my google home suddenly keeps saying, "connect to the google home app"

Larry3 — Fri, 29 Jul 2022 16:49:11 GMT

I have had my google home device for a couple of years now and suddenly it doesn't want to work. When I give it a command it says, "connect to the google home app"...when I try to reset it up it gives me this error message...kGSKErrorDomain error-83905. Can anyone help me with this?

Thank you!

Hey Larry3,

Thanks for sharing details about the issue here. I know how it feels when you're having connectivity issues with your Google Home device. I'd like to dig deeper into this - where are you located? What is the language set on your device? Are there other Google Home/Nest speakers working on the same network?

To eliminate network issues, please try setting up your device using a mobile hotspot. Please note that you will need two mobile devices for this setup (one will serve as a router and the other to be used to set up your Google Home device).

Let us know how it goes.

Cheers,

Muddi
