Google Mini/home spoke when i said "Alexa"

[SwathedFox]

So I accidently called my Google "Alexa" and it responded with "I know you know my name", I wanted to know why...

Hi @SwathedFox 

There are lots of odd things google will give comical replies to.

Try of instance 'hey google self destruct'

[SwathedFox]

I never even said hey google, I just said "Alexa" and it said it

Hello everyone, 

Thanks for visiting the Community.

That's pretty weird, but I appreciate your insights about this. In case you encounter this in the future, would it be okay if you can share us a short video clip of what happened so we can investigate this further? 

Best,

Hi SwathedFox,

Do you still encounter it? Have you also tried performing a complete reset to your Google Home Mini? If not, here's how: https://goo.gle/32c7nIF

Keep me posted.
