No, Google Home Assistant does not currently support direct color theme customization on the Google Home app or devices like the Google Nest Hub.

While the app and smart displays use a clean and minimalistic interface, their color themes are fixed and adapt based on system settings (e.g., light or dark mode) and time of day for smart displays.

However, you can personalize the visual experience by customizing ambient modes, backgrounds, and display brightness on smart devices.

Customization Options Available

While you can’t directly change color themes, here are some alternative ways to personalize the visual experience:

1. Enable Light or Dark Mode (Mobile App)

The Google Home app adapts to your device’s system theme, switching between light and dark modes.
