How to Create Custom Google Routines

If the ready-made Routines aren’t what you want, create custom Routines. Here’s how:

Open the Google Assistant app and select your profile icon.

Scroll down to settings and select Routines.

Select New.

Select Add Starter. This will determine how your Routine begins.

Choose how you want to prompt your Routine. Select Voice Command, Time, or Sunrise/Sunset. We’ll use Voice Command in this example.

Sunrise/sunset Routines automatically detect your location, allowing you to create morning and evening Routines. For example, have your living room lights come on automatically at sundown, or have your sprinklers turn on at dawn.

Since we chose Voice Command, we’ll type a phrase for our Routine, such as “Let’s Get Ready.” Tap Done.

If you chose Time for your starter, you’d select a time for your Routine to begin. If you chose Sunrise/Sunset, you’d opt for Sunrise or Sunset.

Tap Add action to choose what this Routine will do.

Select a category, then select a specific action or actions. Depending on the action, there may be additional steps to complete, for example, if you’re setting up music with your Routine. Tap Done when finished.

Tap Save to save your new Routine.
