Google has just released a new product called the Google Nest Hub. This device is a smart speaker that can be controlled by voice commands. One of the features of the Nest Hub is that it can be used as a digital assistant. This means that you can leave notes for it to remember. To leave a note for the Nest Hub, first open the app on your phone and sign in. Then, go to the “notes” tab and select “add note.” In the “note content” field, type your message and press “save.” The note will appear on your screen and will also be saved in the cloud. You can access it from any device that has an internet connection. ..
Family Notes appear on the ambient screen (a.k.a. screensaver) of all the Google Assistant-enabled smart displays, such as the Nest Hub, in your home. The notes show which member of the household left the note—assuming they’re registered on the device—and when it was left.

With your smart display nearby, say one of the following commands:
“Hey Google, create a Family Note. ” “Hey Google, leave a Family Note. ”
Google Assistant will ask you what the note should say. Answer with the message you want on the note. You can also say it all in one long command, like this:
“Hey Google, leave a Family Note that we went out to ice cream. ”
The Family Note will look like this on the ambient screen.
They are also displayed on the home screen. If you’d like, you can also say “Hey Google, show all Family Notes.”
To delete the note, simply select it to open and then tap the trash can icon. You can also say “Hey Google, delete Family Notes.”
That’s all there is to Family Notes! This is a simple but effective update to old-school sticky notes. Give it a try next time you need to leave a note behind!
