    This camera works well without any issues thus far. I originally purchased the outdoor wireless camera but had problems before even installing it so I chose this and and have it aimed out the window. My goal was to have all cameras on one platform and Google was the easiest choice as we have the Nest doorbell.

    The pair of nest cameras that we received worked well, especially during a recent trip from home. They provide some peace of mind when hours away. We purchased two open box models, which came separately (?) but in decent shape.

    Great camera definition & sound. Perfect except having to use the google home app. We have two old legacy nest cams and they work fine with the old app. I wish google would integrate the features of the nest app to google home.

      Hi Joey, thanks for choosing our Google Nest products. We´re glad that you like the camera, sound quality of Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired).

      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 may need to have a closer look at the issue you are having with your posts on our Community channel, and see how we can provide you a better experience. Please reach out to our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This is a nice camera but if you're somebody that relies on the nest app rather than the Google home you're going to be disappointed. You would think it would be backwards compatible but it's not. Google is trying to force us into using Google home which is not as user friendly as the nest app.

      Hi Dakz, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We apologize if you’re unable to use your Nest app for your Nest Cam (indoor,wired).

      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 understand our customers’ needs. If you have any questions or concerns, you can always reach out to our support team. We’d be more than happy to help here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi Flyboy, we're glad to hear your feedback about Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired). We've taken note of your feedback and we'll make sure to pass this along to the right team. If you need to mount your Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) on a ceiling or overhang, or at an odd angle to get the view you want, you can adjust the video so that it's right side up. In many cases, you can simply turn or twist the camera. If that’s not possible, you can flip the video 180 degrees with the Home app. Alternatively, you can speak to our support team by simply reaching out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Works for what we need it to do. We have it installed in a vacation home and connected to the Google Home Hub. Lets me see what's going on inside the house. We don't have it connected to a "security system" or anything like that. But with the Google Home app I can see if anything is going on in the house. The picture is fine

    The camera quality is pretty good. It has issues with distinguishing when night mode should be activated. And when lights are on inside my home, it makes weird purple waves down the video stream. I also really dislike the google home app, it’s ridiculous that this camera cannot be added to my google nest app (where my doorbell camera and thermostats are). I don’t need anything amazing quality, so this camera is fine for me. If you want perfection, this isn’t the way to go. Google’s subscription costs are also outrageously high and going up apparently, so that’s also something to consider.

      Hey there, hm31. Thank you for sending in your review of Nest Cam (indoor, wired). We're sorry to hear that your experience with the device when activating night mode has been less than ideal. The new Nest cameras and doorbell are exclusive to the Google Home app, but you can view both your old and new Nest Cams together in the Google Home app.

      We appreciate your sentiments with using the Google Home app and we've taken note of it. If you have additional questions or need more information about Nest Aware subscription, please don't hesitate to contact us on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
