That was really fantastic. I am really enjoying my Google Home devises. I have 2 and will soon add a 3rd unit to my network. I am really impressed with what they can do. My wife was against us getting one, but now she uses it more than I!
Brett - - I have 4 google home mini and one google nest 1st generation. I have been searching the internet and TH-cam to see if I can control my ceiling fan with google home. The reason is often times I crawl into bed and read awhile and then I need to either control the fan speed or turn the fan off. I am all ready nicely snuggled in bed and then I have to get up and walk across the room to do that. Could you please tell me if this can be done with my google home? Thank you in advanced.
I learned so much . AWESOME Now instead of saying "Hey google play the "The Crown on Chromecast TV" I can say "Hey Google play The Crown" since I learned to give devices smaller names. I have a google Home and mini. Just changed the settings on the Google home to default media only automatically to the TV. (I had to give my devices shorter names because my dog has learned to start barking so loud when I say hey google and then it can't hear me.) Shorting the words I now have to say solved a nightmare.
Hey Brett. Thanks again for the instructional videos. They have really helped me in getting Google Home devices, Chromecast and Home Control setup. I have an unrelated question to this particular video. I understand that Google Home can send information, like map directions to your phone. I just cannot get this to work. If I ask for directions to say the airport, it give me a verbal map overview and travel time, Google Home then states it is sending details to my phone, but nothing ever appears on my phone. What gives? Thanks.
Thanks for all the videos related to google products. I am slowly switching from Apple to Google products and your videos are very helpful. I have one question regarding speakers at home. I have unwell speakers in most of the rooms and couple of home theater systems. Currently we use Control 4 for managing them. Do you have any info to control theater speakers and in wall speakers using Google Home or Mini
Thanks for the informative video. I recently gave a Google Home mini to a friend. After setting up her name the device doesn't use it. When she asks "what's my name" it responds saying she needs to alter privacy settings. We cant find where to do this?
Hi Brett, I've just found your channel and I'm finding it really helpful with my new Google Mini thanks. have you previously done a video on the broadlink RM pro+ I have seen videos in which this can be used to controlled Rf and IR devices with the Google home Mini can you can you help Thanks
Great Post, I own the home version, my question is how do you change the sound alarm on the Google speakers? The television advert shows the Google home waking up the actor with a lion king, jungle theme type tone? No option on the settings and during 2017 in the u.k that was the main sort of high light Google were impressing customers with! I'm sick on listening to the same old tone 😡
I'm really interested in the stereo pairing feature on the Google Home Max. I kind of wish that feature was available on the other Google Home products. If I had 2 Google Home Minis in the living room for instance, and I put them into a group, would it be possible to set one up as the left channel and the other as the right channel? I only have one Google Home product of any kind, so I can't yet test this for myself.
I'm not sure but I think 'google home/assistant' has had an update and is looking slightly different but I'm having trouble with 'linking all three of my google mini's to the one home group. Could you advise how to link them all in the one account or how to 'reset' the google mini, cheers
Hey Brett, just watched your first video here and immediately subscribed because you go in depth with describing all of the features of the products and I learned alot from just this one video that I hadn't heard before on other videos when it comes to how the Google Home devices are setup and function. I do have a question though - What's the real difference(s) between the Google Home & Google Home mini???? I currently only have the original Chromecast connected to my main tv and wanted to start setting up newer devices which will eventually control my entire home automation system but didn't want to get devices that I really don't need such as possibly the Google Home & Chromecast Audio since I can already play music from my phone to my Chromecast. If I can get away with just having a Google Home mini in each room, that would be ideal & cheaper. Sorry for the drawn out message here!!!!!
+Brian Woods Thank you for the follow! The only difference between the two are sound and touch controls. All other settings and features are the same. If you most use the Chromecast for music then you can easily play the music from the Mini to the Chromecast like this: th-cam.com/video/RD9jURxgVO4/w-d-xo.html
I can't seem to get my PoS goole home mini to connect, let a lone take and advantages of advanced settings. I've looked through every online resource and video, and mine just stays in a vicious loop of doom (yes I have blue tooth enabled and yes I have tried the various wifi settings back and forth). I must have a defective unit, I'm just going back to my Amazon Acho Show, it setup in seconds in the same environment and same smart phone. Sad that Google can't make this work easy considering they control the O/S, the app, and the hardware.
Hey Brett...this is probably a great video, but when I open my Google Home App; it doesn't look anything like the one your using. Is there more than one type of "google Home App"?
My Google home suddenly changed to 3hrs ahead. Alarm time in the app is the correct time but the hub mini says the wrong time. I changed the address and it said the correct time once but now it says the wrong time again.
Hey Brett I have a suggestion for your next video. Could you do a video for Google home Forget option in Wifi ?. I tried to change that wifi connection to another in my own network and I end up reconfiguring the whole Mini. Also I'd like to know how to do same thing on Chromecast !. Happy New Year !.
Hi tech with Brett... I have a question I can't retrain my voice on my Google mini or my Google home the error message says microphone not working... can you guide me as to how to fix it pleaseeeee... thank you
+bklprl It looks like this is a know issue. What check out these forum to see how to submit feedback. support.google.com/googlehome/forum/AAAAXWcshA0bcwyGaNYutM/?hl=en
Thank you Sir. Great video; but also, I would like th thank you for being smart enough for not using the trigger word loudly. Why can't other TH-camrs be that smart? QQ: On the "Media playback" feature; does the target speaker have to have a chromcast device attached (or built in)?
Hi Brett, my sister has recently become blind and would like to use google home mini to be able to listen to youtube tv so she can listen to local tv stations What hardware would she need to do this? Thanks
Hey Bryan, I am so sorry to hear that. Any Google Home will work and I have been able to listen to TH-cam videos right on the Google Home because I am a TH-cam Red subscriber. You can also request the Google Home to listen to news radio. The full details are here: support.google.com/googlehome/answer/7073476?hl=en If you have any troubles please let me know I can be more detailed for you.
Thanks for muting "Hey". Your hard work earned you a new subscriber and a like today. Any videos on the harmony hub working with goggle or sometimes working right? Lol
Hey Brett, maybe you can answer this... when I'm in one room playing music on GH. I go to another room and say to the 2nd GH what's playing. The 2nd GH tells me what's playing on the 1st GH. My question when your playing music on 1 GH. Is there a way to go to another room/GH and give a command to continue playing music on the 2nd GH?
Can someone help with a G.E. light switch. The light works through my assistant on my phone, however I can't get it to work with my google home. I have it set up through smartthings.
+Stanley Sandle Have you tried re-linking your Smart Things account? I would start there. You could also ask the Google Home to sync lights to see if that helps.
Hey what else can I do to get my GE light switch to work with the google home. I have it connected through smartthings. It works through the phone assistant. I tried relinking the and I tried telling google to find the lights. It shows in the room I have it assigned to in the google home.
Hi Tech With Brett, great video thanks mate, but one question if you could help me with. I have set up the Google Home Mini from my phone and it has recognised my voice. Now if I want to do the same for my partner should she do it through her own phone. Is this the best way to set her up as a second account or user on the Mini? Thanks in advance.
Hey man, not sure what happened but in the device tab, Google is only showing linked devices and not displaying the way it use to. Not sure if you have noticed this.
+Matt Kolmakov I believe so since it will run the Android app but I have not tried it. Please let me know if that works! It may not because you need the Google Assistant.
You cant setup the device itself, but what we found out is that you can control it from that app if you setup on a phone/tablet. Also we found out that if you put your finger on one side of the Mini, it turns off. (you have to hold you finger down for 3 seconds)
When I say the hotword my TV's(Sony Android TV.) volume is temporarily lowered till I finish the command, both are connected to the same WiFi. Is there any way to avoid this??
I have not check the Android TV settings lately but I don't believe there is a way unless there is an option under that Device in the Google Home devices tab.
+Phil PJ Davis What phone are you using? Here are the steps to make sure it is all setup: support.google.com/googlehome/answer/7535860?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid&oco=0
Tech With Brett K I tried everything. Location is good. Says it cannot play sound? Both on the map and by mini. The cast version is different from the new update. Just don't know how to update it? Last 3 digits are 429 for new.
Hey Brett! Love the videos! We got google home for Xmas. One thing I'm having trouble with is the calander. My work phone is a android powered Blackberry and google does not give me my calander info when I ask about my day. I downloaded the google calander on my Blackberry and it also does not recognize the events in there either. I have the google home app installed on my Blackberry and set up our google home from there. How do I get google to give me my daily calander details? Thanks and Happy New Year!
+Lars Andersen You will need to have a Google Calendar to add events and more. When you add an event you can change the calendar it saves it too. More details here: support.google.com/googlehome/answer/7029002?hl=en
Ok so I have two mini's tell me why one tells me weather for town 8 miles away out of no where when it worked fine and the other one tells me correct town I live and the weather fine still. When I ask "whats the weather"
+hdtv00 Do they both have the same address? You can check by going to the Menu in the top left of the Google Home App, More Settings, under Devices select the device ad check the address.
Try setting your Google devices to your voice only...I watch these videos all day and wonder why ppl fuss about the hotword when my smart home never trips from videos, ect.
What yes you can play the crystal ball crystal ball crystal ball how do you know it all what's happening what's happening what's happening what's happening what's really really happening in the background what's up what's the weather what's up what's up what's up what's up with it whatsoever wow that was alone comment and subscribe to my channel whether you can do a video of the Samsung Galaxy S3 S4 not thank you make sure you like to thank you
I bought the family Spotify account for $14.99 a month because I thought in order for everyone in my house can use it. Is this true or can I just link one music account and my household can use it?
Taylor Csemez if you link one account, you cannot listen to different songs on different devices at the same time. Family members will have to take turns listening to what they want. The family account let's different devices play different songs at the same time.
It is able to respond to anyone that uses the wake word, but it will only respond to your with your personal information. You can also setup digital well being where it will only play certain content for you and not for others that ask it.
Can I please make a slight correction? The Apple Music option only allows you to play Apple Music content via voice commands on your iOS device, this does not allow you to play Apple Music content on an Android phone, or dedicated Google Home compatible device. However, there is a way to play Apple Music content on your Google Home device, and that's via Bluetooth. If you turn Bluetooth on and pair it with an iOS device, you will be able to play content through your Google Home and you will have limited voice action functionality, you will be able to play, pause and move through tracks. If you want to request a song on Apple Music via voice, you'll need to use Siri.
No worries Brett. In addition to that, I should also point out that if you don't have the Google Assistant app installed on your iOS device, the option that allows Google Assistant to control Apple Music content won't even show up at all. It's interesting to note that if you are an iPhone user as I am, and you select any of the settings on the main menu in Google Home, if you also have the Google Assistant app installed, when you select an option off the main menu, you'll be taken to the Google Assistant app, I think this is so you can change your Google Assistant related settings for all devices that can access Google Assistant on your account, does that make sense?
I need help I asked Google assistant to make a call to my friend to WhatsApp but my google nest mini cannot make a calls to WhatsApp assistant telling me that cannot make a calls only to Google Duo but I want it to WhatsApp I have contacts on my WhatsApp what please explain to me what I got to do to fix it and I want to add one more thing when I choose a song I asked Google Nest mini I want to play Elvis song and she's telling me only TH-cam premium users can choose a songs please help please write me back
Walmart has them on sale for 29 bucks and they'll kick you back a 25 dollar coupon so you're basically just paying 4 bucks in the end. Not a bad deal! Of course free would be better huh ;-)
ok I found a reason .. I live in uk but the phone was set to Polish language .. that's why the google home application was not compatible with this language. I changed to English and I have everything
You not saying "Hey Google" all the time is a real help watching this video - well done!
kudos for muting "hey google" very well made video. thanks
That was really fantastic. I am really enjoying my Google Home devises. I have 2 and will soon add a 3rd unit to my network. I am really impressed with what they can do. My wife was against us getting one, but now she uses it more than I!
I so can't Wait to Buy a Google Home Mini whenever I get a chance, Google Home Mini sounds like a Coolest Gift Ever
Very well done. Informative, to the point, and without being long winded.
Thanks.

Awesome video with a lot of time and effort put into it. Thanks Brett!
A wonderful and useful tutorial Brett. I learnt a great deal with this video. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Thx a lot!
Have you noticed that the volume increase by itself sometimes when comes to ads. I am already adjusted the night mode volume too.
Finally! a tech vid that doesn't set my device off! lol TY!

That’s my problem to
Great video. Do you how to change the default night mode sound from country sounds?
Go into the Routine settings and go to Good Night, you can adjust the final sound that plays at the end of the routine.

Holy Amazing!!! You rock bro.
What is your intro music?
I'm really interested in the stereo pairing feature on the Google Home Max. I kind of wish that feature was available on the other Google Home products. If I had 2 Google Home Minis in the living room for instance, and I put them into a group, would it be possible to set one up as the left channel and the other as the right channel? I only have one Google Home product of any kind, so I can't yet test this for myself.
+Lachlant1984 They will all be the same channel in an audio group. That is why the Max pairing stereo is pretty awesome.
I'm not sure but I think 'google home/assistant' has had an update and is looking slightly different
but I'm having trouble with 'linking all three of my google mini's to the one home group.
Could you advise how to link them all in the one account or how to 'reset' the google mini,
cheers
Are there any outdoor speakers that you could use cromecast audio on? Thanks !

Question: When you play a movie from Netflix on the Chrome Cast using the Google mini, can you set it to play from a specific account on your Netflix?

hi Brett can you have two accounts linked to google home without doing voice match ?
Can you use Google minis to play the sound from your tv sort of like surround sound if I have multiple google.minis
+John Erazo No, the audio and video are separate channels and can't work together.
I can't seem to get my PoS goole home mini to connect, let a lone take and advantages of advanced settings. I've looked through every online resource and video, and mine just stays in a vicious loop of doom (yes I have blue tooth enabled and yes I have tried the various wifi settings back and forth).

QQ: On the "Media playback" feature; does the target speaker have to have a chromcast device attached (or built in)?

Tech With Brett I also rebooted and refreshed.
You do a great job!
+R Coleman Thank you!
Hey Brett! Love the videos! We got google home for Xmas. One thing I'm having trouble with is the calander. My work phone is a android powered Blackberry and google does not give me my calander info when I ask about my day. I downloaded the google calander on my Blackberry and it also does not recognize the events in there either. I have the google home app installed on my Blackberry and set up our google home from there. How do I get google to give me my daily calander details? Thanks and Happy New Year!
+Lars Andersen You will need to have a Google Calendar to add events and more. When you add an event you can change the calendar it saves it too. More details here: support.google.com/googlehome/answer/7029002?hl=en
How do i turn off the network or put a password on it

Ok so I have two mini's tell me why one tells me weather for town 8 miles away out of no where when it worked fine and the other one tells me correct town I live and the weather fine still. When I ask "whats the weather"
+hdtv00 Do they both have the same address? You can check by going to the Menu in the top left of the Google Home App, More Settings, under Devices select the device ad check the address.
You are the best!

I bought the family Spotify account for $14.99 a month because I thought in order for everyone in my house can use it. Is this true or can I just link one music account and my household can use it?
Taylor Csemez if you link one account, you cannot listen to different songs on different devices at the same time. Family members will have to take turns listening to what they want. The family account let's different devices play different songs at the same time.
How to Google mini hello Google, what is the weather?
Thanks Brett
Does anyone know how to make your google home only respond to you
It is able to respond to anyone that uses the wake word, but it will only respond to your with your personal information. You can also setup digital well being where it will only play certain content for you and not for others that ask it.
i cant acees more settong on my home mini someone help me pls
Does it show up fine in the Devices tab? You may need to reboot.
can be because im from other country?
It is possible. What country?
Portugal
What language to you have the Google Home set to? Try to possibly change that if you can.
How do you find your MAC address??
Hey by any chance could you give me some smart things it would be awesome👍
How to do this in 2019?
❤❤❤
Can I please make a slight correction? The Apple Music option only allows you to play Apple Music content via voice commands on your iOS device, this does not allow you to play Apple Music content on an Android phone, or dedicated Google Home compatible device. However, there is a way to play Apple Music content on your Google Home device, and that's via Bluetooth. If you turn Bluetooth on and pair it with an iOS device, you will be able to play content through your Google Home and you will have limited voice action functionality, you will be able to play, pause and move through tracks. If you want to request a song on Apple Music via voice, you'll need to use Siri.
+Lachlant1984 Thanks for the clarification! As I don't have an iOS device I was not positive, I just knew the setting was there...
No worries Brett. In addition to that, I should also point out that if you don't have the Google Assistant app installed on your iOS device, the option that allows Google Assistant to control Apple Music content won't even show up at all. It's interesting to note that if you are an iPhone user as I am, and you select any of the settings on the main menu in Google Home, if you also have the Google Assistant app installed, when you select an option off the main menu, you'll be taken to the Google Assistant app, I think this is so you can change your Google Assistant related settings for all devices that can access Google Assistant on your account, does that make sense?
I need help I asked Google assistant to make a call to my friend to WhatsApp but my google nest mini cannot make a calls to WhatsApp assistant telling me that cannot make a calls only to Google Duo but I want it to WhatsApp I have contacts on my WhatsApp what please explain to me what I got to do to fix it and I want to add one more thing when I choose a song I asked Google Nest mini I want to play Elvis song and she's telling me only TH-cam premium users can choose a songs please help

How to make calls on google mini
Say, "Hey Google, call (person's name)." But this is only available in some countries.
I love to take your google home mini , would u give it to me?
+Pollux I could, but then what would I use?
Tech With Brett 😂👌, I thought you have more than one google home mini
Walmart has them on sale for 29 bucks and they'll kick you back a 25 dollar coupon so you're basically just paying 4 bucks in the end. Not a bad deal! Of course free would be better huh ;-)
Gary Peters lol. But I already ordered one From US to my country it cost 49$!
Pollux Well don't feel too bad. I had just bought one for that price right before they went on sale 😖
Nice phone
In asia multi user doesnt work.
How tf do u turn it off
and, there is also no youtubeon the application google hom
+Szczepan Zubrzycki It will depend on what country you are in. What options do you see now?
Tech With Brett im in UK
Tech With Brett ...no default service..it shows me ... though I have, for example, tunnel in, or deezer or google music
+Szczepan Zubrzycki What phone are you one and have you fully activated the Google Assistant app on your phone?
ok I found a reason .. I live in uk but the phone was set to Polish language .. that's why the google home application was not compatible with this language. I changed to English and I have everything
My Google home app looks different. Your one looks easier to use
A lot has changed since I made this video. Here is how to use the new app. th-cam.com/video/ICOmPm5xtzk/w-d-xo.html
