Does the Citation speaker record all my conversations?
No, the Citation speaker does not store any conversations, it listens only for a few seconds and then deletes the file. Only when using "OK, Google" or "Hey, Google" will it start recording your question in order for Google Assistant to fulfill your request. You can always delete all your recordings via "My activity" settings under your Google Account.
The 4 LED dots change to amber on my Citation speaker. What does this mean?
The amber LED lights indicate that the microphone is muted and the Google Assistant will not react to any voice keywords until the microphone is unmuted.
