Can I use Nest Mini for calls on my PC?

[eulahwu]

So getting pretty excited with the whole Google Home, I purchased the Nest Hub Max, Chromecast with Google TV, and a few Nest Mini for each room.

Now on my Work Room, I had a Bluetooth Speaker that I use it for conference calls with my PC (ZOOM/Meets/Slack/etc.) and I was going to substitute that with the Nest Mini.

However, when I paired the Nest Mini to my PC, it only acts as a sound speaker, it doesn't connect or show the microphone to the PC.

Why's that? I'm guessing is a software lock, since it obviously has a mic.

Is there a work around this?

Hi eulahwu,

Thanks for your post. That is a great question! I love using my speakers so I understand your idea.

Unfortunately at this time, Zoom and it's features of listening and speaking only works on the Google Nest Hub Max. There are many people reporting online on different websites that their bluetooth speakers (not just Google speakers, other manufacturers as well) also do not work as a microphone for zoom.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks!
