      Hey there, thanks for leaving feedback about the Nest Thermostat, and it’s unfortunate to hear that you can’t adjust it while you're away from your house.

      Once you add the thermostat to the Google Home app, you can easily control it using the app even when you’re not at home as long as your thermostat and Home app (phone or tablet) are both online. If your thermostat doesn't appear in the app, make sure you've added it to your account and fully set it up. If your thermostat is offline in the Home app, we suggest tying some troubleshooting steps here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9243422

      If additional assistance is needed, our dedicated team is always ready to provide you with services and support here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Good product, works when installed correctly. Programming this device is not as user-friendly as you would think. Directions are not straightforward and difficult to understand. Software needs significant overhaul. They should get people who are not programmers to actually lay out the user interface.

    This thermostat is great except for you can't control it with your google device. You have to control it through the app on your phone. Also, this device does not have the "lock" feature. So we have upgraded.

    Although I never had any problems with electronics, but setting up this device is a little hard, installed it myself and it was running good to discover that it only blows hot air, so had to bring a tech to check the wiring.
