GH app only allowing 1 "presence sensing" action for home/away routine. Why??

[thebozfactor]

      I have been trying every day since I just recently purchased my new Nest Hub Max, to try and make it allow for more than 1 action to start via presence sensing for my home/away routine, but cannot figure out a way to make it work.

     Example.....I currently have it set so the camera turns ON for "away," and OFF for "home" via presence sensing, but wanted to ALSO have the volume on my Nest Hub Max turn up from 40% to 100% when I'm AWAY via presence sensing, so that if my camera on my NHM alerts me that someone is in my room whos not supposed to be there, like a burglar for example, I can use the speaker button on my Google Home app to loudly project my voice through the NHM to let that person know I see them and I'm calling the police. And then I really was hoping to lastly have the volume on my NHM turn back down to my normal listening volume of 40% when I got back home, and my Google Home app switched back to "home." I hope I've explained this clearly. For those who understand what I'm trying to say, do any of you know what I can do to fix this? Thank you very much.

Hello thebozfactor,

Thanks for visiting the Community.

Please note that home and away routines are for home automation devices only like cameras, thermostats, lights and plugs that are compatible with the Google Home/Nest devices. Presence sensing works with home and away routines if you enable the "Allow this home to use phone locations." Visit this link for more information.

For adjusting the volume and broadcasting a message to your Google Nest Hub Max, I suggest that you create a normal routine on the Google Home app. Here's a link that will be helpful to you.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Muddi
