A:AnswerHey there, Czarian. Thanks for your interest! If you mean to control your compatible thermostat remotely with the Nest display, both devices should be connected to the same Wi-Fi network so you can perform voice commands. If the question is intended for the Nest thermostat, you can manage and control the device along with its settings using the app even when you’re not at home as long as your thermostat and app (phone or tablet) are both online. If you mean something else, tell us more about your inquiry by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
A:AnswerHey there, Tootie12. Yes, you can connect the Nest Hub (2nd Gen) to multiple Nest speakers simultaneously through a feature called speaker groups. With Google Home, you can create a speaker group comprising up to 10 compatible Nest speakers, enabling synchronized audio playback across all the connected devices within the network. This feature allows you to enjoy music, podcasts, or any other audio content seamlessly throughout your space. Given the size of your office (approximately 1200 square feet), having a network of 10 wireless Nest speakers connected to the Nest Hub should provide excellent coverage and audio distribution. If you need assistance and other concerns, please reach out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center, here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

A:AnswerBoth models have different options the base nest hub can do just voice calls while the nest hub max can do video calls as well as normal voice calls.
A:Answerabsolutely!! I would suggest you connect/link your YouTube account in the Google Home settings. Then just "Hey GOOGLE, play the chicken dance video from YouTube on the kids bedroom display".
A:Answeryes... in some cases, much better that Alexa... also better with map related questions. When Alexa fails, Google always seems to help. I use both of them.
