SSID pool populating but no connections?

How far are you from the WiFi network that you are trying "mimic"? Are you sure that the clients aren't just reconnecting to the intended network (and not your spoofed one)? What kind of WiFi network are you trying to "mimic"? A PSK protected one?

Correct, trying to connect a client that has previously connected to a secured network, to a network with the same SSID that is open/unprotected will keep you waiting for a long while (like... forever...)

i assumed, so the pineap must be for broadcasting those hopefully unsecured networks collected by phone pings. Another question, so i have a google home that i can deauth and try to capture the handshake from but i often don't get it is that normal? i think the only handshake i've been able to pull is from my phone connecting im pretty sure.

What kind of wireless network is your Google Home device on? 5 GHz? If so, you won't get any handshake with the Pineapple unless you have a 5 GHz NIC attached. But, I guess it's on 2.4 GHz since you say "i often don't get" (meaning you get it at least sometime). Handshakes aren't always like ordering from the McDonald's menu, i.e. a deauth won't automagically be equal to obtaining the handshake. Sometimes you can deauth like crazy and still not get it (deauthing too aggressive isn't a good thing either). An alternative less aggressive is to just sit and wait. The handshake will perhaps show up anyway if equipment is connecting.

On the "fool users to connect to an evil twin" thing, you can look at this for some inspiration, not really Pineapple related though
