No doorbell (battery) ring on speakers without Visitor Announcements on?

[jamurphy]

I have Google speakers or hubs in every room, and I want the Nest doorbell to chime on the speakers, but it only seems to work with Visitor Announcements on. I don't want the voice, just the chime. Is this possible?

Google Nest does not have separate options for sending a chime versus a spoken announcement to speakers when "Visitor announcements" is enabled, though I've seen numerous posts in this forum from customers asking for this.

Thanks.  I find the voice annoying, so I wish we could just have the bell tone sans voice.

Hi jamurhpy,

I just wanted to pop in real fast and say that I can go ahead and pass your comments along to our internal teams in the form of a feature request. You're also able to submit your own feedback using the Home app, and that will be reviewed by our teams as well. I'll go ahead and do that for you now. Aside from passing your comments along, is there anything else I can help with here?

Thanks,
Jeff

Thanks, Jeff! That would be great if it could be passed along as a feature request.  Thank you for that -- nothing else needed.

Sounds good, jamurphy. 

I'll leave the thread open for another day in case anyone else has more input. At that point I'll mark it as resolved. 

Thanks,

Jeff
