Google Nest Hub Tips & Tricks you should try.

In this video, I show you tips and tricks that I use to make the most out of the Google Nest Hub.
This includes Setting routines to the nest hub will automatically complete multiple tasks with a single phrase. Watching KZfaq and Netflix on your home hub. Setting timers and reminders. Using the Hub in the kitchen to help with recipes. Finding your phone using the Google assistant voice match feature. And more, I also give an overview of the interface on the Nest hub.
The google home hub is a great device and in many ways, it is a better option than the Amazon Echo. It uses the Google Assistant so if you are already in the Google / Android echo system it is well worth considering.

Thanks Daniel, clear and useful videos. I have a number of devices hooked up through Google Home... five weeks ago I went to buy a Nest Hub as I wanted constant voice control (as opposed to pulling out my phone all the time.) They were out of stock, and as the salesman was someone I trusted after previous good advice, I let him talk me into an Amazon Echo Show 8, because "It is better supported". Bad move! It works very well, but as I am so heavily invested in the Google regime, I only added complication and frustration! Grrrrr! Today, I finally gave in and went to buy the only Google Nest Hub they had managed to get in stock. As the Dipstick went to hand it to me, HE DROPPED IT! Aaaarrrrggggghhhhhh!! It was probably OK, but with the corner of the box all caved in, he got to keep it, and I am in "On Hold" mode. 🥴

Thanks Daniel, I love the reveal of saving recipes for quick recall. I do have a question. Is there a way to rearrange the apps in the shortcut line. There are a few (like Slack) that I would like to remove and add some that I use regularly to the shortcut row.

Yes you can, I just discovered that! But to make it work, you need to create a brand new routine, the preset ones doesn't have that option. Then under condition you can add a time or sunrise sunset. Hope it helped you.

HI, very good explination. I also like the display. Since last week I have 2 mini's speakers and I am unhappy, that they are not able to play a song I am asking for :-( When i ask my display to play for example: OK Google play the song "like a prayer from Madonna" then the display play the song, but the mini speakers responds that this is only possible with an you tube premiun account :-( Can you explain, why it works on the display but not on the mini ? Thanks in advance! Merry Christmas and a happy new year!!

The display can also stream KZfaq clips, the speakers can't play KZfaq (since they don't have a screen I suppose).

Really good video, I learnt a lot. First big question, I'm looking to get a hub for my bedroom mainly as an bed side close and assistant for that room. Is there any way to not have the screen on all day long? Seems a waste of energy when I'm out the house. Also how on earth did you get global player? I can't find that service on chromecast! I appreciate your explanation of how to set routines, that was pretty straight forward 👍🏻

Yes, you have to go into the Google Home app and go to the Hub settings, there is an option to turn the display off after 5 mins of inactivity.

You have to sign into your account on your nest hub. But what if everyone in the house want to use and control lights , thermostat and view door bell camera alerts? How do you manage the sign ID if you are sharing the nest hub?

Also ¥øu Actually Don't "Sign Into" The NestHub Like ¥øu Would.. Say, Facebook. ¥øu Instead Link Your Google Accounts Together Using Google Home. -Home- Is Designed Too: - Set Up "Familys" (Linking Google Profiles Together) - Set Up Different Rooms. By Integrating Bunches Of Different Brand Smart Devices Together Seamlessly. - & Set Up ₩hat Are Called "Rules" Where ¥øu Can Execute Multiple Commands On Various Devices Simultaneously (Or However You Want Really) Using A Word /Or/ Phrase /Or/ Even A Gesture I Think The Nest HUB Is Just An Extention Of Google Home (Used Too Curate The Rules You SetUp &Too Use / Access Google Assistant)

Have you tried asking for the station you want it to play? If that doesn't work you could try casting the station from your phone.

I can't figure out how to dismiss a repeating reminder using my voice once it's been shown to me. It always wants to cancel them instead. But since my reminders are repeating, I don't want to cancel, just dismiss it until next time. It's easy to do this from the notifications shade, but I want to do it by voice. Does anyone know how?

An Simple way off the top of my head would be Just Turn The Reminder Off Then Back On with your voice It would require couple extra words..

I know, This is a bad disadvantage of Google Home over Alexa, Alexa responds much faster and prioritizes spoken responses, and Google Assistant most of the times prefers not to speak and just show the results on the screen, and if I tell her to read it out loud, no way, very frustrating
