Trouble turning the radio on and off from my Google Nest display

DJR-AU — Mon, 11 Nov 2024 11:26:29 GMT

In the past I’ve been able to say “hey Google, turn on the radio” and my Google nest display will play the last radio station I have been listening to.

Now when I issue the same command, my Google nest display will play the song “Turn on the Radio” by Reba McEntire.

Similarly, when I ask Google to “hey Google, turn off the radio”, often google will play the “off radio” channel on TuneIn.

Is there anyway that I can stop these two frustrating things from happening?

Hi DJR-AU,

Thanks for posting. I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing this problem turning on or off your radio. But don't worry; I can help.

If your speaker or display doesn't play the radio station you requested, try these steps:

Ask for "Play [radio station name] in [location]." "Play [radio station frequency] [location]" to turn on the radio.

To turn it off, try with "Stop" or "Stop the radio."

Please keep me posted and let me know how that goes.

Best regards,

Jenny
