    Easy to install and add to my Google home. Wish they worked with my Nest app as well and could be synched to view all at once instead of toggle between cameras. Great addition to our smart home.

      Hi Chris, thanks for posting your feedback on Nest Cam (battery), and we’re glad to hear it’s easy to install and add to your Google home. We understand that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. However, our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app. We’re working on bringing full functionality to the Home app as we want to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices. And while the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, users with previous versions of Nest cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams.

      If you need help with using the camera effectively in the Home app, please feel free to let us know here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hello there, KarateMaster913. We’re glad that your Nest Cam (battery) works smoothly. But we’re sorry to hear your experience with its battery life is less than ideal.

      The battery life depends on several factors including activity frequency, temperature, and the camera settings you select. You can extend the battery life of your camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Check this link for tips on how to save the battery: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10901611

      If the battery still drains quickly after making adjustments with the camera settings, we encourage you to visit us here for further guidance and assistance: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Great features and video quality. Only quirk was that you cannot use Nest app anymore - only the Google Home app On another migration, we could not use any iOS devices to setup existing t-stats ONLY way to setup was using a Google phone

      Hi Home, thanks for posting your experience. We apologize if you’re unable to add your Nest Cam (battery) in the Nest app.

      The new Nest Cam (battery) is exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience. Our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all of your favorite Nest and other smart home devices, as well as Google Assistant. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Users with older cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Cams. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras can be set up and controlled in one place.

      Your feedback is important to us as it will greatly help us understand our customers’ needs. If you have any questions or concerns, you can always reach out to our support team. We’d be more than happy to help here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Love my new cameras. Got the refurbished ones and even with the current Black Friday deal on the new one I saved $30 each. Ordered one and loved it so I bought three more to complete the perimeter of my home. Even have 3 plugged in for full time viewing access.

    It works and does what you expect it to do. If you have bought into the Google ecosystem, then this is a great camera. I will say, they are over priced. However they work. All the time, every time. Unlike our cheaper other brand that sometimes won’t connect. Battery life, charged once in a month, still showing 2 months of battery life. MMV there, but at least for us, battery life between charges isn’t a concern.
