    These things are nice. I leave them plugged in so I can record 24/7 and don’t have to worry about charging the battery. It feels well made and I have not had any issues with them. Set up with easy. Mounting was easy. No issues. No complaints.

    Could be better. I hate using the home app because it totally sucks and with these you have to use the home app.

      Hi ThatGuyD, thanks for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you didn't quite like the Google Home app for Nest Cam (Battery).

      We understand that you have enjoyed using the Nest app with your Nest cameras. 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. Here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with your Nest Cam (Battery):
      - Automatic security protections, such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup.
      - Your Google Nest devices and services will work together. For example, if you have a Nest Cam and a Nest Hub, just say, ""Hey Google, show me the backyard camera” to cast your camera stream to your display without any additional setup.
      - One account to sign in to both the Nest and Google Home apps.
      - Your homes, and home members will be aligned across the Nest and Google Home apps.

      If you´re willing to try, you may set up your Nest cameras to the Google Home app. Here´s a guide that you can follow to set up your Nest cameras on the Google Home app: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532

      For any other support needs you may have, please consider contacting our support team. We'd be happy to entertain you and answer any questions you may have by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi there, Mehrdad. We appreciate the review you shared about the recording feature of the Nes Cam (battery). Our goal is to give users more options. The Nest Cam (battery) comes with 3 hours of event video history, and you can stream live video for free in the Google Home app. With event video history, we wanted our products to help our customers understand what’s going on at home easily and highlight the important activity for you. We offer 24/7 video history on wired Nest Cams with a Nest Aware Plus subscription for people who want to see everything that happens at home. We continue to invest in the use of both technologies

      If there’s anything we can help you with, or for any concerns about the camera, feel free to let us know here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi saugatuck, we appreciate you for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Cam (battery).

Please note that the power adapter included with the Nest Cam (battery) is not weatherproof and not intended for outdoor use and you can use a compatible weatherproof cable.

    great little cameras so far. get funky in cold weather. Vulnerable to Wifi manipulation, but you gotta be near by to do that. probably get a glimpse before such a sofisticated theif actually knocks your wifi offline.
