      Posted .

      Hi dills84, we're grateful to have your feedback on Nest Hub (2nd gen), and are sorry that it doesn’t hear your voice commands in some situations. We certainly understand how frustrating it can be if something isn’t working the way it should.

      Adjusting how sensitive Google Assistant responds to the hotword “Hey Google” may help you with this situation:
      - Open the Google Home app.
      - At the bottom, tap Home.
      - Select your Nest display or the device you want to adjust.
      - At the top right, tap Device settings > “Hey Google” sensitivity.
      - If you don’t find “Hey Google sensitivity,” first tap Audio.
      - Choose how sensitive you want Google Assistant to be when it responds to you.
      - To change this setting on another device, tap Adjust more devices.

      You can also retrain your Nest Hub to better recognize your voice. See the steps below on how to do this:
      - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app
      - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
      - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.

      We’d be more than happy to guide you with further troubleshooting and investigation, simply let us know if additional assistance is required using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    It’s okay, it works but my problem is that it always disconnects and you have to reset it completely if the internet goes off or if you change the password to the Wi-Fi. It’s a hassle but great for alarms that’s mostly what I use it for.

    Yes, it's better than the 1st generation. The sound quality is noticeably better, but it's not night and day. Everything else works like it should. Highly recommended!
