Isn'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.

I 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.

I'm not seeing the 1-year gap? I'm pretty sure where it says "January 2018" is a typo, was actually 2019.

Hm, you're right, that does seem to be a typo. I'll downgrade to "six month gap".

OnHub still gets updates because it runs the Google Wifi firmware. If we're lucky all three products will continue to be updated.

Extrapolating 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.
