On Smart Displays with Google Assistant, in the Google Assistant app and in the Google Home app (GHA), users can control devices in their home with a graphical interface. This may be a slider to control the temperature of a thermostat, or a button to turn a light on and off. These touch controls serve as a complement to voice commands. These controls are automatically enabled; no development work is required. ## Smart Displays with Google Assistant On Smart Displays with Assistant, touch controls are based on the traits supported by the device. ### Fullscreen View ![This image shows touch controls for controlling the temperature of a thermostat from the fullscreen view on Smart Displays with Google Assistant](https://developers.home.google.com/static/cloud-to-cloud/features/images/touch-controls-smartdisplayfull.png) Figure 1: Touch controls for controlling the temperature of a thermostat from the fullscreen view of a Smart display. ### Tiled View ![This image shows touch controls for controlling the temperature of a thermostat from the tiled view on Smart Displays with Google Assistant](https://developers.home.google.com/static/cloud-to-cloud/features/images/touch-controls-smartdisplaytile.png) Figure 2: Touch controls for controlling the temperature of a thermostat from the tiled view of a Smart display with Assistant. ### Supported Traits - [Brightness](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/brightness.md.txt) - [CameraStream](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/camerastream.md.txt) - [Channel](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/channel.md.txt) - [ColorSetting](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/colorsetting.md.txt) - [Dock](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/dock.md.txt) - [FanSpeed](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/fanspeed.md.txt) - [LockUnlock](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/lockunlock.md.txt) - [Modes](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/modes.md.txt) - [NetworkControl](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/networkcontrol.md.txt) - [OnOff](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/onoff.md.txt) - [OpenClose](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/openclose.md.txt) - [RunCycle](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/runcycle.md.txt) - [StartStop](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/startstop.md.txt) - [TemperatureSetting](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/temperaturesetting.md.txt) - [Toggles](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/toggles.md.txt) - [TransportControl](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/transportcontrol.md.txt) - [Volume](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/traits/volume.md.txt)
### Supported Device Types All device types (but [Scene](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/guides/scene.md.txt)) have icons displayed alongside touch controls associated to the [supported traits](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/features/touch-controls.md.txt#supported_traits) implemented by that device. ![This image shows the icon for a thermostat device on Smart Displays with Google Assistant.](https://developers.home.google.com/static/cloud-to-cloud/features/images/touch-controls-smartdisplayicon.png) Figure 3: Icon for a thermostat device on a Smart display with Assistant. If a device doesn't implement any of the [supported traits](https://developers.home.google.com/cloud-to-cloud/features/touch-controls.md.txt#supported_traits) a placeholder is displayed to the user suggesting the use of voice control. ![This image shows the placeholder displayed for a device with unsupported traits.](https://developers.home.google.com/static/cloud-to-cloud/features/images/touch-controls-smartdisplayunsupported.png) Figure 4: Placeholder for device with unsupported traits on Smart Displays with Assistant. ## Google Assistant App ![This image shows touch controls for controlling the temperature of the hallway thermostat.](https://developers.home.google.com/static/cloud-to-cloud/features/images/touch-controls-assistantapp.png) Figure 5: Touch controls in the Assistant app for controlling the temperature of a thermostat ### Supported Traits -
