Family Notes not display and unavailable to family

Machpants — Wed, 25 May 2022 08:36:35 GMT

Hi All

When I create a Family Note on the Nest Hub Max, it does not display for 24 hours as it should. Family memebers can ask to see those notes, and that works, but that defeats the 'sticky note' idea for it.

In addition, whilst my shopping list works for all the family, Family Notes that I have created in Assistant aren't available when a family member asks to see Family Notes, despite having been shared with the family group.

Any ideas/help?

Hi Jake, as stated when anyone of the family (apart from me who created the note) asks the Nest Hub Max to see family notes it says 'there are no family notes' whereas when I ask it shows the notes. This defeats the point of family notes>
In addition Family Notes do not display on the front page for 24 hours like a sticky note at all

I am keen to see if an answer for this is coming.

Tried leaving a note for my wife. Experienced the same issue. Then found notes from 322 days ago (the last time I tried this feature). I had hoped for a fix by now.

Hey all,

Sorry for the late reply. When creating a Family Note on a display that belongs to a home, the note is visible on all displays in the same home. If you have a Google Family Group setup, Family Notes won’t be automatically shared with other users in the group unless they view them on the display. Once a Family Note is created, it sticks on the ambient screen on all displays in the same home for 24 hours. After that, it will show up on the My Day page on displays. Please let me know if that helps, or if you have any questions from here.

Best regards,

Jake

Sorry, that does not help.

You have stated what the Family note should do, not what this and another thread and many threads on reddit are saying does happen. We already know what it should do.

The note does not show for 24 hours or any hours on the ambient display.

In addition no one in my family, apart from the creator, can see a fmily notes and lists - when someone asks to see family lists Google Assisstant says you have none unless you created those lists

This is an active, on going issue. Please do not close this thread. It would only create further separation of the issue and prevent others from coming forward.
