Reset process requires no special tools

The resetting procedure does not require technical expertise or specialized equipment. It takes only a few minutes to complete on any Google speaker or display model.

Reasons for resetting the device

Users may need to reset the unit if it stops responding to voice commands or faces Wi-Fi connectivity troubles. Other situations include switching Google accounts or sending the hardware to another owner.

Device status after production ends

Google confirmed earlier this year that it discontinued the Nest Home Mini and Nest Audio models. The company stated it would continue supporting these older units with regular software updates despite stopping new sales.
