I tried changing the device name on my best mini but when I hit save it goes back to the original name it was saved as. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi amydutt1,
Glad you reached out.
To make it easier to identify and control devices you set up in the Google Home app, you can change the names of your devices. You can follow these easy steps:
In case these steps won't work, I would suggest to reset your Google Nest Mini and follow the set up guide.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Princess

I currently have the same issue. The instructions you gave did not resolve it. Are there any other workarounds?

Hi everyone,
Thanks for posting.
Sorry to hear about this. Can you please check if your Home app is on its latest version? Make sure to update the app and if it still won't work, let's try to perform a complete reset to see if that would make any changes.
Let me know how it goes.
Best,
Princess

Hi, thanks for the reply. It turns out that I couldn't make the change on my Pixel phone, but i borrowed my wife's iPhone and it renamed with no issue. Embarrassing? Yes. Ironic? Also, yes. But it is fixed now.

Hi mwsobrien,
I appreciate you trying to check other phone to see how it goes. There might be updates on other devices that's why you have encountered such thing. Just keep on monitoring and update the app from time to time to see if it will work on your Pixel phone.
Meanwhile, I'll consider this post complete and will lock the thread in 24 hours. If you need any assistance with your Google Nest speakers, feel free to start a new thread and we'd be glad to assist.
Best,
Princess
