Something weird happening: "I'm here" sound playing

    My wife and I both own a Moto G6 plus
    A few weeks ago while listening to music using her Bluetooth headphones, some unknown music came from her phone speaker (not her Bluetooth earphones), followed by a female voice saying "I'm here" in a sing-song voice.

    The sound continued to play over the course of about two minutes but not at a set internal. The sound played despite her closing all apps and quitting all notifications.

    This then happened again about a week later. It then happened to me about a week ago but hasn't happened dinner.

    Just now, it has happened my wife again, while she was using her Bluetooth earphones again. The sound came through her phone doesn't, impossible over the Instagram story she was watching.

    Any ideas what is going on? We both have anti virus installed and when it happened me I had no apps open.

    Do you have a Huawei smart watch?
    I have a Watch GT2 and if you use the find my phone feature on watch, phone rings with female voice saying "I'm here".

    Have a look at your google assistant?

    You could be triggering a voice activated response from your phone from some spoken commands.

    Also could be triggered by your Bluetooth headphones (what model are they, a button press could be also triggering it).


    Broadcast voice messages to Google Home devices

    Edited. I use swipe type a lot and as a result get loads of errors. Not always easy to spot when I'm not wearing my glasses. Getting older sucks donkey balls, as the whipper snappers say.

    Not a Google issue. We've no Google home devices and my wife refuses to activate Google voiceAssistant. I use it but an extremely familiar with it and recognize it.

    THAT'S IT!! W00t, Thank you.

    We recently got our kids an Honor 5 band each and it uses the Huawei health app, which we have installed on our phones. Are they activating a phone finder via their fitness trackers?

    Yep, that's it.
    Great way for your kids to piss you off!
