Customer Ratings & Reviews

Hi there bosmo, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We apologize if the new Nest Cam (Battery) isn’t available in the Nest app.

Our priority is giving our customers choice and making devices for every home, and we’re continuing to support the Nest App. New Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience. Users with older cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and 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. Also, using the Google Home app provides you with a lot of benefits including access to Google's trusted security platform and access to other Google tools and with seamless integration with other Google devices.

We value your feedback as we are always working to improve our products and services. If you need assistance, our dedicated team is always here to help. Feel free to contact us anytime using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices.

Hi Nico, thanks for posting a review to let us know about your Nest Cam (Battery) and with the Google Home app. We’re sorry to learn that you're experiencing some difficulties with the app, and that you can’t see the cameras on your computer. The new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Home app, but you can view both your old and new Nest Cams together in the Home app. We’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy having the option to view their Nest camera feeds from the web, and we are working on adding this experience. However, our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app. Our team is also working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras and previous Nest devices can be set up and can have full control in one app.

If you need any assistance about your Nest Cam, we’d be happy to help and don’t hesitate to visit us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Hi JDIv, thanks for the feedback you provided about the Nest Cam (battery). We appreciate you for being heavily invested with Google Nest cameras, we’re glad that you like them. We understand that having the ability to save clips outside from the events detected like your previous cameras can be ideal for you, and we’d be happy to share this with the right team for future improvements. Meanwhile, you might want to adjust the camera settings as the maximum clip length setting for your camera or doorbell will affect how long video clips can be.

Hello there, RoyceC. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about the Google Nest devices. We’re continuing to support the Nest app and the Nest cameras, as well as to deliver critical security updates and software fixes and owners like you shouldn’t notice any difference with your service. Google commits to bring users the same feature and software support you’ve always had. However, we made the difficult decision to stop support for Nest Secure and Dropcam starting April 8, 2024.

Hi there grapp, thanks for letting us know about the issue. It's unfortunate that your designated Activity Zones stopped working, and we're sorry for any frustrating experience this may have caused you.

Here are some recommended steps you can try out with the issue:
- Check the size of your Activity Zone. A big Activity Zone captures more activity. If your zone is too large, objects that don’t seem in the zone can trigger an in-zone recording or notification. In general, the smaller and more precise the Activity Zone, the more accurate your camera’s alerts should be.
- Avoid overlapping Activity Zones. If you overlap 2 or more Activity Zones, you only receive a notification for the Activity Zone where the activity first occurred. If the activity actually happened in 2 or more Activity Zones at the same time, you only get a notification for one of the Activity Zones.

If the issue seems to persist even after trying out the steps we shared with you, then we may need to have a closer look at the issue and see how we can help you best. Please do not hesitate to contact us here: : https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
