So does this mean my Google Wifi router isn’t getting any new updates, or...?
- hwbehrens 7y agoExtrapolating from the 3-year update guarantee Google offers for the Pixel line, and the October 2016 launch date of Google WiFi... I don't think you should get your hopes up, sadly.
- wmf 7y agoOnHub still gets updates because it runs the Google Wifi firmware. If we're lucky all three products will continue to be updated.
- kemayo 7y agoIsn't it getting incredibly slow updates anyway? I mean, examining the release notes[1] suggests that there's not been an update since June, and there was a 1 year gap between the last two updates. So: Google behaving according to form, really.

- devicetray0 7y agoI bet they're just going to EOL it. It's been pointed out here by several Xooglers that Google engineers tend to focus only on launching new products in order to get promoted. This looks like it was built by a different group (Nest) within google.
- jumpingmice 7y agoI'm not seeing the 1-year gap? I'm pretty sure where it says "January 2018" is a typo, was actually 2019.
- kemayo 7y agoHm, you're right, that does seem to be a typo. I'll downgrade to "six month gap".
