    Very disappointed with the performance of this camera!!! Set up event zones multiple times per instructions and they would never work correctly. Camera would detect car or person going away from camera but never coming towards camera. Camera now has went offline and will not reconnect with wi fi and seems unresponsive even with full charge. Camera is only a month old

    I really wanted to get this camera working since i already own other google devices in my home but the Google Home app just would not detected this camera, therefore could not get to use this camera. After a few hours of wasting my day fiddling with it, I ended up returning this camera. This will give me a chance to check out all the other brands.

    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.
