Its functions are slow and the internet connection is lost quickly.
Hey there, JonathanS. We’re sorry you're running into connectivity problems with the Nest Cam (Battery) — we totally understand your frustration. Here are some troubleshooting steps to get your device running smoothly:
1. Check your camera’s distance to the router: Your camera may be out of range or it may be too close to the router. 2. Restart your camera: When you restart your camera, it will refresh its connection. Instructions depend on what kind of device you have. 3. Restart your router: When you restart your router and modem, it will reset your internet connection. 4. Check the settings on your Wi-Fi router or access point: In some cases, settings on your router or access point could cause a problem with the connection. High firewall security or parental controls can block new devices from connecting to your Wi-FI network

Easy setup. Packaged well with everything included to mount.
These can be charger and work fine but have more options for recording and historical playback if connected to power.

Picture is great but you can only sync with the Home app and NOT the Nest which i prefer for camera viewing. Does NOT do 24/7 recording.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hi JustMe, thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the change to the Google Home app for Nest Cam (Battery).
We wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. Here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with Nest Thermostat: - Automatic security protections such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup. - One account to sign into both the Nest and Google Home apps. - Your homes and home members will be aligned across the Nest and Google Home apps.
Nest Cam (battery) can support up to 10 days of continuous video recording (CVR) and 24/7 video history if hardwired to power and subscribed to Nest Aware Plus ($12 a month for all of your cameras, speakers, and displays on the same home structure).

Do not work as advertised. They will not connect unless plugged in to power. Installed wifi extender, and that didn't help. As soon as I plugged it in, works great. Great camera but not wireless as advertised.

Awesome product. Actually enjoyed the fact it’s battery operated vs wired. Easily installed. Highly recommend
Hello there, Josh. We appreciate the feedback you shared, and we’re glad that you find the Nest Cam (battery) great. It’s unfortunate to hear about your experience with its battery life.
Your camera could be detecting a lot of activities, as the battery life depends on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. Try to adjust the settings like the video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas so you can extend its battery life.

In addition, you can plug your camera to a power outlet with the included power adapter for continuous power. The included power adapter is not weatherproof and not intended for outdoor use. We suggest using a compatible weatherproof cable (sold separately). Contact your retailer for inquiries.
