Google nest hub and speakers not announcing reminders since switch to tasks

[nberelowitz]

Hi,

I have a nest hub and a google nest mini and since the switch from reminders to tasks they are not announcing my reminders (tasks) anymore. Is this not a feature of tasks? If so how can I get the devices to announce some sort of reminder as this is what I mainly use the devices for.

Thanks!

Hi nberelowitz,
 

I know how it feels when something isn’t working the way it should. Let’s further look into it. What country are you in? Also, I wanted to confirm if these are the commands you’re using:
 

• Remind me to <title> <date> <time>.
•  "What are my reminders?" 
• "What are my reminders tomorrow?" 
• "When is my reminder to <title>?"

If yes, let’s troubleshoot one of your Google Nest devices.

1. Open the Google Home app > Devices > Choose your Google Nest device > Settings > Remove device > Remove.
2. Back to the Devices tab, scroll down to Other cast/Local devices > Look for your Google Nest device > Tap on it > Add to a room. Follow the instructions in adding it back to your room.
3. Unplug its power cord for a minute > Plug back in.
4. Set a reminder and monitor if it will be announced. 

Regards,
Alex
