Go back to original Google home voice

I changed the voice of my Google home speakers and now the device responds completely different. I want to return to the original Google voice, but that voice option is not available in the settings (only other strange voices). Does anyone know how to go back to the original Google home voice?

Hi KS_shine,

Thanks for reaching out to the community! I understand you changed the Google Assistant's voice on your Google Home Speakers, which led to the device responding differently. You attempted to revert to the original voice, but you found that option is no longer available in your settings, and only unfamiliar voices are currently showing up. No worries, I can definitely help you with this!

Currently, the set of available voices is tied to the language you have chosen for your Google Assistant. If you are set to a language or region that doesn't support a wide range of voices, you might only see a few options.

To better investigate this situation, I’d like to ask for the following information:

Are you currently using Google Assistant or the Gemini app?
What is the primary language currently set for your voice assistant?

In the meantime, I suggest making sure your Google Home app is completely up to date, as this often resolves unexpected issues.

Keep me posted.

Best regards,

Jenniffer

Same question. Use google assistant and English is default. I want the old original voice back on my Google speakers. I don’t want to do a factory reset. Thanks.

I agree. There are too many bugs in Gemini and I would like the old voice and old google assistant back.
