I want google to notify me when there is movement, not just when someone presses the doorbell

chrishemeyer — Thu, 02 Jun 2022 20:51:41 GMT

I would like to be notified when there is movement, not just when someone pressed the doorbell. I need to see if someone is out on porch even though they do NOT press the doorbell. I have everything set up for Announcements with Google but it only notifies me when someone actually presses the doorbell. How do I get it to ALSO notify me if there is movement?

@chrishemeyer

Do you have "Push notifications" selected under "Notifications" in Settings?

Yes I do and I get that notification that pops up on my phone. But is there anyway to have my google speakers tell me 'there is motion at the front door' as well?

@chrishemeyer

We can get notifications for motion or people on our phones, but Google Nest does not give us that ability on our Google Nest Hubs and speakers, though I've seen posts in this forum asking for that capability.
