Routines work well for the radio, I find

Create a new routine with any keywords you like, and type in "play rte 2fm on tunein radio" as the action. Should hopefully work for you when you then say the keywords

I have a problem with the Photo Frame. I have maybe 50 pictures in an album and the majority display ok, but selfies don't seem to show on the Hub at all. Any ideas for this?

rustledjimmies

Is this a portrait Vs landscape thing maybe?

Could be on the money here.

On mine - it seems to put portrait photos side by side with a landscape one as shown attached.

It also automatically crops some of the photos for some strange reason.

rustledjimmies

Yeah, those photos look goofy...

I'll show myself out.

Double C

Nah it's not portrait vs landscape, there are plenty of portrait photos showing. Weird one

Strangely the UK site still had stock but given the brexit world we are in ordering from there wasn't an option. Am hoping the deal reappears soon....need a third one lol

How do you set up routines ? Can't find it in the Google home app

I had this on my old phone - Routines was not displayed as a button in the main app.
The way around it was to tap "Home" under your home name then set to "Away" then set to "Home" again. Then go to Recent Events (bottom right) and you will see the event of the routine running. Tap edit the routine. Tap Save without changing anything and you'll get the routines listed.

A pain....

Does anyone know, in exactly, the same context, how to get Newstalk streaming as it always plays back some American station for me!?

Looks like next gen incoming but not a huge upgrade anyway.

Play Newstalk FM.

I have the same issue with Alexa, got around it by saying "play Newstalk from Tunein".

That's interesting because the common denominator here is TuneIn which is the source of most of these issues.

Yeah have to say when I ask Google to play heart, capital or smooth UK as its coming from global player....no issues.

I suppose to be fair many of the names aren't unique. But you would think the algorithm would default to playing the nearest one to you. Instead when I ask for Newstalk I get Newstalk KZRG - https://newstalkkzrg.com/

So in one sense it is streaming Newstalk. But not the Newstalk that I want. So i guess he question is how to differentiate stations with the same name....

Anyway. To return the bargain. I also hung on to buy. And seeing same out of stock. The price is still coming up at 59.99 so maybe there is hope.....

Are you guys still getting a weird US ad before an Irish ad before the radio station comes on from tunein?

About one time in ten. I got a German ad the other day.

Time to mark this one as expired - it's back in stock at full price.

EDIT: and now back out of stock even at full price.

As well as the nest cameras, it works very well with the nest doorbell.

When the doorbell is pressed, it displays the camera and some options on the touch screen.

Some of the reviews I looked at (surprisingly) said it didn't perform this function very well as in sometimes the doorbell alert didn't pop on the Hub or was significantly delayed and even more bizarrely the option to talk to the person at the door, which available though the Nest app on phones etc, is not available on the Hub.

Are either of the above true or have more recent software updates fixed these issues?

Also, this is a more general query on the Nest Hub, is it possible to load apps onto it like a tablet, particularly an IPTV app or are you limited to the pre-installed apps which I assume are the Google family of apps such as YouTube, Keep Notes etc?

If you change your language to English (UK) you should get routines in the Google Home app.

The Google home mini sound isn't as good as the nest mini. If that's the comparison you're asking about. The nest mini has a fuller sound.
Nest mini also has a notch on the back so you can hang it on a screw in the wall.

Fyi, the Google home mini is long discontinued, though perhaps you're talking about versions of the latest nest mini, which I'm unaware of
