About this app
When you set up a Google Home account, you can play music from a wide range of streaming services with a simple voice command. Since it’s one of the most popular streaming services on the planet, Spotify also allows its users to stream music via Google Home. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up the speaker. You'll have to select a Wi-Fi network, confirm its password , and log in with your Google account to set up the speaker. If you don’t have an account (and you don’t want to change it or set it up) you can still listen to music on Spotify via the Voice Command. When you use the “Play on Spotify” command, Google Assistant will play music from the Spotify account of the person who set up the voice match.
And occasionally, their Disney playlist ends and starts playing profanity laced Industrial. In this situation if your kids try to use your Google device it will use your 'main' google/spotify account not the one one your mobile device. This should therefore protect your mobile device or casting from getting 'stolen' by your kids.
Linking Spotify to an Existing Google Home
Google Assistant settings apply to Google Home so having a default music provider. It’s important to have Spotify as your default music provider. Even if you don’t see Spotify in the list of default apps, you should choose No default provider. That way, the Assistant will default to the one linked, and that’s Spotify.
Certain third-party devices don’t support SafeSearch. If you allow websites on these third-party devices, people who use third-party Smart Displays will not be able to view the web with SafeSearch. Pandora, Spotify and YouTube Music are three of the best available for use with Google Home. Pandora offers radio-like streaming, Spotify provides access to more than 50 million tracks and YouTube Music will allow you to listen to both licensed music and YouTube videos. With the right apps, you can make your Google Nest even smarter — allowing you to play music, adjust your home’s lighting and change the channel with your voice.

Open the Google Home app on your phone or tablet. It's the multicolored house icon labeled "Home" or "Google Home" on your home screen (iPhone/iPad) or in the app drawer . The app will now connect to the speaker and take you through a setup process.
And the third group can’t seem to find Spotify as an option in Google Home although they have a premium account and the Android app installed. This issues is not resolved the, the incorrect information was initially provided very subversively with a choice operative work "should work". Oh btw my annual report form spotify is always fun because it has the children sleep time music as my number 1 hit!
Finally, if none of the previous solutions worked, you can reset your speaker or display to factory settings. The reset procedure is different on different devices but, on speakers, you usually have a button on the bottom that you can press. After you get verbal feedback, release the button to factory reset the speaker. Let’s start by restarting the Google Home/Google Nest speaker.
I bought a family plan and still have it pay good money for it. I have many google devices paid good money for them as well. I meticulously added all my family members and their accounts to each device, had them train their voice profiles. My daughter asks her home mini "who am i" - it identifies her correctly, cool all good right? Here is me in the other room listening to EDM coding away when my music suddenly stop on my laptop and my stream is swiftly cast to the google home mini with a kids play list.
I'm considering getting Spotify Family and adding my spouse to it with her own account. Then I was thinking I'd set the account connected to Google Home as her account, not mine. So that my precious recommendations are unaffected. However, not all people in my household share my tastes. Also, if you want to set up a new Spotify account, you can do it by following steps 1-7 from above and tapping ‘create a new account’. When you do, you’ll need to follow all the steps from above once again.
When you disconnect your Spotify account, you won’t be able to use the service until you link a new account again. The following section will explain how to do this. Check the Google Account shown is the one linked to your Google Home or Google Nest device. To switch accounts, tap another account or Add another account.
I don't think this is a Spotify issue as much as a Google issue. As even my own Google Nest Hub will recognize me, connect to my phone and tell me my upcoming appointments only right after I force it to recognize such. But there after it won't give me any schedule updates like I want to hear first thing in the morning. I also have a Google Home, which is connected to my Spotify account. Type in the credentials of the new account and wait for the service to set up. Tap ‘Unlink’ to unlink the account from the device.
The Google Home app provides a great base for people who own Google Nest products, like the Nest Hub and Nest Audio smart speakers. However, it can’t do everything you may want your smart tech to do. Follow the on-screen instructions to log in with Spotify. After creating a new account, start this method again to link your account. Pandora was one of the first music streaming services offering custom-crafted radio stations but has since evolved into an on-demand service similar to Spotify. Use the Home app to control on/off, volume, playback, inputs, and more for your connected streaming and media devices.
Unplug the speaker from the power source and try giving it commands to play music on Spotify. Also, ensure that the speaker is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network. My recommendations are permanently ruined by a week of the kids having unfettered access to a Google Home which I accidentally linked to my own account. We have a premium family plan and have to create a special "fake account" just to use with the Google Home device so that its a dumping for crappy recommendations and useless history. If you don’t want to use voice commands, you can enable Connect and use your mobile device as a remote for the speaker. Google’s Assistant-enabled Smart Displays can open the web through SafeSearch technology, which may block explicit websites.
