Google Confirms Nest Hub 2 Bug That Misstates PM Alarms as AM

Overview

• Reports, which spread Friday from a Reddit post to multiple tech sites, describe a second‑generation Nest Hub reading back afternoon alarms as morning.
• The device’s display shows the correct time and the alarm still rings at the intended hour, so the fault is in the spoken confirmation.
• Google acknowledged the issue on its Nest support channels Friday and said it has identified a fix, with release timing to be announced.
• Early testing points to the problem being limited to the second‑gen Nest Hub, as a Nest Mini v2 responded with the correct AM/PM.
• Until the update arrives, users are advised to confirm the time on the screen after setting a PM alarm or use a phone alarm to avoid confusion.
