    We have own nests for a while now. We had it in our previous home (2nd generation) and the home before (1st generation). We just moved into our new home, bought the nest (4th generation), had it installed and noticed that the fan continued to run while not cooling the home down. We had professionals come out to figure out what was wrong. They ended up bypassing the thermostat to see that the ac was running correctly, but issue was the actual thermostat. We have a newer York ac and were told that this nest generation has been having issues since they came out. Please avoid! We eneded up replacing it with the Honeywell smart thermostat.

    Nest Gen 4 Doesn't Work with the Nest App

    This Nest Gen 4 doesn't work with the Nest app. A big miss by Google. I wish I had known that before I bought it. You have to use the Google Home app instead. I have several Nest Gen 3 thermostats, all on the Nest app. So faced with having to switch apps, I bought and installed an ecobee Premium to compare. The ecobee wins over the Nest thermostats hands-down. The touch-screen interface is a big plus. The ecobee app is waaaaay better than the Google Home app. From my point of view this product is only as good as the Google Home app, which is far from great. I returned the Nest Gen 4 to Best Buy. I plan to switch my other Nests to ecobees
