I only get Nest Doorbell notifications to one room on my Google Home app

definiteplay — Tue, 20 Sep 2022 21:08:59 GMT

I have two "rooms" in my Google Home app (excluding front door) but my Nest Doorbell only rings and shows video to devices in one of the rooms.

The only way to get the doorbell to send notifications to all devices is to put all the devices in one "room" in the Google Home app. Is it possible to have devices in different "rooms" and for the doorbell to send notifications to all devices still?

@definiteplay

"Visitor announcements" are supposed to be sent to all speakers or displays in the same Google Nest "home" as the doorbell; "rooms" shouldn't make a difference. However, if a speaker or display is set to Do Not Disturb, visitor announcements will not play on that speaker or display.

Hi, thanks for the help. I think it was just a small glitch in the end. The room needed to be deleted and then added again. Problem solved, thank you
