Make a call on your Google Nest speaker or display

With Google Nest and Home speakers and displays, you can make calls to friends, family, and businesses with your voice. You can also make video calls with a Nest display. Set up the calling methods you want to use, then make a call from your speaker or display.

Note: Support for Telstra, Taiwan Mobile, and Telecom Italia has ended. You can still make calls on your Nest speaker or display with Google Meet. 

While Google Duo and Google Meet have combined into a new Meet app on mobile devices, tablets, and computers, Google Nest displays will continue to show the Google Duo icon Duo app.
