Awesome product! Well definitely use google products for home security going forward.

I would recommend this to a friendNest battery camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got the Nest battery camera; would it be a lot simpler to have the new cameras appear in the NEST APP until such time that the HOME APP is improved? And to be honest we all know that is a minimum of 6+ months and even then, not all the functions will get migrated. I'm just going on the Google's track record here. 1 step forward 4 steps back seems to be their way. This is so disrespectful to the current customer base. These new cams are so different because of the Google HOME app that they should have never had the NEST name connected to them. ... just my opinion. Shame on you Google. You have more resources than just about any company, and this is what you release?

Posted .Hi there Haywood, thanks for trying the new Nest Cam (Battery). We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the move to the Google Home app, and with any difficulty you may be having, migrating to a Google account.
We wanted to make the Google Home app the one place where you can control all your favorite Google Nest devices 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 into both the Nest and Google Home apps.
- Your homes and home members will be aligned across the Nest and Google Home apps.
- You may set up your Nest cameras to the Google Home app. Check out this help article: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532
We'd like to help you further with the issue. Please reach out to our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras are awesome. However if you put them in a high traffic area the battery life decreases substantially.
I would recommend this to a friendEasy mounting and great video.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Read lots of commentary about battery life. Battery life is fine… been using them for weeks and both batteries are still at 70% or better. Video quality and face recognition are excellent.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cameras just sit there, cars in and out of garages, never a shot of them. the thing that is most noticeable is the movement of trees along driveway, Unless you are standing right under camera you will get an image. Very disappointed, they are worthless. Dogs always in backyard, never see them. Need a way to rectify this. Is there any support from Google.

Great...with small caveat
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy setup and work very well. Tried using it with the Wasserstein solar panel (high output version) and that worked well in a very high traffic commercial parking lot. After about a 1.5 weeks I got a notification that my battery had dropped to about 70%. Pretty good as the panel was in a shaded area with no direct sunlight. Ultimately I choose to get the power cable so I could have continuous recording as that is the only way to have all video instead of just clips of activity.

I would recommend this to a friendNo color video at night, and "live view" is iffy
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very disappointed. I have 1GB Wi-Fi speed. I bought this camera a few days ago. I am very disappointed. It is problematic trying to get a live view once battery percentage drops below 70. Also, at night, the video feed is in BLACK AND WHITE, even though there is a bright porch light somefour feet away!!! (What is up with that?) I have a Ring Doorbell located three feeet away; it has no problem providing clear colr video. I am searching for a different camera, as I will probably retun this pathetic device.

Posted .Hi trosoft, thanks for posting your feedback about your experience with using the Nest Cam (battery).

We understand your decision to return, but if you’re willing to give us a chance to help, you may visit us anytime at the Google Nest Help page for assistance and guidance: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Great, but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Firstly, let me say that this device has lots of pros. The ability to have a battery powered security camera which I can install anywhere is very nice. Some folks have complained about the video resolution but I personally find it adequate. HOWEVER, there are a few limitations that are infuriating. The fact that this is a Google NEST camera but doesn't allow you to use the NEST app is very annoying. Instead, you are forced to use Google's clunky and half-baked "home" app which is slow, buggy, and allows for limited customization. Secondly, there is a subscription fee if you want this camera to be useful at all, which I really wouldn't mind, except that it is shockingly overpriced.
