The Google Nest Learning Thermostat promises to make your home smarter, more efficient, and easier to manage, but how is the learning curve?

Some users found that their devices stopped responding to voice commands between Christmas and New Year's Day.

Perplexed Nest users had been turning to Google’s support team for possible solutions, but with little success. Luckily, Google just told Android Authority that it’s deployed a fix and that “all users should be up and running now.”

The problem led to Nest products being unable to answer simple commands, like requests for the time or weather.

A new bug is affecting some Google Nest and Home devices, preventing them from responding to basic voice commands like 'What's the weather?' or 'What's the time?' More complex commands and smart home controls continue to function correctly.
