Radio has disappeared from Google home

[EllenR9]

Having worked since we first set up the system I ask Google to play ... radio every day. Today it tells me it can't do that. I've looked in the media section of Google home and Radio has gone! How do I add it again?

Same here … it just keeps saying I dont know and giving me search info

[EllenR9]

If you click on the media icon on the phone so it no longer says Radio as an option. I've now been on to Google chat & they're going to send an update 'over the air'.  I hope it works,  it's so irritating 

[Rhubarb]

Hope it helps you. Its weird altho it plays BBC radio it wont play LBC … no option for  radio has ever shown on mine… will contact them. Thanks.

Hey folks,

We're sorry you're having trouble playing Radio on your Google Home devices, let's see what's going on.

What's the exact command you've used in playing radio? Have you tried reinstalling your Google Home app? Also, can you still play regular music on your speakers? Could you try resetting your speakers to see if that works?

Thanks,

Alex

It has nothing to do worth the command I use or my speakers. The fact is that Google have removed the availability of Radio on the media settings. 

I have been on live chat with Google,  uninstalled the app,  I have followed all their instructions & even they didn't know the solution. They told me they would escalate it & let me know. To date,  nothing!

Hi

Yes, there has still been no update to correct this. There is still no option to play the radio & Tunein it's still not an option. When will Google do something to rectify this?
