Google voice calling on a Nest

MsLaura — Sun, 08 May 2022 15:29:38 GMT

I am not finding any information about using a Nest or other Google Assistant to make calls using Google Voice. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hey MsLaura,

Thanks for visiting the Community and apologize for the late response.

Here's the step on how to set up carrier calling on your Nest speakers:

To make carrier calls using speakers and displays, customers needs to link their mobile service provider account in the Google Home app. Have them do the following steps:

Open the Google Home app .
At the top-right, tap the account icon.
Verify that the Google account shown is the one linked to the speaker or display. To switch accounts, tap the drop-down arrow , then choose another account or Add another account.
Go back to Home view then select Settings.
Scroll to Services. then tap Communication> Call providers.
Select any available service
Follow the in-app steps for the calling provider to link the account.
To call personal contacts, make sure Personal results is turned on.

Notes:

Outgoing calls (US and CA only)
Make calls to places outside the US at listed rates
Make international calls (requires a Google Voice number that has credits)
Emergency calls are not supported

Best,

Alex

Hey there,

We know you have some other things to do, how's it going with your devices? Are you able to use your Google Voice account?

Thanks,
