    Was a little hesitant in first purchasing this unit. They had some reviews stating the light is not bright enough. i have mine set to 60-70% brightness, and have no concerns in my driveway. Camera is pretty good.

    Build well and installation was straight forward. The quality of the camera is also good. However, the google home app is very limited and it is disappointing this cannot be used in the Nest app or any other camera software.

    Great addition to my home security, easy to install as I am an electrician, ran new power to put it exactly where I needed it. Getting it on the network took some trial an error and once I factory reset the camera after its fresh install it connected.

    Very pleased with this camera and floodlights. Replaced a current floodlight, and installation was a breeze. My biggest frustration was the inability to use the Neat app with my other best cameras. You have to use the Google Home app (otherwise it would have been 5 stars!)

      Hi Myrddincox, thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We´re sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with the move to the Google Home app for Nest Cam with Floodlight.

      We wanted to make the Google Home app the one place where you can control all your favorite 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 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.

      If you already have some Nest cameras installed in your home on the Nest app, you may transfer them to the Google Home app. Here´s a guide that you can follow: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532

      We'd like to answer any questions you may have and walk you through the feature for Nest Cam with Floodlight using the Google Home app. We´ll definitely do our best to provide you with a better experience.

      Hi there, G4mingSolo. We’re glad that you like the Nest Cam with floodlight, but we’re sorry to hear of your issue with its connectivity.

      A range issue or wireless interference can affect the overall performance of your camera. The device may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away from your router. You may also check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the camera and your router as these items could block the connection. For more tips, read Troubleshooting Wireless Interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

    The lights are good. work well. No issues so far. The color could have been different since it does not gel with the garage lights. But no complaints otherwise. Works well and keeps us safe and secure.

    I was very pleased with the unboxing and ease of installation! It was easy to replace my standard floodlight with this and the Google Home integration works well. As others have noted, I really wish it worked with the Nest app, but I can use everything on the Home app just the same, so I’m not really docking it for that reason.

    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.
