Nice and Secure!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is nice and crisp with zoom capabilities. It also is capable of seeing in low light enviornments. It learns faces and notifies you when they are spotted. Very nice addition to my security system!

Don't Buy, Doesn't Work With Nest App
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't know what Google is thinking trying to force people to use their trash Goole Home app. The Nest app has been the perfect app for my Nest devices for years. I have returned both this camera pack as well as the new doorbell due to lack on integration with the Nest app and problems with battery life on these new products. Decided to go with eufy instead as they have everything I need, and excellent battery life on all products. I would NOT recommend these new Google products to anyonep.

Posted .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

Posted .Hi saugatuck, we appreciate you for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Cam (battery). You can use the Nest Cam weatherproof cables (sold separately) which are available in 5m and 10m if you want to plug your camera into an outlet for continuous power. 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.
We're taking your feedback seriously to work on improving our products and services. And if you need help with any concerns about your camera’s performance and features, you can simply visit us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Not as expected
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The color and sound are good. However it does not have a large range of motion so we could not see our entire yard. It kept going into night mode during the day.

Posted .Hi there, BishalS. Thanks for the feedback you shared about the Nest Cam (indoor, wired). We appreciate that you find the device good, but we’re sorry to hear the video quality is below your preference.
You can adjust the video quality settings so you can choose how much your internet connection gets used by the Nest camera to stream live video. The higher quality setting is, the more bandwidth is used. But no matter which option you pick, both your camera and the app will automatically adjust its resolution to work with the available bandwidth. Here’s how:
- Open the Home app.
- Touch and hold your device's tile.
- At the top right, tap Settings.
- Choose Video.
- Under “Video quality,” choose Max or High
