    The actual camera hardware seems to be very good, and installation was pretty easy. I have about 8 nest cameras, and unfortunately 3 of them are newer like this one and thus you have to use the Google home app with them. And that app is just atrocious with the camera integration. Notifications literally come in a day later, you cannot easily review your recorded feed. For example, want to look at what happened 5 minutes ago? Well you have to go to the recorded history, which means yesterday, and then scroll on your phone an entire day ahead, which either takes forever or you got the wrong area on your phone screen an exit by accident. Just a shame Google has totally ruined their cameras with this app. The old nest app is far and away better in all aspects. Don't buy these cameras unless they fix the app or let you use the nest app again.

      Hi there, Irb123! We appreciate your feedback and continued support of our Google Nest products. It's great to hear that you're liking the hardware features of Nest Cam with Floodlight and that you had an easy time installing it. However, we're sorry if the Google Home app fell short of meeting your expectations. We understand that you have enjoyed the features of the Nest app for a long time. But 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. Furthermore, here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with your Nest Cam with Floodlight:
      - 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 value your feedback and we'll certainly make sure to pass along the information that you provided us to the right team. We'll certainly look into improving our product features and we're hoping you will keep an eye on our blog site for future announcements on new products and features here: https://blog.google/

      Furthermore, we'd like to assist you with any other support concerns you may be having. Our support team would be happy to entertain any questions you have when you visit us at this Google Nest help center link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi TimS, we´re glad you liked Nest Cam with Floodlight. We do apologize to hear about your disappointment with the Google Home app.

      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 with Floodlight:
      - 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

    The camera works great, but the video isn’t viewable on the Nest app with the rest of my Nestcams. You can only view it on the Google Home app. The other problem is that there is no way to program the lights on a timer or dusk to dawn option.

      Hi Roman, thanks for posting your feedback. We apologize if you’re unable to use the Nest app for your Nest Cam with floodlight.

      The new Nest Cam with floodlight 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.

      We value your feedback as we’re always working to understand our customers’ needs. If you have questions you want us to answer, feel free contacting our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    The Floodlight is a great feature that I'm very happy Google finally offers with its cameras. I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase. It would be great if it also offered 4K. However, surprisingly, the difference isn't too noticeable.

    Great buy, since we already have 4 Nest cam outdoor models. But Needs seemless support between Nest & google home app. Too much fragmentation in Google ecosystem.

      Hi there, BBPltnmMbr. Thanks for sharing your experience with the Nest Cam with Floodlight. We're thrilled to hear that it's been a great addition to your existing Nest Cam outdoor models. We appreciate you choosing the Nest Cam with Floodlight to expand your smart home security. We completely understand your concerns about the separate apps for Nest and Google Home.

    This is a must have if you need a floodlight or outdoor cam. The pic quality is outstanding and you can talk through it. You will need to sign up for a subscription but the peace of mind is worth it.

    Intergrates and works as expected with Google Home app, etc. Image is clear enough. Soind is hit or miss. Minus 1 star as I can't find a way to set a daily schedule for the floodlight.

    Fully hooked into the Google Home / Nest ecosystem. I mounted this at the top of my house overlooking the backyard. Pretty good picture quality but it appears my Nest Hello doorbell has a bed picture quality. Overall solid but a bit pricey

    Working great once I set it up. Not a fan of the Nest Google transition though. All my other cameras are on the Nest app and this one is on Google Home. They need to be more integrated on one app.

      Hello Terrifly, thanks for the feedback, and we’re glad to hear that Nest Cam with Floodlight is working great. We understand that having the ability to view and control your camera in the Nest app could be convenient for you. However, our priority is to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices. While the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, users with previous versions of Nest cameras, like you, can view your camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams.

      We hope you’re making the most out of its feature, and if you come across any concerns about the Nest cameras, please reach out to our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
