Google has activated its seasonal Halloween chimes for compatible Nest doorbell devices, giving users nine festive audio tones to greet visitors. The temporary sounds rolled out ahead of the holiday and are slated to disappear on November 1. [1][2]
Nest owners can manage the sounds through the Google Home app under the Seasonal themes option, often highlighted directly on the main page. Thanks to a recent application update, users can preview each of the nine spooky ringtones on their phones without triggering the physical chime outside. The tones can also be easily switched off from the settings menu for those choosing not to participate. [1][2]
With Halloween just a couple of weeks away, it’s the perfect time to make sure you’re ready for trick-or-treaters. It’s not enough just to buy candy in bulk, of course; you’ll also need to make sure your home feels appropriately spooky, and with Nest’s annual Halloween doorbell chimes now available, the hardest part is already done for you.
