    I had this camera right by my current security camera and it failed to detect half of the events. A large truck would drive through taking up the entire screen and it wouldn’t even detect that. I talked to Google and they helped reset camera but that didn’t help. I have returned the product. The app is terrible!

    I own all google products and never had a problem with any of them till i bought these. All three refuse to connect to the wifi. Reset and tried multiple times. Called google and that was useless. Called starlink and that was useless. I have done everything that was suggested while trying to research and find a solution with no luck. Supoosed to be an easy setup and its been anything but such.

      Hey there, Danatpap. Sorry to hear you’re running into connection issues while setting up your Nest Cam (Battery). Here’s some troubleshooting tips to get your device connected:

      1. Make sure you have the latest version of the Google Home app or Nest app to get the latest features and bug fixes.
      2. Your main router sometimes has a better connection than your network extenders. Also, if your camera tries to connect to an incompatible extender, it can experience connection issues.
      3. Restart your router, modem, and any Wi-Fi range extenders or repeaters that you have.

      For more tips, here’s a link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9240048

      Don’t hesitate to contact us any time: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi JMatty, it’s great to have your feedback on Nest Cam (battery) and we’re glad that the battery life and the image quality are ideal for you. We understand that longtime 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’re working on bringing full functionality to the Home app as we want to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices.

      If you need help with using the camera effectively in the Home app, please feel free to let us know here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
