We factory reset our first generation Google Home Nest and have added device to our Google Home app, but the screen continues to display "open the Google Home app to link your account." We can control the volume from the app and reboot the Nest from the app, but the Nest continues to display the same message.

Hello Helena D, 
 
I am sorry that you are encountering this connectivity issue with your device. I understand your concern. The Google team is aware of this issue and is investigating a possible cause. There are no other steps to take at this time to troubleshoot.
 
I just wanted to check in, has this issue resolved on its own for your device?
 
  • If YES (has been fixed), could you please send feedback with the words: "GHT3 Nest Hub link account issue fixed" with an explanation of the situation?  
 
  • If NO (has NOT been fixed), could you please send feedback with the words: "GHT3 Nest Hub stuck on link account screen" with an explanation of the situation?
 
Your feedback is greatly appreciated, as it will help our engineering team address this issue.
