Hi, We got a Google Nest 2nd Gen for Christmas, it was delivered with Spanish as the default text language, how can we change it to English? Thank you.

Hi @EricNelligan

Try these steps:

Go to https://myaccount.google.com/language using the Google account you will use for setup.
Change the language to your desired language.
Open your phone or tablet's settings app and change the region/language to your desired language. Remove any other languages. You can add these back after setting up the device.
Uninstall the Google Home app from your phone or tablet.
Factory reset your device.
Install the Google Home app again, and retry setup. It should now display in the language you selected.

Dear EricNelligan,

To change your 2nd Gen Google Nest to English, use the Google Home app, tap your profile picture > Assistant settings > Languages, then select or add English as your preferred language; changes usually applys instantly but can take a few hours for the device to update, and ensure your phone's language settings also match.
