    A nice upgrade to the Nest family. Wish I could be used in the nest app but it only is shown in the google home app. No big deal but it's still a great camera. This does need to be hard wired so be prepared for that.

    We bought this for the back of our garage and had it installed by a contracted out company who was an excellent installer and did a perfect job!! (Mendez) It adds so much light and the camera is added security! Great light and camera!

    I love the sensors on this device. It lights up the entire front of the house when it detects anything and it helps alot at night when it's dark.

    Much better than my old Ring floodlights. Not sure why people insist on 4K, but its resolution and quality is just fine in my opinion-especially with the 24/7 video recording. I use Starling, so it works well with Homekit.

    Beware that after the free trials - if you don’t buy monthly plan - this is basically just a motion sensor light and a camera that will only show the live feed. It stores nothing, and they disable every feather of the camera including the zone you want covered with notifications. Of course, this happens right when the item cannot be returned. This is nothing but a ploy to force u to have the monthly coverage. I would never recommend any security feature from google.

      Hi MikeD, thanks for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the Google Home app didn't quite meet your expectations as the main software to manage Nest Cam with Floodlight.

      We understand that long time Nest users, like you, enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. 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. The new Nest Cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with other Google Nest speakers and displays. 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'd be happy to help you with your support needs. You´re always welcome to contact our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    My very 1st 3 stars, would give ur 2 stars but I am feeling generous. I bought it thinking I could use it with the Nest app, it’s way better than the Google app, and it doesn’t work with it. I had already installed it so I kept it. The light could not turn off after a couple of months of use so I had to reset the connection. Google app sucks when it comes to ease of use. Sadly is the only way you can use the camera

      Hi Jalbert, thanks for posting your feedback. We regret to hear about your disappointment about not being able 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.

      For further assistance, you can reach out to our support team anytime. We’d be more than happy to help you here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    I can’t rate since I bought two on line and after the electrician put it up it worked for two days then one light just went out. Had to take it down and return it for another. The back still okay.

    I have this connected to power and the camera frequently is "unavailable" so it doesn't record like it should. The floodlights always come on as needed/wanted but not the camera. It also sucks that you have to use Google Home App rather than the Nest App because I have other cameras that use Nest. It is a much better app. I am very disappointed in this purchase.

      Hi SusanS, thanks for your feedback. We´re sorry to hear about your disappointment with the connectivity issue and the move to the Google Home app for Nest Cam with Floodlight.

      If you're experiencing spotty connection or weak signal, we recommend checking your Wi-Fi network to see if your bandwidth is congested. This may happen if you have too many devices connected on the same bandwidth or if your network package is not enough to handle the data traffic on the network. Removing other connected devices to your Wi-Fi may relieve network congestion. If the issue persists, we recommend performing a factory reset on your camera. If you have a Nest Aware subscription, make sure to save any important clips before performing a factory reset. Then pair it back to your Nest app. Check this link to learn how to perform a factory reset on your Nest camera: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9252162

      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. Here are some 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.
