Just tell Google Assistant what they’re for!

I love discovering little tweaks and tricks that make Google Assistant more fun or useful. And timers are a perfect example!

If you say, “Hey Google, set a coffee timer for 8 minutes” the timer image on the Google Nest display includes a totally cute coffee pot. You get a fun image of veggies if you say it’s a vegetable timer. These little things always make me

And the timer takes up the entire screen until it’s complete—which makes it super easy to see how much time is left when you’re across the kitchen. 

Pro Tip: If you have the Nest Hub Max, it’s even easier to dismiss the timers with just a wave of your hand.
