Google Home does not play TuneIn radio stations anymore

Since a couple of days when I ask to play my usual radio station Goggle Home responds "Sorry I do not understand".

The same with all my other Google Home devices at home.

When I ask for any radio, Google Home plays random music on Spotify.

I'm in Belgium, language setting is French.

Before that, all worked well for any TuneIn radio station.

I reset all the devices and re-installed them from scratch ... no improvement

Same for me, it looks like Google silently removed TuneIn from the hub. Asking specifically for TuneIn results in a “This content is not available” response. I’m in Canada.

Restarting the hub did not help, it looks like the feature is gone since yesterday (it still worked earlier this week, I use it every day!).

Thanks for the response. It's a pity that this service is gone without notice or explanation. 

Any idea about other radio services that would allow to listen to news, infos, ... ?

I've found a workaround... If you ask in English, instead of in French, then it works!

Confirmed!! This works for me too. Wow...

it doesn't work for me, from France

Same problem but asking in English doesn't work, do I need to factory reset the de ice and then change language?

That's what I did yesterday but it did not change anything.

As written below, this morning all was back to normal

Don't ask me why but since this morning it works OK again (in French and in English) 

Must have been  a temporary bug with either Google or TuneIn

Yeah it seems to work now. I've contacted Tune-in yesterday maybe they fixed the issue

Yeah working now. Problem solved. 

By the way, I discovered that there is a France Radio app on the Google nest by asking it to play ''FIP jazz''...

Hi folks,

 

Thanks for posting. I’m glad that it’s working now for others. For those who aren’t, try to refresh your devices and observe if it makes a difference. First, reboot your Wi-Fi router, and once the network is back up, do the same thing to your Google Nest speakers or displays.

 

Regards,

Juni

Hi.

Since 3 days now I have this issue again. Before, when asling to play the radio (in French), it did play the station I wanted. Since Tuesday, same.command has my N'est trying to play KYCP or so...to finally says this station is not available. 

Rebooting the N'est does not solve
