For what it's worth, in two years our Google Home has only 'misfired' once, and that was when someone on TV said 'Hey Google'. It is in the living room and sees heavy use by a family of five.
- Spare_account 8y ago> our Google Home has only 'misfired' once ... when someone on TV said 'Hey Google' Is that a misfire? It reacted to the trigger phrase. Have you trained it to only react to your voice (I know that's an option for Google assistant, but I didn't do it for mine).
- sp332 8y agoAmazon added a real-time sanity check, so if too many Echo devices are triggered with similar sounds within a few hundred milliseconds, it will ignore them. This was after some TV ads or shows had intentionally abused it.
- justusthane 8y agoWow! That feels kind of insane, but makes so much sense.
- eecks 8y agoIs this true? Triggering is done locally in the device.
- detaro 8y agoBut they can ignore/cancel the request server-side, so technically the detection triggers, but no command does.
