    I have been using this for over 6 months, it was pretty easy to install and hook up to the Google Home app. The biggest issue is when i want to view it live, it has issues allowing me to watch it in real time. It have to keep retrying multiple times which i am near an access point. It’l gets annoying after awhile. Just be aware.

    Could've been 5 stars only due to the fact it uses a different instead of nest app and requires a power cord for constant 247 recording.

      Hello, Yiazmat. Thanks for sharing your feedback and for giving us a good rating on the Nest Cam (battery). We hear your concerns about the app integration and with the 24/7 recording feature.

      We’re aware that longtime Nest users like you enjoy viewing the camera videos using the Nest app or web app. 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. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app.

      To optimize battery life, it offers event video history and will detect and capture important activity at your door, so you can focus on the details that need your attention. Our goal is to give users more choice. With event video history, we wanted our products to help our customers, like you, to understand what’s going on at home easily and highlight the important activity for you. We still offer 24/7 video history on wired Nest cameras/doorbells with a Nest Aware Plus subscription if you choose to connect your Nest Cam (battery) to a power cable (sold separately). Visit this support link to learn more about pricing, and what you can get with a Nest Aware subscription: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9233159

      Our dedicated team is always here for your support needs. Simply visit us at the following link and we’d be happy to help: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    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.

      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).

      Our support team would be happy to help you with your support concerns by reaching out to us here:  https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      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. This link might be helpful: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10901611

      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.

      If more help is required, feel free to contact us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    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.
