Google Nest Door

Hi, I have just installed my Google Door Bell and everything works well, I also have a Nest Hub, a Google Home and 3 Nest mini's. Everything is connected and working but I have 1 issue.

When visitor announcements are turned on, is there a way to just get the "someone is at the front door" notification to just one or two of my devices and not get a delayed echo from them all notifying me? It seems excessive to have 5 devices telling me and not being able to customise it?

Cheers!

I've seen lots of posts from other customers asking the same thing. Unfortunately, "Visitor announcements" go to all Nest Hubs, Nest Minis, and Nest speakers, unless they are set to "Do not disturb".

Hi everybody,

@ToddyV86 thanks for posting here in the community and I truly understand your concern about the visitors announcement. Aside from what MplsCustomer shared above, you may turn off the notification settings of your Nest hub or Nest minis from your app.

These are the steps:

  • Open the Google Home App.
  • Select your Nest hub or Nest mini.
  • Hit the settings on the top right.
  • Select notifications and digital wellbeing> turn off notifications.

These are the links for your reference:

Get doorbell visitor announcements on a speaker or display

Turn Do Not Disturb on or off


I appreciate the help, MplsCustomer.

Regards,
Emerson

Hello ToddyV86,

How's it going with your Nest doorbell? Were you able to do the steps above? I'd be glad to hear from you — I'd like to make sure everything is working.

Thanks,

Hi ToddyV86,

Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.

Best,
Emerson
