Aloha,
I bought my dad a nest mini after he went blind to help him with things when we are not at home to help him. He can check the time and get some basic questions answered when he's wondering about something. The big help was the ability to call people without using his cell phone. When I first set everything up it all worked good. The system we came up with was when people would call his phone it would annouce the caller ID, then he would wait til they hung up and he would call them back using the nest and go through google voice. But now it won't show his phone number anymore and always comes up as 'Private Number.' There used to be the option to use his cellphone number and use the verification code sent via sms. That option is no longer there in Call Providers anymore and only has Google Voice and Google Fi as options. Most people don't answer private number calls and google assistant blocks them anyway. Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks,
Nick
