The camera is pretty good. Wish the resolution was a bit better. I have a Nest Hello Doorbell that seems to have better camera.

It really captures images day and night. It is fair to say it makes us feel safer.
Hi Jackie, thanks for taking the time to write this review about the Nets Cam (battery). We’re glad that you find the camera great and easy to use, but are sorry to hear that the field of view and the camera integration with the Home app are below your preference.
Nest Cam (battery) has a 130° diagonal field of view. To get the camera view you want, you have to adjust the camera’s position by hand. Use the Home app to check the camera’s view so you can adjust the position from the mounting plate if you need to. Also, the new Nest cameras and doorbell are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with your speakers and displays. A Nest Aware subscription applies to all of your cameras, speakers, and displays in the same home structure. And you can view both your old and new Nest Cams together in the Home app. We request for your patience as we’re working on a seamless solution to create a better user experience. Meanwhile, we suggest having the latest version of the Google Home app that may improve camera playback controls to make it easier to play, pause, and navigate between events from the camera history view for cameras set up in the Google Home app.
We’re always here to help improve your experience. Let us know if you have other concerns about the performance and functionality of the Nest camera by contacting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Good outdoor camera. Extremely easy to install. Would have been a better review if also worked with Nest app besides the Google home app.

Hi BarryH, we truly appreciate your feedback and concerns about the Nest Cam (battery). There are some compute limitations on some versions of Chromecast that do not allow us to support this yet, but we’re aiming to add support as soon as possible as the team continuously evaluates additional features. While streaming your camera on the TV isn’t available yet, you can stream it using a compatible smart display, and here’s how: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/7529598

Google changed this product and it stinks now. It doesn’t go through the Nest app anymore. You have to use the Google Home app and the phone gets very hot with that running in the background my personal opinion is that Google will probably be selling it off.

Hi there, Mmm4. Thanks for leaving feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience with using the Google Home app for your Nest Cam (battery) is less than ideal. Our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell along with other smart home devices in the Home app. Although the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, users like you with previous versions of Nest cameras can view their camera feeds in the Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams. 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. A single place to set up, manage, automate, and control your home, including devices from other brands.
Meanwhile, we recommend trying the steps below that can clear Home app issues: - Make sure you’re using the most current version of the Home app on your phone or tablet. - Make sure that your phone is up to date, with the correct Date & Time settings. - Confirm that the Home app has permissions to use your phone's location. - Close other apps running in the background. - Restart your phone.

So far works great. Easy to mount and connect. The face recognition get a little iffy if you won’t it in a higher position but other than that works great.

I have been very pleased with this Security camera. I am using it on my patio and it works very well. I recommend it to anyone looking for a wireless camera for outside.
