Google Nest Hub Disable Time Out

Sirwa — Fri, 03 Sep 2021 21:10:51 GMT

Hi,

after the recent update, i cant cast my home assistant to the nest hub. A short 30 seconden and screen goes black and the smart device becomes a “clock”.

before the update there was a 10 minute delay, which also was awful. But it worked.
can i disable the time out or will this be fixed? Can i revert back to older OS? Can i disable future updates?

at the moment both my Hubs are useless to me.

thanks!

Hi Sirwa,

Thanks for reaching out! I am sorry to hear that you are having a negative experience with your Google Nest Hubs. I would be more than happy to help find a solution.

There is still a way to adjust the idle settings, however it is now 5 minutes.

Here are the steps:

Open the Google Home App
Click the display device
Press the gear icon to open device settings
Scroll down to "Display," click it
Toggle the "turn off screen after 5 minutes of inactivity" option

Hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks.
