Google Nest Routines

Tinker1 — Fri, 19 Apr 2024 06:28:37 GMT

I am trying to set up a routine when I go to bed.

The routine i have set up is When I say Good Night

. turn off after 30 minutes

. Start Media playing (ie Radio Station)

The routine stipulates that start Media playing must be the last action, however the sleep timer cannot be set as their is no Media playing.

Is their a solution?

Hi @Tinker1

Here's what to do.

Create a 'Personal' routine, (Note this does not work with 'Household' routines)
Give it an activation keyword of something like 'Good Night' as an example.
Click on 'Add Action' and select the ;Try adding your own' type and give it the command:

Play Radio xyz or whatever.

Click on Add Action and select the type of 'Delay Start'.

Enter the time to delay as 30 minutes
After this you will then see an entry for 'After 30 min'
Add another action again of the 'Try adding your own type'

And give it the command 'Stop playing'

That's it.
