Sound missing when saving to iPhone

This issue is still in effect despite this thread being locked

While it remains that I cannot save video using anything other than a device, to anything other than that devices local storage (iPhone) this is severely limiting.

I am using iOS 15.6 on an iPhone X.

I save to the Photos app, and when the video is available, the sound button is greyed out:

There is sound on the original file, which is available through Google Home App.

Is this a deliberate limitation applied to the videos (I am in Australia).

Thanks in advance - I really would like to get some quick assistance here - as the video history is only available for 3 days.

Hmm - so, too late now to download the videos.

For anyone reading this and thinking about purchasing or extending the service:

  • the cost of purchase and ongoing service fees, I'd recommend other products.
  • It's incredibly convoluted to set up (not allowing certain google user types, ie: accounts associated with business, with no information),
  • not being able to send videos to an already existing paid hosting on Google (of which I have several accounts),
  • and being forced after the purchase to pay for ongoing services just to access videos, is not value for money.
  • The support provided by Google is practically non-existent (see this) and when you do get a hold of someone, even more convoluted (the assistants I dealt with when trying to activate the service didn't even know about the issue with not allowing the service to operate with G-Suite accounts).

I'm sending the units back and asking for a refund - it's simply not fit for purpose.
