Why I am unable to invite someone in my household? What’s not connected correctly?

Hi McGuire77,

 

Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear that you're having an issue with inviting people to your Google Home app. I'd love to know more about this.

 

  • Are you getting any messages when you try to add another user?
  • How many members do you already have in your home structure?
  • Is the person you're trying to add using a Google Worskpace email?

Looking forward to your response.

 

Thanks,

Edward

How can I add household members if they are in a G suite account?

Hey Nurse2003,

 

Anyone who joins the customer’s local Wi-Fi network gets an option in the Google Home app to join the home. This action doesn’t give the person the access to the customer’s devices, but it sends a request to the current home members. The current home members can approve or deny that request.
Certain accounts don't have the ability to be a home member. You can't invite the persons with the following accounts:
 

  • Google Workspace (G Suite) accounts
  • Google Account for children under 13 (or the applicable age in the customer's country)

Check this guide for more information.

 

Best,

Alex

Hey Nurse2003,

 

I understand how this is important for you. We're always looking for ways to improve and we'll take it as a feedback.

 

I also suggest that you send feedback using your devices by saying, "Hey Google, send feedback," or by following the steps on this link. Let me know if I can assist with anything else, otherwise I’ll be locking this thread after 24 hours. 
 

Kind regards,
