    Just like the new doorbell this thing is AMAZING! It's vision is strong and very sensitive to anything going on around it. Quality and connectivity are strong and quick!

    Sorry Google, you took out all the Nest Value out of this and forced us to use Google Home to utilize this camera. Nest was a better interface. I ended up buying Eufy by Anker. Much better price, twice the resolution and full 365 day battery? Oh, and their app is better than google home. Sorry, Ill be upfitting my house with at least 8 cams and discontinue to use the Google/Nest line of products. At this point, it's all in the name you got going for you.

      Hi Ruben, thanks for letting us know about your concerns with the Google Home app. It's really unfortunate to hear that you're planning to discontinue using your Nest Cam (Battery).

      We understand that long time Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app, however, our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app. 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. The new Nest Cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with other Google Nest speakers and displays.

      If you ever have a change of heart and reconsider using Nest Cam (Battery) again, we'll definitely do our best to provide you a better experience. Please do not hesitate to contact our support for any support needs you may have by visiting us using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Battery life is horrible, lasts maybe two weeks. Doesnt work in the older Nest app with my existing cameras. You can only access it in the Google Home app that has less features. I ended up returning it. In comparison i also use the Blink wireless cameras that use 4 AA and they last over a year before changing them out.

      Hi NCruz, we really appreciate your feedback about the Nest Cam (battery), and we’re sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations.

      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. 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. Also, your camera could have detected a lot of activities, as the battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select, which can be extended by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas.

      We understand that you returned your camera already, but if you’re willing to try the Nest camera some time again, we have our dedicated team of specialists always ready to provide you with services and assistance here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This is a third camera that needed to be replaced because the battery discharges even though it is continuously plugged in. Paid electricians to check outlets. All pointed to camera issues. Google was no help and equally save on internet that others experienced problems. Works now after getting a new camera. Not sure for how long. Would not get this camera brand again.

    Don't Work with NEST NATIVE APP

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this camera through my Nest Native App, Easy to install, but when trying to pair with my Native Nest App it won't connect instead it redirected me to Google Home App, I don't like Google Home App to cluttered, I already have other Nest products connected to my Native Nest App. This camera shouldn't be called NEST CAMERA if it doesn't work with Nest Native App. This is unprofessional business from Google. I returned the Camera.
