How to activate night mode on Google Home

Google Home is now one of the most used and well-known home automation devices in the city. The smart speaker of the Mountain View company looks like the starting point for any smart home and as such, it must respect the fees and habits of users. The microphone of the device is in fact always ready to receive a request after having received the activation command, while the cash desk has the objective of fulfilling the request through precise and timely answers.

However, requests can arrive at any time of the day and the answers come promptly with a static volume, unless the user first goes to modify it. This could, in certain cases, cause a lot of annoyance, since the volume (typically higher) used at 16:00 in the afternoon does not coincide with the preferences we would like to have at 23:00, a time when someone else in the house may already be resting. . So the “Home” application comes to our aid with night mode.
