How do I stop Spotify (intentionally)

I have an Automation set to "Open the bar" - that sets my lights and starts playing Spotify.

I'm trying to create a sister routine called "Closing Time" - that shuts off the lights, announces "Closing Time" and stops Spotify.

How do I automate stopping Spotify?  There's no commands in the list to STOP the music.

Any ideas?  Thanks, folks!

Hi keeps99,

 

Thanks for visiting the Google Nest Community.

 

Try this:

  • From your “Closing Time” routine, tap + Add action.
  • Scroll down and choose Try adding your own.
  • Type in the command: Stop music.
    • Note: all other actions/commands not available in the routine’s action settings, you can manually add it using this option.

 

Let me know if it works.

 

Kind Regards,
Alex
