      Hi MikeJRZ, thanks for posting a review. We apologize if you’re unable to connect your Nest Cam (Battery) in your Nest App.

      The 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

    Magnetic base is a game changer! Ive been using it inside and just move it from room to room by attaching the base to the air return for the HVAC. Battery life is pretty good too

    Very good camera and very quick to react to motion. Google does limit it's capibilities until you subscribe to their service. But the camera does work very well.

      Hi DaveS, thanks for the review that you provided about the Nest Cam (Battery). Nest has long been focused on delivering quality products to our customers. We’re also focused on giving our customers value for the price, including three hours of event history right out of the box for the first time ever. On-device processing also gives our customers smart alerts and Activity Zones, which historically have required a subscription. There's no fee to stream full resolution live video and receive basic notifications, as long as your camera is connected to the internet. However, you’ll need a Nest Aware subscription to receive full and extra features. Check what you can get with the Nest Aware subscription here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9233159

      If there’s anything we can help you around the performance and functionality, including using the Nest camera effectively, please don’t hesitate to let us know anytime at: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    It doesn't send notifications even I walk on drive way, I have installed it wireless so not sure if this even works. May be I need to hard wire it to use the full benefits.
