Good feature set, works well in all weather conditions. Wanted the ability to see back yard after someone stole a bicycle, and bought a second camera for the front to see the front door. I wanted to be able to see who was at the door without having an annoying doorbell!

These are super easy to set up and mount quickly via magnets or the included hardware. The battery lasts for a long time and we only have to charge ours once a month or longer.

I just talked with Google Nest support and this 'Nest' camera does NOT work with the Nest app, only the Google home app. WORSE is that the old Nest cameras don't fully work in the Google home app (no video history). So the answer from support is using two separate apps to get alerts and video history. That is crazy. So don't buy unless you don't own any Nest products currently. And even then--the Google Home app is pretty bad/not easy to use. They should remove the name 'Nest' from the product and give warnings about this.
Hi Dudeman, we appreciate your feedback and thanks for sharing your insights about the Nest Cam (Battery). We understand how inconvenient it is to have two separate apps to control and manage your cameras.
The new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Home app, but you can view your old Nest Cams in the Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams. If you set up your camera or doorbell in the Home app, you can use the Home app to change its settings, and if you first set up your camera or doorbell in the Nest app, most of its settings will be in the Nest app, but you can also change some settings in the Home app. Camera settings that appear in both the Home app and Nest app (for example, turning the camera on or off) will look different. However, changing one of these settings in one app will be reflected in the other app.
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. In the meantime, if you have any concerns around the performance and features of the Nest Cam (Battery), let us know here and we’d be happy to help: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Not worth the investment

We regret investing in the Google ecosystem. The products are a dead end with almost incremental improvement or updates from Google. Functionality is limited to a few convenient use cases but lacks many key features with no options for expansion or to use the cameras outside of googles system. Very difficult to review or export footage and due to cloud aspect video is seldom available in real time when it can be important. I definitely would not depend on this stuff for security. We will be installing a real camera system
Hi there, JMT711. We appreciate your feedback. It's unfortunate to know that your experience with the Nest Cam (battery) has been less than ideal. We're sorry for any frustration or inconvenience it caused. Regarding the difficulty in reviewing and exporting footage, this has been noted. We're committed to addressing your concern though it's disheartening to hear that you're moving away from the Google Nest ecosystem, we respect your decision and appreciate your feedback. If you change your mind in the future and need help with your Google devices, we recommend reaching out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

I bought these after buying the Google doorbell camera. Because I had already setup the doorbell via Google app, adding these were simple. I also bought the extra long outdoor cables. No fault alerts after using for 6 months. No charging needed. working even during power outage.

I absolutely love these cameras! We have them in the house to watch the Nanny with our baby and love it! We can see clearly, the motion sensors are on point and the app is easy to use. You will love it too!

Better than the old gen. I like that these are wireless and you can wire it for continuous recording. Pretty crazy that Ring doesn’t have continuous recording, that’s why I go with Nest.

Since buying camera im pretty impressed how simple it was to install. Not much to it drill 2 holes attach mount and camera hooks via magnet ! Battery life varies based upon settings so adjust as needed. Everything seems great and intergration with google app is great. Definately will purchase 2 more
