I am trying to set the clock as the default screensaver on my Google Home hub. The instructions tell me to open Google Home app select the device open settings and scroll down to ambient mode. I can’t find ambient mode on my phone, which is android or on my tablet, which is iOS.

Hi Johnlantto,

 

Thanks for reaching out to our community.

I’m sorry to hear that you are trying to set the clock as the default screensaver on your Google Home hub, but you can’t find the ambient mode on your phone (Android) or on your iOS tablet. No worries, help is here.

To better assist you, I would appreciate it if you answered the following questions:

  1. Could you please confirm what model of Google Nest hub you have?
  2. Is your Android mobile device and your iOS tablet connected to the same WiFi network as your Google Nest hub?
  3. Can you please send me a screenshot of what happens when you open the device, go to settings, and scroll down?

In the meantime, you can try to set up the clock as the default screensaver on your Google Nest hub. You can do it through the Google Home app on your mobile device or using the Google Nest Hub screen. Here are the instructions to do it:

Using the Google Home app:

  1. Open the Google Home app.
  2. Tap “Favorites” or “Devices.”
  3. Tap and hold your Google Nest hub tile.
  4. Tap “Settings,” then select the option “Photo Frame,” and then adjust the settings you want.
  5. Select “more settings.”
  6. Choose the option “Time.”
  7. Tap on the option “show.”

Using your Google Nest Hub screen:

  1. From the bottom of your Nest display screen, swipe up.
  2. Tap Settings.
  3. Tap Photo Frame to adjust the settings you want.
  4. Select “more settings.”
  5. Choose the option “Time.”
  6. Tap on the option “show.”

Thanks for your kind attention, I will be looking forward to your response.

 

Best regards,

Virna
