Hi all, I have looked every for an answer to this. All of my Home hubs are set to show pictures from my google photos. Until recently they have been working fine. Now they will show pictures for a few minutes then show information such as weather, and news. After a minute or so, it goes back to pictures then eventually back to the news, and so on. I do not want to see the news and temp just my pictures. Is there a way to turn this feature off? It is driving me crazy. Thanks in advance for any help.

Sorry about that. That is what I get for trusting DuckDuckGo then not verifying on my hub. Don't look like you can turn off the news. found the following from google. You can turn off the weather. go to your home app, tap on the hub, tap on the three dots at the top right, tap on photo frames setting.

That still doesn't do it. Mine is off. That just puts on or takes off the weather indicator that is on the face of the Hub. You can also turn off and on the time.

Oh, that weather, not the other. I think you are out of luck there too.

Actually, I did finally get ahold of the answer for it. For anyone else having this problem here is the fix.

You could try turning off the ultrasound sensing if you have it enabled. If you are walking past or near the device regularly it will keep flicking off photos.

Go into the Home app on phone, select the speaker, go into settings, Recognition and Sharing menu, and toggle the ultrasound sensing option off.
 
Try this:

On your phone open the Home app. Select your Nest. Then the settings cog in the top right corner. Select photoframe. Scroll down to the bottom and turn off whatever notifications you dont want to see.
