My old voice assistant just stopped working after a system update last night.

I was trying to set a timer for laundry and it just froze, then gave a weird error code I'd never seen before. I had to reset the whole thing and now it feels like it's lost some of the little quirks I liked. Has anyone else had a smart home gadget get worse after an update?

A weird error code? That’s new.

Actually, error codes pop up all the time in the logs. They're just usually hidden from the user. This one probably slipped through a new update. Makes debugging a real pain when they show up for everyone to see.

Check the support forums for that error code. I had the same freeze-up with my kitchen speaker. Found a thread where people said to clear the device cache in the app settings. Worked for me and it kept the old voice profile. Might save you another full reset.
