Speaker group voice and routines

I want to normalise all speakers in my household to a set level each morning or evening. However this does not work. I cannot target a speaker group Google just ignores what I say.

 

What is the limitation I am facing here?

Never mind I just deleted the speaker group and will pretend that feature doesn't exists.

Hey there Manish1, 

I'm sorry for the troubles that you're having in regards to your devices, I know it's confusing, but I'm happy to help. 

 

To clarify, are you trying to get the speakers in your home all set to one volume? Or what do you mean to a set level?

 

I look forward to hearing from you. 

 

Best regards, 

Garrett DS

Yeah, I want them all set to a specific volume, level or percentage. Google one point in time allowed setting the volume with a percentage but now only respond to levels between 1 and 10.

 

I have a speaker group but it seems like an odd feature because today I tried to adjust the volume through the app and that didn't work. 

Not sure what is going on but these nest/Google home features are degrading in the Google standards” of good user experience.

 

Just to be clear I can't figure out a voice command and I can't figure out how to set a routine to do this and the app speaker group volume control doesn't set them all to the same volume.

Hey there Manish1, 

Sorry to hear about the troubles you're having. For anything to do with voice commands and the Google Assistant I'd suggest visiting our Google Assistant Forum and writing to them there as this is a question that they would be able to help answer.

 

In regards to setting all the volume to be the same, I would suggest reviewing this article as it shows how you can adjust every speaker within a groups' volume at the same time within the Google Home app. It also gives you the steps to adjust each speaker individually as well. 

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions. 

Best regards,

Thanks for the link but that is exactly what I am doing and the volume does not change it keeps animating back to the previous volume. Sadly can't upload videos here...

Hey there, 

Have you tried doing a factory reset on the devices as well as uninstalling and reinstalling the app? You may want to also try unlinking and relinking the devices from the app. 

 

Please let me know if you have any other questions. 

Best regards,

Hmm... Feels like a lot of work to relink 5 speakers one of which is also WiFi.

 

I will give the traditional reset it all approach this weekend if I get the time and see how it goes. Thanks.
