Posted .Hi Bigshell, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry if you're having issues with the battery life with your Nest Cam (Battery).
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)
If you're willing to try, we recommend checking the frequency of events (per day) that you get with your Nest Cam (Battery). If the short battery life isn't related to the frequency of events, then we may need to have a closer look at your Nest Cam (Battery) and understand what may be causing it.

Terrible product
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t get this product because it needs to be charged often so if it’s high you will need a ladder to get it off charge it then put it back. Additionally this product only comes with one charger for 3 cameras. Terrible product

Posted .Hey there, Lyradi. We’re sorry to hear you’re having to charge the Nest Cam (Battery) so often. The battery life on the Nest doorbell (battery) will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and selected camera settings. On average here’s how long the battery will last on a single charge:
Busy - About 1 month battery life (about 25 - 30 recorded events per day)
Typical - About 2.5 months battery life (about 13 - 16 recorded events per day)
Quiet - About 6 months battery life (about 2 - 5 recorded events per day)
Here’s a few tips to conserve battery:
1. Optimize its video quality.
2. Shorten the length of time for which events are recorded.
3. Take longer to begin recording between events.

I would recommend this to a friendLove these cameras!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased one and loved it so I ended up purchasing a double set. We are considering purchasing another set. We didn't purchase the service to continously record but we do get notified for any movement and we can save the recording. It only keeps 3 hrs then deletes.

Don't Buy, Doesn't Work With Nest App
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't know what Google is thinking trying to force people to use their trash Goole Home app. The Nest app has been the perfect app for my Nest devices for years. I have returned both this camera pack as well as the new doorbell due to lack on integration with the Nest app and problems with battery life on these new products. Decided to go with eufy instead as they have everything I need, and excellent battery life on all products. I would NOT recommend these new Google products to anyonep.

Posted .Hi there, BishalS. Thanks for the feedback you shared about the Nest Cam (indoor, wired). We appreciate that you find the device good, but we’re sorry to hear the video quality is below your preference.
You can adjust the video quality settings so you can choose how much your internet connection gets used by the Nest camera to stream live video. The higher quality setting is, the more bandwidth is used. But no matter which option you pick, both your camera and the app will automatically adjust its resolution to work with the available bandwidth. Here’s how:
- Open the Home app.
- Touch and hold your device's tile.
- At the top right, tap Settings.
- Choose Video.
- Under “Video quality,” choose Max or High
