Google assistant shortcuts

[stuarta]

Hi guys,

I've been trying to play 181fm Kickin FM on my home mini but it just plays 181fm Chloe.

So I decided to create a shortcut on my pixel2 to play 181fm Kickin FM from tunein by just saying 'play 181fm' and on my phone it works fine, but not on the mini.

Other shortcuts I have like 'Goodnight' which then plays thunderstorm sounds works fine.

I don't have a paid Tunein subscription but frustrating that on my phone it works fine.

Well I've been reading that that's a common occurrence. Your phone can do something that your Home can't. Assistants are not as smart as our phones. I think Phil Dickerson wrote something about this on Android Central yesterday.
