Hey there, JROCK. Thanks for the feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the Nest Cam (battery). We’ll share your feedback with the right team to work on improving our products.

Meanwhile, regardless of how many phones you want to use, for as long as you’re signed in to your Google Home app, all your phones can access, view, and control your Google Nest products. On the other hand, you can add or invite the people you trust to become home members and share access to your home. Each person (maximum of 6) will be able to sign in with their own account and use the Home app on their phone to view and use the Google Nest products in your home. Remind them also to sign up for 2-step verification. Do not share your personal credentials with anyone, even family members. Sharing an account email and password is not only unsecure, it can cause your Google Nest products to not switch their behavior as normally expected. Depending on the level of shared access you choose, people you invite can add, remove, and control products in the Home app. Learn more using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9155535

You’ll receive notifications as long as your phones are signed in to the app. You can choose to receive notifications for everything your camera detects, or choose notifications for only certain types of activity. If you’ve turned on critical alerts, you should receive some push notifications even when your phone is set to Do Not Disturb. You can create Activity Zones to cover areas in your camera’s view that you care about, and choose the type of motion you want to be notified of for each zone. Here’s more information about notification settings you can change for your camera: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9210305
