Google Home bug reportedly breaks Keep’s shopping list integration
Users are finding that Google Home’s longstanding skill of adding items to shopping lists with voice commands has disintegrated, but it all seems to be part of a strange bug for a number of people.
A bug is reportedly affecting Google Home's integration with Google Keep's shopping list feature, causing disruption for some users. The issue stems from a strange bug that has been appearing more frequently since Google began rolling out Gemini for Home. Users on Reddit have reported that when they ask Google Assistant or Gemini to add items to a shopping list, the assistant fails to do so or provides unrelated information instead (Android Authority).
This break in the usual process has left many users confused. In one case, the assistant would repeat the same question, further complicating matters. The problem doesn't seem to be widespread, affecting a portion of users while remaining a non-issue for others. Some users have found that the notes and lists setting in Google Home is disabled entirely, preventing Gemini from accessing Google Keep lists and making edits.
Despite this issue, Google Home updates have been frequent and have addressed some previous bugs quickly. However, Google has yet to address this specific issue.
