Asked 6 years ago by Range.

Q: QuestionI was wondering if you can put the camera video on a tv or monitor all the time? We would like to use them like a mommy cam.

Asked 6 years ago by Dschneiter.

• A:Answer The only way that can be done is, by installing the Nest app on a Smart TV that you are not using for anything more than security of your home. This Nest Cam model is only designed for outdoor use, I would recommend a Nest Cam indoor, or the Nest Cam IQ indoor models.
