Face Match on Google Nest Hub Max

Face Match works alongside Voice Match to provide a proactive experience that's tailored to each user. When Nest Hub Max recognizes your face, it can proactively show you your personalized content, like upcoming calendar events. When you approach Nest Hub Max for the first time each day, you can also choose to view things like the weather, suggestions of music to listen to, and top news headlines of the day.

Important: Face Match is not a security feature. It's used to make your experience with your Nest Hub Max more enjoyable, convenient and specific to you. Your device may not be able to tell the difference between you and, for example, a photograph of your face. If another member of your household looks very similar to you, the device may identify them as you.

Set up Face Match

Note: You need to set up Voice Match in order to use Face Match. If you haven't set up either one, start Voice Match setup for your Nest Hub Max. When you finish with Voice Match, the Google Home app will take you to Face Match setup.

If you've already set up Voice Match on a Face Match capable display, follow these steps:

  1. Make sure your mobile device or tablet is linked to the same account as your display.
  2. Open the Google Home app Google Home app.
  3. Tap Home and then Settings .
  4. Under "Features," tap Google Assistant Face Match.
  5. Follow the in-app steps.
  6. If you want to automatically add Face Match to new devices in the same home, turn on "Devices you add later."
  7. If you want to simply look at your display to talk to Google, turn on "Look and Talk."
Note:
  • These steps won't work with a Google Workspace account. Learn how to use a Google Workspace account on a device.
  • Google Pixel Tablet doesn't support Face Match setup and management. If you set up Nest Hub Max with your Google Pixel Tablet, you need to use the Google Home app on another compatible mobile device to set up Face Match and manage your settings.

Make sure your device can recognize you

Face Match works best when the camera built into your Nest Hub Max has a clear view of your face. The best way to do this is to minimize backlighting, and make sure your face is properly lit. If the lighting behind you is too bright, it can wash out the camera or cast a dark shadow on your face. This is especially true if the light shines directly into the camera. If there's too much backlighting or not enough light on your face, your facial features may not be detected.

Additional Face Match setup tips

  • When you take pictures during setup, make sure the lighting behind you is equal to or darker than the lighting in front of you so there are no shadows on your face. Make sure that any bright lights or sunlight aren't shining directly into the camera.
  • When you capture images of your face during setup, don't move too fast.
  • Similarly, when you place your Nest Hub Max, make sure no bright lights are shining directly into the camera, and that the lighting behind you is darker or equal to the light in front of you.

Voice Match and Face Match

Voice Match needs to be turned on to use Face Match. Voice Match allows Google Assistant to recognize you when you ask questions. Face Match further enhances your experience by allowing Google Assistant to proactively identify you and show you personal and helpful content without you having to ask first.

For example, with Voice Match, you can ask about your upcoming calendar events. Face Match may proactively show them to you when you walk by the display.

Face Match requires Voice Match to provide the best possible experience. For example, if 2 enrolled Face Match users stand in front of the Nest Hub Max and one of them asks the Assistant a question, it's Voice Match that identifies which of the 2 users was speaking. By knowing which user issued the request, Google Assistant knows which of the 2 users' personalized content should be displayed on the device.

Important: Voice Match needs to be enabled in order for Face Match to work. When you turn off Voice Match for your Nest Hub Max, it will also permanently turn off Face Match for the same device. Google Assistant will no longer be able to recognize your voice or give you personal results on that device, although you can turn on personal results again. When you turn off Voice Match for the home with your Nest Hub Max, it will also permanently turn off Face Match for your Nest Hub Max. To access or remove the audio clips or photos you took during Voice Match and Face Match setup, go to g.co/assistant/match.
