    I have several Google home products throughout the house, but this is the only speaker that is inconsistent with the speaker groups. I have reset it multiple times with no luck. It will work fine on it's own though. Would be 5* if it stayed connected to the rest of the speakers.

    It's a nice little speaker that has great sound for its size. It's not loud enough for a party, but it's good for playing music while working.

    I’m unsure about this one because sometimes I can’t hear the doorbell chime when guests are at the door. We need to understand why sometimes it doesn’t alert us like normal.

    • Brand response from Nest Support
      Posted .

      Hi there, AmyE. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Nest Mini. We’re sorry to learn of your experience with the Visitor Announcement feature.

      You’ll only get visitor announcements on your speakers and displays if they are set up in the same home as your doorbell in the Home app. If Do Not Disturb is turned on for your Google speaker or display, you won’t get visitor announcements on that device. If you have multiple homes in the Home app, you’ll only receive a visitor announcement from the speaker or display in the home a visitor rings the bell for. So if someone rings the doorbell in your vacation home, you won’t receive a visitor announcement on the speaker in your primary residence.

      In addition, a range issue or wireless interference can affect the performance of your speaker. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. If you're experiencing a spotty connection or weak signal, we recommend checking your Wi-Fi network to see if your bandwidth is congested. This may happen if you have too many devices connected on the same bandwidth or if your network package is not enough to handle the data traffic on the network. Removing other connected devices to your Wi-Fi may relieve network congestion. If your device is mounted too far from your Wi-Fi router, you may need to extend your Wi-Fi network’s range using an extender, boosters or additional Wi-Fi access points.

      We’re always here to help. If further assistance is required, please visit us anytime at: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
