ADT+ and Google Nest

[Smithblue]

I have the ADT+ along with the Google Nest. I linked the two in order to use automations to get a voice announcement with a door is open. 
It does not work. When will this feature return?

Hi @Smithblue,

Thanks for reaching out to the community! I understand that you want to get a voice announcement using an automation on your Google Nest device when a door is open. Don’t worry! Let me help you with this.

Before we move forward, I need a few details to provide the most accurate guidance:

• Which app are you using to set up these automations (Google Home app, ADT+ app, or Nest app)?
• What is the app version currently installed on your mobile device?
• Which Nest device do you want to play the announcement (e.g., Nest Mini, Nest Hub, etc.)?

Once you provide this information, I will be more than happy to assist you further!

Best regards,

Debora

Hi Debora,

1. Google Home

2. Google Home version 4.13.57

3. Google Nest

I was told by ADT that at the end of 2025 Google did an upgrade that removed the feature that would detect the ADT sensors that would allow via automations to announce when a door is open.

Hi @Smithblue,

Thanks for sharing that information with me! Based on the details provided, I would like to clarify a few points regarding your setup.

At the moment, our Google Nest devices offer the option to create automations with various triggers. However, it can happen that certain third-party devices may not function as a trigger, causing the automation to fail. In this case, it appears that the ADT door sensors may not be fully compatible as triggers for these specific automations.

I understand that having this automation work would be a great option for you. Since we are always looking for ways to improve our services and products, please feel free to share your ideas through our feedback form. Your thoughts on this integration are very valuable to us!

I hope this helps!

Best regards,

Debora

Thank you for your response. The trigger use to work until Google did an upgrade. According to ADT they are waiting to see when Google will reinstate it. I'm told it may have something to do with the direction Google is going with Gemini.
