Doorbell Google Home Integration

jk1211

Are we ever going to get proper Google Home integration for the doorbell?

Right now, a doorbell press does nothing. It does not automatically appear on Google displays, and while it appears as a starter/trigger in Google home to use to start automations, does nothing from testing (as if never pushed).

I don't have an Alexa display to test if it works for Amazon, but I know the doorbell press button works fine to start a routine in Alexa. That much I've tested, so it seems fully possible but not fully baked with Google.

This is really defeating the purpose of a smart doorbell when the video feed doesn't load when the button is pressed on all smart displays; and you can't even use it to trigger an automation (like when pressed cast to x device at least).

This has been a thing for over a year now pointed out, https://community.reolink.com/topic/5430/doorbell-first-new-firmware-support-more-smart-home-features-onvif-with-two-way-audio/41?lang=en-US&page=3, and maybe/looking into, but nothing solved with it or formal response why its still broken for only Google over a year later. It's smart doorbell 101 stuff IMO.

Hi guys, I think these requests should be made to google not here. also I tried but nothing, I succeeded via Home Assistant and it works fine. Google nest is not directly compatible with RTSP like for example our Reolink app so even if you could add activate the video it would always have at least 5 6 seconds of lag if it goes well! not the best if you have to answer the doorbell. Maybe those who have Chromecast can stream the IP page of the Video Doorbell to Nest if you don't have the password in the camera.
