Timer won’t audibly ring

[ClarkFam7]

My google nest will set a timer but when timer goes off, no sound comes out.  I have checked the volume prior to timer and it’s on loudly.  It’s been unplugged and plugged in many times with same result. Thanks.

Hi ClarkFam7,

Have you also checked the device settings for alarms and timers volume?

1. Open the Google Home app 
2. Touch and hold your device's tile.
3. At the top right, tap settings ⚙️
4. Then select 'Audio' > 'Alarms and timers'.
5. Adjust the volume slider.

I have tried that multiple times and I adjust the volume to 8, 9 or 10 even and no sound comes out when my timer goes off

I have a Google Nest Hub and it has the same issue, timers won't audibly ring, despite volume being adjusted. Are you able to share how this issue was resolve please. Thank you.

Hello pinklady,

Sorry to hear that you're having issues with your Google Nest Hub. A few questions: when did the issue start? Is there a sound for alarms? How about when you're playing music?

Let's go ahead and reset your Google Nest Hub by pressing and holding both volume buttons together, at the back of the Nest Hub, for about 10 seconds. You'll hear your Google Assistant confirm that it's resetting the Nest Hub.

Let me know how it goes.

Cheers,

Muddi

Thanks, Muddi.

The sounds were find with alarms and music, it was just the timer which had  no sound. Resetting it has resolved the issue. Thanks so much 😊.
