I'm also having this same issue on my regular nest hub display. Seems like no matter how you ask for the hours it insists on showing you pictures instead. Kinda defeats the purpose having this smart display when asking a simple thing like business hours would be so difficult...

Hello folks,
We're sorry for the trouble this may have caused you.
To confirm, do your displays recognize the question correctly? Have you tried rephrasing your questions. Give resetting your display a try to see if that helps.
Best,
Alex

Here's the weird thing. I can ask the same question to the nest speaker with no issues.

Hi Mkoppler12,
Thanks for checking. Could you please provide the cast firmware version of your Google Nest Hub Max?
To check which firmware version you're on, follow these steps:

Hi Mkoppler12,
Thanks for responding. Could you confirm if you have already tried performing a complete reset to your Google Nest Hub Max to see if this would make any changes on its behavior?
Best,

Yes! I've tried all of the suggestions and the new Hub Max is still having issues with the search function. We plugged in our old device in another room, and it works perfectly! Any other suggestions? Maybe Google needs to update the firmware?
We get two completely different responses when we ask each device the same question. It's very frustrating! Shouldn't all Google devices respond just the same, as if it's the Google search bar?

Same issue here . Ive rebooted etc etc. Its very annoying and only started happening recently. PLEASE FIX THIS!!!
12-24-2022 06:43 PM
Hey folks,
Chiming in, does the same issue happen when you use the Google Assistant app on your phone?
Cheers,
Muddi
12-24-2022 07:00 PM
No. Doesn't happen on the phone or the smaller speakers.
12-25-2022 04:56 PM
Hey folks,
Thanks for the quick response. Just an added questions: What country are you located in? What is the language set on your Nest Hub Max? Also, please provide the current firmware version of your device if you haven't done it yet.
Cheers,
Muddi

For me my location is united states and the language is set to English.

Hey folks,
Could you try removing and adding your address on the Google Home app? Let's see if the answer about stores and nearest place will improve once the address has been updated.
Cheers,
Muddi
12-26-2022 08:19 PM
That didn't work. I removed my address, added it again, asked the Nest Hub Max the imple question "what time does Lowe's open tomorrow morning?" And received again a picture showing the number of Lowe's employees and Net Income. On the other hand, when I ask my Google Assistant on my phone, or the old Google Hub, they give me the 3 closest locations and their hours.
It is very frustrating and disappointing that the newest Hub Max is not functioning like it should. I hope someone figures out a solution sooner than later.

Hey Muddi,
I'm in the United States. It is linked to my Google Assistant and the language set is English (US).
Firmware version: Chromecast 1.63.324740
Fuchsia version: 8.20220713.2.194059
All of my other Google devices respond accurately with no issues. I appreciate your help!
12-25-2022 12:45 AM
My other 7 Mini Speakers work flawlessly. I’ll ask the same exact question and get the correct response. The question “What time does (insert retailer here) close tonight?” triggers it. It’s soooooo annoying that the Nest Hub - with all its additional features, can’t answer that simple question. Reboots, full reset, router reset, all suggested fixes does nothing to change this glitch.
01-04-2023 12:13 PM
So last night I asked my nest hub about a recipe and it used to read it off, plus display it but instead it just said here's a list and that's it. Then today I asked about a local restaurant hours and it just displayed pictures. It was actually working fine about two days ago, but now it's reverted back to the way it was without it working..

Hi Mkoppler12,
We're sorry to hear about this. Have you already perform a complete reset to your Google Nest display to see if this would make any difference?
Best,
Princess
01-04-2023 09:51 PM
Yes i have. And like always the regular speakers have no issues, just the display unit.

I'm glad I found this thread. I'm having the same issue with my Nest Hub Max. It was working perfectly until this week.
I just asked it "What time does Natural Grocers open this morning?" It answered "Sure, check out these pictures..."
I've tried rephrasing the question in all ways. It does not help. It only gives photos as the response to business open/close queries.
I would like help.
