How to reset any Google Home to its factory settings
While your Google Home device is generally good to go after the initial setup process, there may come a time in which you need to restore the device to its original factory settings, whether because you’re giving it to someone else, or perhaps because the device is experiencing serious malfunctions that other methods have been unable to repair.
Google has made it easy to reset those devices to like-new condition, wiping all of your personal data and settings and allowing you to set up the device as if it was brand new.
It should be noted that while many of your Google Home device’s features can be controlled via the Google Home app on your phone or tablet, this is not the case for resetting the device to factory settings. You have to reset a Google Home via the buttons on the device itself.
It’s a simple process that can be done with the press of a button no matter which Google Home device you use. Here’s how to do it.
