My Nest Thermostat, which I have had and used with Alexa for years will not migrate, as required by Google. It currently works fine, in Alexa it shows it is connected via "Nest", despite my not having the Nest app on my phone or the Nest skill. Per the migration instructions, I downloaded the Google Home app to set it up for the migration. My Google account is a Workspace Basic account. When I try to add the thermostat to Google home, I get the message "Searching for devices" which brings up only "Chromecast found - Would you like to set up Boom boom room TV?" First, I have neither Chromecast nor a "boom boom room TV"! Other attempts have resulted in the message "Discover isn't available. It looks like Discover isn't available on your Google Account." I have tried in Google Home setting it up both as a "New Device" and "Works with Google" and gotten the above results.
According to Google, I will no longer be able to use it come September 29 unless I follow the migration instructions which simply don't work. Google has not been forthcoming with any workable solution. Has anyone had the same situation and found any solution? If not, I'll be forced to buy a new thermostat and I can guarantee it certainly won't be a Nest after this mess.
