https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Apps-Account/Google-Home-Public-Preview-Unable-to-join-error-message/m-p/403346#M21132 <P>Also how weird my GF, using an iPhone, had this setting enabled by default. Bet I created a Google account before her, when Gmail was launched! Good times. But still, she's had one for a deacde at least. I got my update on my virtually unused iPad Air 2, not after the app update (autos are off), but after closing the app completely, waiting a little and reopening it. Haven't bothered to see if any benefits for bigger screens are added but first glance said no. But at least the offer is there on iOS devices for those that didn't know. My GF is "admin" of my Home or so the app says (I'm the creator though) and could request Public Preview also, in Spanish as she's Spanish and her phone is in that. Nice. Too many features depend on not just English but English (US).</P><P><SPAN>That's stupid but why my phone is always on en_US. Locale/regional settings are better respected now, e.g. 24 hour clock enabled should just be automatic for apps no? It's much better but the change to Google One "taking over" the System Settings &gt; System &gt; Backups, W000T shows when last backup was done in in AM/PM. w000t? IDK date as it's always "Yesterday", but I guess the horrible month-before-day...</SPAN></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><SPAN>And there are unit settings where it's obviously needed, but hey, Desktop OS', from Linux to Windows to macOS has always had LOCALE settings where you set your region and everything from the basics to currency and thousands separators are set predefined and correct. Heck even if using colon or period to separate HHMM (hours and minutes). iOS HAS a regional setting, but it's now well respected frankly. On macOS it is... On Linux it totally is (GNOME with Android Studio for example).</SPAN></P><P><SPAN><STRONG>TLDR</STRONG>: Check that this setting is on in Desktop Site mode, and remember, it will also affect any iOS device YOU have, and Home members with an iPhone and/or tablet, even if not having the system or app in English, can request and invite. No response yet there still though. Assume it'll happen.</SPAN></P> Thu, 20 Apr 2023 16:21:49 GMT olejonbj 2023-04-20T16:21:49Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Apps-Account/Google-Home-Public-Preview-Unable-to-join-error-message/m-p/333036#M17971 <P>Finally it gives me the option to join the public preview.
