we are wiring our home with 2 doorbells, 1 at the front door and 1 at the garage. I will buy 2 Nest wired doorbells but will they each ring on the same doorbell chime box if we wire them both to the same box? And will I have to have 2 apps on my phone? null

it will ring on the same chime box. the google home app allows you to label locations of your doorbells so you will only need the one app. Just label the locations of the doorbell and it will show them both on the app.

Only one Google Home app will show two separate doorbells widgets.

Both packages will come with one chime puck each. Please use them both on each circuit on the same chime box. Should be an easy installation.

Please make sure you have more than 10 VA power output, 16 to 24V. My 16V 10VA NuTone transformer did not have enough power, so I had to replace that as well.

Hey there, swc! Thanks for your inquiry. You can have a maximum of 10 cameras and/or doorbells per home in the Google Home app. Using two Nest doorbells with one chime requires a higher powered transformer, with 24 V and 20 VA or 16 V and 30 VA.
