My cat was watching kitty TV on youtube and reached out to touch the birds. He swiped down and now I can't get YouTube back to full screen. The photos scroll, I can hear the video and if I swipe down again I can see the media tab recognises YouTube as playing. But no amount of tapping or swiping on that small YouTube window will make it full screen again. And after a few seconds, it goes back to photos. I've tried googling (on my computer) and asking this thing a million different ways to hit the keywords, but my googlefu is failing me. How do I make it full screen again without unplugging it to reset it?

Hi,
You can reboot the device from the Google Home app, I'd try that.

I don't want to have to reboot it every time because he will keep doing this. Is there really no way to just make it go back to displaying YouTube?

Hi again,
I am away from home currently so don't have access to my devices to try. Hopefully another user will help you further.

Any fix on this yet? I also suffer from this with my child swiping out and getting upset when it won't come back.

I actually is still having the same issue as well. I have tried to restart it for the past 3 times and it just keep coming back over and over.
This issue started about 2 months ago.

So whenever it got stuck, I could see that the screen no longer shows accurate information (for temperature or AQI). Which I could tell that it has lost its connection and did not 'reconnect'.
The solution I would do is just unplug and plug in the power again.
I have another Googe Hub in my kitchen and it does not show the same issue as how it would get stuck.
In general, even if my wifi were to lose connection (and its not the case here), the Google Hubs would show a different screen indicating it lost connection and also would reconnect on its own without any manual interference from me.
Thanks
