    You can have multiple users on the Pixel Tablet. Google made a whole new UI for user profiles specifically for the tablet. Each user gets their own customization and apps. Sure it’s not a nest hub, but it’s not meant to be?

      But while on the nest hub it’s completely frictionless, here you need to change user on the touchscreen before speaking, which makes it completely pointless because in that time you could do the action manually.

      Example turn off a light. You speak the order and it “doesn’t understand” because it’s on the kid profile. So you go over there, change profile, speak again, wait for the response… In the same time you could have done that action manually much more faster

        Yes agreed. The Nest hub, and the rest of the stuff in our network right now, knows who is talking to it. I’d not upgrade or side-grade yet just to get something I can take off the dock.
