Finding device's

[Jason3249]

Hi all, not long ago anyone in my household could ask any Google smart speaker where any device is if lost, phone's and tablets etc, but now only I can find my phone by setting up voice match, and then no one else can find my phone, I don't want voice match, and I want it the way it was where the whole family can find whatever device my family are after if lost in the home, it was fine the way it was, why mess it up 😞 

I've got all the gens around the house and they work fine apart from this problem, started to happen not long ago, one device will only work by one person, so my son's will only let it be found by him etc, Is there away to put it back to normal, so I can find my wife's phone or my kids if needed ta

Hello @Jason3249, 

Thanks for reaching out to the Google Nest Community Forum. I understand you’ve noticed a change in how your Google Speaker locates lost devices, and you’re looking to restore the previous functionality where anyone in your household could find any linked devices without needing Voice Match. I’m happy to help.

If multiple people want to use the same Google Speaker, everyone who wants to call their own phone must link their Google Account and voice to the speaker. This instruction also applies to the person who set up the speaker or display.

• To set up this feature, refer to the following support article for detailed steps: Ring your phone, tablet, or accessory with a Google Nest device.
• Once complete, the instructions say, "Okay, Google [find or ring] my phone," and the Google Assistant should ring your phone.

Let me know how it goes.

Best regards,

Daniel
