Hi Snookered, thanks for posting a review on Nest Cam (battery), and we’re sorry to hear about your poor experience with its connectivity despite having a strong signal.

Sometimes, a range issue or wireless interference can cause your Nest camera to disconnect from your Wi-Fi. Try moving your camera a bit closer to your router. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. You may also check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the camera and your router as these items could block the connection. For more help, read Troubleshooting wireless interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

If the connectivity issue persists, we’d like to check whether this is caused by the camera or other environmental factors. Feel free to find us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Hi LeMode, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that Nest Cam (Battery) didn’t eet your needts.

Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that 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. Here are some typical scenarios:
- Busy - About 1.5 months battery life (about 20 - 25 recorded events per day)
- Typical - About 3 months battery life (about 9 - 12 recorded events per day)
- Quiet - About 7 months battery life (about 2 - 4 recorded events per day)

Hi Busakap, thanks for letting us know about the issue. We´re sorry to hear that the video feed from your Nest Cam (Battery) has been choppy, and about the difficulty with adding a new device.

The issue is most likely related to a connectivity issue with your network. We recommend checking if your Nest Cam (Battery) might be getting a weak Wi-Fi signal from your router. Placing your Nest Cam (Battery) in a location where you get better signal reception might be helpful in improving it. The issue may also be related to possible congestion in your network. Removing some of your connected devices to free up some bandwidth space, and to test if the issue will persist. If you verify the presence congestion, we recommend contacting your Internet service provider and consider upgrading your bandwidth.

We'd like to know further about your difficulty in adding new devices to the Google Home app. If you need further help, we'd be happy to help troubleshoot the issue further and even walk you through the setup process for your Google Nest devices and Nest Cam (Battery).
