How do I move my network from my phone to my wife's phone?

[Android Central Question]

We have mini's around....my wife (who is blind) uses them a lot. Since the network is on my phone, she can't use the mini to call me. How can I migrate the network to her phone so she can say, "Hey, Google, call Bill"?

I'm not really clear on what you mean when you talk about the network. Is this "network" the hotspot on your phone? If so - you'd have to turn on the hotspot on her phone and use the Google Home app to reconfigure the devices. Do you not have home internet that the (I assume) Google Home Mini devices can be connected to?

Sounds like their phone has the data only , but no wifi at home?

I guess I'm not being very clear. She can tell the mini, "Call XYZ" and it will, using my phone. Since my phone can't call itself, she can't say, "Call Bill". I want the minis to use her phone number, so she can use it to call me. Does that make sense?

Open the Google Home app, tap your profile picture in the top right and select assistant settings. Scroll down to the Voice & video calls section and make adjustments as needed. If her phone number is not tied to your Google account you may need to switch the Minis to be controlled by her Google account.

That's what I'm asking...is there a simple way to switch them to her account?

Under her account open the home app and configure it and should go to her account.

You may need to disconnect them from your account and reset them, all done within the Home app.
