Pairing Mysa Gen3 with Google Home via Matter

Last updated: October 6, 2026

Product: Gen3 | Firmware: 5.1.4 or later | App: Mysa app 4.18 or later

Gen3 uses Matter for Google Home. Gen3 does not use the older Mysa account-linking / Works with Google flow. Reconnecting your Mysa account in Google Home may continue to show older devices such as Baseboard Lite, but Gen3 must be added through the Google Home Matter setup flow. A Matter-compatible Google hub is required to complete pairing.

This guide covers pairing your Mysa Gen3 thermostat to Google Home using Matter, what you can do once it is paired, Google Assistant voice commands, and Google Home–specific limitations. For an overview of Matter and links to other Gen3 Matter guides, see Gen3: Connecting to your Smart Home using Matter.

Before You Start

Your thermostat, the phone running the Mysa app, and your Google hub must all be on the same Wi-Fi network. If any are on a different or guest network, pairing may fail or the thermostat may appear unresponsive.

  • Gen3 with the required Gen3 firmware version, online in the Mysa app.

  • Mysa app (iOS or Android) 4.18 or later, signed in.

  • The Google Home app on an Android phone or iPhone.

  • A Matter-compatible Google hub — Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max, Nest Mini, Nest Wifi Pro, or another Matter-compatible Google device.

Step 1 — Make Sur Gen3 Setup Is Complete

  1. Install and complete setup for your Gen3 in the Mysa app.

  2. Open the Mysa app and make sure your Gen3 is online and connected.

  3. Confirm the Matter QR code is available for your thermostat after setup is complete.

Important: For Gen3, the Matter QR code is ready only after Mysa app setup is complete.

Step 2 — Add the Thermostat in Google Home

  1. Open the Google Home app and tap the + button.

  2. Tap Device.

  3. If prompted, select your home and tap Next.

  4. Choose the option to add a Matter device. Scan the Matter QR code for your Gen3, or enter the setup code manually if available.

  5. Follow the Google Home pairing flow.

  6. If prompted, assign the thermostat to a room and give it a name.

  7. Tap Done. Your Gen3 thermostat appears in Google Home.

Google Home Limitations

These come from the Matter standard and Google's implementation, not from a defect in your thermostat.

Gen3 Is Heat-Only

Gen3 supports Heat and Off through Matter. If Google Home displays other modes, do not use them; unsupported mode commands should not be used.

Tiles May Lag After a Change

Google Home tiles can take a few seconds to reflect changes made in the Mysa app or from another platform. Close and reopen the tile to force a refresh.

May Show Unresponsive Before Mysa App Shows Offline

After a Wi-Fi drop, Google Home may flag the thermostat as unresponsive before the Mysa app shows it offline. This is normal.

Re-Pairing After a Reset

Remove the thermostat from Google Home before re-pairing. Then pair again using the Matter setup flow for Gen3.
