**Update February 16, 2018**:
|

Home Assistant 0.64 will be the last release to support Python 3.4. Starting with release 0.65, Home Assistant will require a minimum version of Python 3.5.3.

Starting with our next release, 0.55, we will deprecate Python 3.4 support. The current plan is to remove support for Python 3.4 at the beginning of 2018.
|

|

Python 3.5 was released on September 13th, 2015. It has since then become the default Python installation on the stable releases of Debian, Ubuntu, Raspbian and Hassbian. Our other own operating system, Hass.io, is more advanced and is already running the greatly improved Python 3.6.

The jump to Python 3.5 as a minimum version is driven by the Home Assistant core, which is based on asyncio. Starting with Python 3.5, asyncio got improved support in the language with dedicated keywords `async` and `await`. As this is the proper way of doing async in Python, we're seeing a move by async libraries to either only support the new syntax from the beginning or dropping support for the Python 3.4 approach. Not moving along means an increased maintenance burden as we cannot use the latest releases of our libraries. Next to that it will prevent our users from being able to leverage the bug fixes and performance improvements that come with Python 3.5.

If you're running Hass.io, you don't have to do anything. Your system will always stay up to date.

#### Hassbian
|

If you're running Hassbian it's recommended that you make a backup of your configuration files and restore them on a fresh install. Upgrading an existing installation isn't recommended.

#### {% linkable_title What countries are supported at launch? %}

Only US is currently supported. The reason for this limitation is that we need to do extra steps and certifications for each country's Alexa skill. This is in progress but the timeline depends on Amazon.

As of February 2018, we are live in all countries that have Alexa except for Japan (which is under certification).

We're happy to announce that the Home Assistant skill is now available in Canada, UK, Germany, India and Australia! Check it out in the [Amazon Alexa Skill store][alexa skill].
|
||||
|
||||
In the meanwhile, we have also been working on the Google Assistant integration. We passed the first verification and are now working with Google to do the final verification. Stay tuned!
|
||||
|
||||
In less than 2 weeks the open beta is about to expire. We're still working on setting up the company and payment system so we can start accepting payments. Until we do, Home Assistant Cloud will remain free.
