Nest’s holiday themes will automatically play on all other Nest devices on your home if you have visitor ads enabled, like traditional notification tracking. However, you can’t play Addams Family all year and have the sounds turned on – at least not yet.
Final note
Nest Hello Doorbell has a feature called “Holiday Sounds.” This feature allows you to create custom sounds that play when someone rings the doorbell. You can choose from a variety of holiday tunes, like “The Christmas Carol,” “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” or “Auld Lang Syne.” To enable this feature, you must first set up your Nest Hello Doorbell. Once you have done this, you can then add the “Holiday Sounds” category to your home’s settings. Once this is done, anyone who rings the doorbell will hear one of these custom sounds.
