Huge Flaw Manager Access to all Home Members

gl2 — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 15:32:38 GMT

Google Home has a huge flaw with allowing FULL access to ALL members. My brother just removed me yet IM the one that is the owner of the Google nest doorbell and originally gave HIM access. I was able to reset the whole thing, but wtf google? How could you even have an "access details" option when there is no option to change level of access among members. At least the original home member should have SOME additional access over added members. Just plain stupid google. FIX IT!

Hi @gl2 - Thanks for the heads up on this glitch. I am going to copy and paste it into the feedback section inside the Google home app. I highly suggest you do the same as well to try and get it moved up on the engineers priority list.

It would be great if Google Nest's engineers addressed this. Unfortunately, this is not a glitch but is the way Google Nest's "homes" are designed:
