Google Assistant can't understand me (performs wrong action)

[KamsK]

My Google Home devices perform completely wrong actions almost half of the time.

As an example - if I say "set light to 20%" I most frequently get response like "done, your alarm is set to 5pm" (time seems to be completely random). After I ask it same thing again, I get another, non related answer - like annotation to movie, advice on cooking cabbage etc. Lights get adjusted only on 3rd-5th attempt.

In Assistant history, all recordings sound reasonably clear and pretty much the same, but the text Google has "herd" half of the time is completely random BS. How can "turn off tv" be heard as "snooker on action 2"?!

Has anyone experienced something similar? Any ideas?

Hi KamsK,

Thanks for posting.

Sorry to hear about this experience. A few things I'd like to verify-- when did the issue start to happen? If you have multiple Google Nest speakers, are they also giving the same results?

Let's go ahead and try first to completely reset your Google Nest speakers and see if there's any changes on its behavior. Keep me posted.

Best,

It gradually become worse during this year. My partner was first to notice the problem, initially we assumed that it is due to the fact that she sometimes speaks very quietly. I have 4 different devices (Max, Home, Home Mini and Nest Mini) across my home, all act the same. I will start with resetting the one we use the most.

Hi KamsK,

Thanks for the update. Have you checked the recordings of your Google Nest devices to confirm if the commands are heard? To check that, you can access this link.

Keep me posted.
