How do I add a delay in the routines "Bedtime" and "Good morning"?

Paxter — Wed, 10 Aug 2022 19:47:26 GMT

In custom routines I can choose to add a delay between tasks, however I can't find that in the "Bedtime" or Good morning" routine. Can anyone help me?

Hi Paxter,

This feature is not available for the pre-made routines, you would need to create a custom routine with a different name.

Hi Cathal,

how come? It feels strange to create a new Good Night-routine, containing all the same tasks as before, however with a delay as only difference.

Hi again,

As this is a community forum and I am a volunteer (normal user myself) I don't have that answer, sorry.

I would recommend NOT trying to use the same wording for your custom routine though, it will not work properly.

Leaving feedback for the Google Nest team is the best way to request a feature is added.

Hey there,

Thanks for the help Cathal_S!

Paxter adding a delay in the routines isn't supported. We're always looking for ways to improve and we appreciate your feedback. I also suggest that you send feedback using your devices by saying, "Hey Google, send feedback," or by following the steps on this link. Let me know if I can assist with anything else, otherwise I’ll be locking this thread after 24 hours.

Kind regards,

Alex
