How Can I Reset My Google Nest?

 Most of the time, your Google Nest device may encounter issues, like not responding to your requests; it will need your help to reset it. You can reset Google Nest if it is acting strangely or has become unresponsive. Resetting it will erase any data, and you may need to set it up again.

 

Common problems that can be solved by resetting your Google Nest include a device that doesn't respond, skipping music, static, and LED lights that won't turn off. There are two different versions, and the instructions to reset Google Nest will vary accordingly. Flip your Mini over to determine its generation; if it has a slot for a wall-mounting screw, it is a Nest Mini 2, and if not, it is a Home Mini.

 

Resetting Your Google Home Mini

The speaker's reset button is located on the speaker's flat bottom, close to where the power line plugs. This circle is so small that it can hardly be seen.

 

1.Hold the reset button. After approximately 5 seconds, a warning will say, "You are going to reset Google Home."

 

2. Hold button for 10 seconds or until tone plays. "Wait for the speaker to restart" and reset after pressing the reset button, then release it.

The Google Nest Mini Reset Procedure

1. Ensure the microphone is turned off by flipping the button on the speaker's side. When you switch off the microphone, Google Assistant will notify you, and the speaker's top LEDs will flash orange.

 

2. Hold the middle of the speaker's top while pressing it.

 

3. There will be a warning that you will "completely reset this device" in a few seconds.

 

If you remove Detect from your account, it will still appear in the Nest app. Hold down the top center button on your Google Nest Mini. It is the location of the lights.

 

Only restore your Detect to factory settings if:

  • You previously deleted it from your Nest app account, but now you wish to re-add it to the same account.
  • You wish to start from scratch and reinstall Detect from the beginning.
  • If you want to keep using the device, after you reset Google Nest, you may continue to set it up the way you want. If you're giving your Nest away, you may pause at the setup page.

 

Conclusion

When you follow the reset steps, you will solve most problems with your Google Nest. It will work again, but even if it isn't, Google provides fantastic customer service to allow you to trade in for a replacement. 

 

To reset Google Nest permanently erases things, so you don't have to do it until you've tried restarting it and other troubleshooting options. Instead of restoring the Nest to factory settings, you can sometimes resolve a problem with it by rebooting it. If the problem is new and hasn't happened before, restart your device instead of resetting it.
