Easy to set up
|Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Takes unflattering photos of faces unrecognized. Knows the difference between a car driving by, or people. It can also hear sounds like a smoke detector, and recognizes what it is. Very smart google.

It's fine, but subscription services are blah
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The weakest part of this is the need to subscribe to a service for more than a day's worth of history, A local storage option would be nice. But it integrates well with all my other google stuff, the video quality is decent, and is easy to setup.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.With transitioning over from alexa things to the google cameras they made it easy.

The best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best security camera out there on the market. It let you set up different zones to monitor for different things. And it can distinguish between little baby vs dogs. And it won’t notify again for the same person unless the time is far apart.

Good value for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to upgrade with the 2nd gen indoor camera was released. Better all around at a cheaper price. Wish this camera came with a battery back-up as the new outdoor camera. Communication is a little laggy sometimes but overall you can hear and be heard.

Posted .Hi Mike, we´re glad you liked Nest Cam (Indoor,Wired). We´re sorry to hear about the laggy communication issue you are experiencing.
Laggy issues may be related to the any of the following reasons below:
- Possible congestion of your network. Removing some of your connected devices may free up some bandwidth space and enable you to test if the issue will happen again. Once you verify congestion, we recommend contacting your Internet service provider for a possible upgrade of your bandwidth connection.
- Interference caused by electrical appliances and thick walls in your home. Placing your Nest Cam much closer to your router, or in a location where it can get better signal reception may be helpful.
We value your feedback and we´ll make sure to pass along this information to the right team. If you encounter any further issue, please consider contacting our support team for further troubleshooting and isolation here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Posted .Hey there, BrianDC. Thanks for taking the time to share your review of the Nest Cam (indoor, wired). We're glad to hear that it is working well for you. However, we understand that you are not a fan of the night feature, as it can be difficult to see in low lighting. Night vision technology can vary between different security cameras and we understand the importance of clear visibility. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. If you find that the night feature of the camera is not meeting your expectations or requirements, we suggest that you explore the settings options available on the Nest Cam to see if there are any adjustments that can improve the night vision feature. You can try adjusting settings such as brightness, contrast, or exposure to see if it makes a difference in the visibility during low-light conditions. It is also worth checking for any available firmware updates for the camera, as these updates can sometimes improve performance and address known issues. If you're still not satisfied after a few tweaks, we would suggest you reach out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Very sleek, but could use more features
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up and works well with all my other Google home devices. There's no way to disable the led light so it can be kind of distracting as a baby monitor, but ultimately gets the job done

Posted .Hi Vookie, thanks for sharing a comparison of Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) and the older Nest camera models. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the move to the Google Home app for the newer generation of Nest cameras.
The Nest app has been a reliable app for our first generation of Nest cameras. However, we wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place where you can control all your favorite Nest devices and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. This change helps make the integration with our Google Nest devices easier, smoother and simpler for all our users. Here are some other benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with your Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired):
- 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.
We'd like to help improve your experience. Please consider contacting our support team for further assistance with your Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Terrible app
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Google Home app is terrible compared to the old Nest app. Plus I can't access the video on a browser on a PC. We're now into a year since release and there's no announced timeline to fix these issues.

Posted .Hi bkinnk, thanks for sharing your experience. We apologize if you’re unable to add the Nest Cam (indoor, wired) in the Nest App.
The new Nest Cam (indoor, wired) is exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience. 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. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Users with older cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Cams. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras can be set up and controlled in one place.
Your feedback is important to us as it will greatly help us in improving our products and services. If you need help with your Nest Cam (indoor, wired), you may reach out to our support team. We’d be more than happy to assist you here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
