Google Home doesn't understand my command "Swith off TV in 30 mins"

Hi All.

In last 2 days something happened with Google Home and assistant. It stopped switching my TV after certain amount of time. Usually I was setting up timer to switch off TV after 30 minutes using voice command. But suddenly now I am getting response "I don't know but found this result in search" I can still say switch of TV and it will turn off imidiately but with timer no chance. Any ideas how to solve the issue?

Not sure if anything changed on Google's side, but you can use routines to add in built in delays. In my bedtime routine for example, I turn on the TV, set a 30min delay, and then turn off the TV. So if you do this consistently enough, you could built it into some kind of routine instead of just saying" Turn on the TV for 30min". @Morek86
