the tap on group so I'm going to add it

to a group now and I'm going to add it to my office group and then hit save now

that means now this device is in the office group now that I've placed it in

the office group you can see my office Group down here at the bottom of the

home screen and I can simply tap into there and it'll sit here and it'll

refresh a while because my networks a little slow but the Settings icon allows

me to go in and manage this group so I could choose the different devices and

you can see the two devices that I have in this it's the kitchen display and the

kitchen speaker which is my Google home many that's sitting here now I could go

ahead and I could choose additional devices if I'd like I can add my

basement home which is this speaker here it's actually the original Google home

in my home so I could also delete this group and now that I've done that I can

go ahead and I can request to play on office group so let's go ahead and do

that play Foo Fighters on office group playing on office group

pause

so you can see I pause the music here it was playing on all of them I was able to

modify which one was playing what so you're capable of managing volume

independently or if you go into the office group you can actually manage

that from this interface here you can also set all of them to you know a

certain volume if you'd like now paired Bluetooth devices this is a good demo to

again stop and do hear so enabling pairing mode you can do that right here

and now it says connected kitchen display using bluetooth now I happen to

think that it's a little more natural to just ask the device to enable bluetooth

so that's actually an option for you you can just tell the device to do that now

once you go into your device settings in your Bluetooth you will see this device

show up now that I've enabled the pairing mode it will show up down here

in other devices or you know your phone might be a little bit different here but

ultimately it just takes some time to get that Bluetooth enabled so you can

see kitchen display I tap on kitchen display for this initial pairing effort

after this it should just pair time and time again so now because I've paired my

Bluetooth device you can see my iPhone is listed there and I'm in Bluetooth

connection mode so it's ready to receive audio from any application I'd like so I

could go ahead and I could use Apple music if I'd like to connect to so I'm

just going to use google play music right now it doesn't really matter which

service you use but you can see I could just start music
