Google Home Mini brings back play/pause function

Google Home Mini raised quite a few eyeballs at its launch given its price tag and functionality. But looks like, the device is not working up to expectations as users are reporting Home Mini crashes when the smart speaker is played at high volume. Slashgear spotted complains cropping up on Google’s forums and Reddit about the device crashing while playing loud music.

Notably, not every Home Mini is crashing under the given circumstances but the problem surely is widespread. Though the company has acknowledged the issue, the reason why it’s occurring isn’t clear. It’s not uncommon for speakers to cut out at high-levels, however, so it’s seemingly a power-related problem.

Meanwhile, Google Home Mini (and Google Home) have been the subject of some good news this week when it was discovered that they can now respond to two voice commands at once.

Google has already responded to the Home Mini crash testimonies in the Product Forums and requested that users submit a feedback report to help it address the problem. For now, the easiest fix is keep the volume low and let the Mini work perfectly.
