    • Brand response from Nest Support
      Posted .

      Hi there, MichaelM! Thanks for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear that your Nest Mini sometimes activates on its own. Adjusting your Nest Mini's mic sensitivity and retraining it to better recognize your voice can be helpful with the issue. Check out the steps below:
      Retrain Voice Match:
      - 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 also recommend changing your Nest Mini's hotword sensitivity:
      - Open your Google Home app.
      - Select your Nest Mini.
      - At the top right, tap the Settings (Gear) icon.
      - Then tap Audio.
      - Then tap "Hey Google" sensitivity and adjust the slider to make your Nest Mini more responsive to the hotword.

      If you need further assistance, we recommend contacting our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Overall works well, although it does seem to have a delay at times and can get buggy as well and needs resetting (my 1st generation mini got buggy and was never able to be fixed after multiple calls with Google)

    I had originally received one from my grandma a couple years ago but it’s been so nice to play music on, to turn on my television and my lights too. So I decided to get one for my brother for Christmas which was a perfect gift and I would highly recommend one to anyone looking for a nice gift.

    If you are looking for an inexpensive expansion to the smart home, this is a great option but they make much better speakers and I would recommend splurging if you can. The fidelity of the larger speakers way outshine this one.

    I mainly use it as a Bluetooth speaker for the WebEx meeting when work from home. The voice of people is clear and sounds nature.

    Connection to WiFi needs improvement. When you speak to one in one room it answers you in another room - a feature that improvements could enhance

    This is easy to set up and has many uses. I especially like that it recognizes who is talking to it so it plays the correct music.
