Great video.
How do you get it to show the extended weather forecast continuously? I would like that to always be on the screen. Also, anyway to always have 1 of the cards on the right side showing with a list of my next calendar items? After being idle for a few seconds, it always goes back to showing pictures or the clock (with the current temperature only very small) and nothing else. I’d like one of the cards to always be visible on the screen. Thanks!

So this is an old video but I just got the newest Hub and I'm having problems with choosing the pictures I want to display when it's not in use. The album only has two pictures but when I select it it only shows one picture and doesn't rotate to the next one. Then after a minute or so it automatically changes back to the default pictures and not mine from Google Photos. Is there a way I can fix it to just display my pictures and to stop reverting back to the default ones?

How do i get the display setting with the weather like it is at 1:07 . It doesn't show up for me. Am I missing something in settings?

[berylwhite]

I am a real quick question do you have trouble with the texting working on the Google? Mine just does not work at all. This covers all of them that I have not just hub. Thanks for your input! You're a great help

I'm an old man. I'll probably spend the rest of my life figuring out this device.

How can me just show the current news underneath the time on Google Chromecast? Did they take away this option in ambient (Back Ground) mode?

Hey Brett, I’m having a lil problem with the light setting...

I have 2 lights kitchen and living room, google only recognized the kitchen, when I tell it to turn off the living room light...google will say “ok turning off the kitchen light” am I doing something wrong?

i don't have the "digital wellbeing" tab on my nest hub. Any ideas?

[NealAmin]

Does anyone know how to get the screen to show active timers full-time? Currently I have to ask for “how long left on timer” to see how long is left on timer, but I would prefer not to ask and just have the screen show the timer for the duration of the timer. This used to be the case for timers, I’m not sure why it changed.

I just got my Google Home Hub today so I thank you for your how to video that was very informative,

[CoryLRytherUSN-Vet]

I may have missed it, but how do you feel about the Google Hub vs. the Lenovo version? Has there been any updates to the Lenovo? I understand your not able to use the home control on that one.

[denisewildfortune]

Perfect timing! I just got home with new Google Hub. Thanks Brett!
