Nest home doorbell wired notifications

Hi.

I have the nest doorbell version 2 wired. I've been using both nest app and Google home app.

Everything has been working smoothly and i get notifications on every phone connected to the home account. How ever Google home keeps bugging me to transfer everything from the nest app to the Google home app which I have just done, it's now working even better on just the Google home app BUT.... we are 3 people with all Android phones (2 GOOGLE & 1 SAMSUNG)And it is only my phone that gets notifications from the nest app when the bell i ring.

All 3 devices can see the device in both the nest app and on Google home. They can see the events in the history and live stream the camera. They can even talk to the person there and hear back. The only thing they are missing are the activity notifications.

And yes restarted phones makes no difference. Thinking of going back to using both nest and Google home again!

I'm guessing but, are the notifications On in the Notifications settings for the Home application in the delinquent phones?

The preceeding is not in the Home app settings, but in the phones settings.

Can't set any notifications on other 2 phones in Google home app, can only set them on my phone.  Notifications are empty on other 2 phones.

I am not sure that I understand you as my English is somewhat lacking. However, you need to set the Notifications settings to On with the togle switch in the phones' settings (called Parameters in French). See the following screenschot (mine is set to Off for Home) from an Android phone (Samsung).
