no fire drill manual mode?

justsoicanpost — Wed, 26 Oct 2022 10:21:26 GMT

this seems like a pretty basic feature request guys. there’s no way to run a manual alarm to run a practice drill? I need to know that everyone in my house will wake up in the middle of the night. this is going to work if it shuts off after 20 seconds (i have a hearing impaired family member).

I think this is a fantastic feature request @justsoicanpost - I highly suggest that you write this suggestion in the feedback section in the Google Home app. If you open the settings, you'll see the option for feedback/suggestions. I'll do the same because the more people that make the feature request, the higher it goes on the engineers priority list. Hope this helps!

Hi folks,

@justsoicanpost we hear you. Our team is working hard to deliver the best experience for our users. I'd suggest you send feedback about this using this form to let the Google Engineering team know about this. While they won't respond directly back to you, this is the best way to let them know about this. Let me know if I can assist you with anything else, otherwise I will be locking this thread in 24 hours.

I appreciate the help, @MrVacca.
