    This was installed by geek squad. They set it up in my phone and I can control from there. It has started to lose Wi-Fi connection and the Wi-Fi is on in the home. Thats the only problem I have. So the geek squad will come back and show me the way to success like always.

      Hi Happy, thanks for sharing your views on Nest products. We're sorry to hear that you're experiencing a Wi-Fi connectivity issue with Nest Thermostat.

      Your Nest thermostat gets its power from your HVAC system’s wiring. There are cases where these wires can't deliver enough power to support the Nest thermostat's features, then they start draining the batteries and disconnect from your Wifi network. In such cases, installing a common(C) wire between your HVAC and Nest thermostats can resolve the battery drain problem.

      If the points we provide do not resolve the issue you informed us, then we may need to have a closer look to find out what may be causing it and work on improving your experience. We're ready to assist you if you could visit our page: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Great thermostat. Program it from your phone. Set it to lower temp gradually to go easy on HVAC system. So nice - refreshes the house while I’m sleeping. I can check temp while I’m gone to make sure dog is ok inside house. Well worth the money. Looks attractive too. Got the base plate to cover up where old thermostat was so didn’t need to patch and paint. Looks great.

    Nice to be able to control my thermostat from anywhere. Make sure you do not go with the pre made schedule they set for you in the setup process or it will change the temperature on its own.

     My family used to set the temperature and never lower it. This will by default correct to a more appropriate level. I like the fact also that if I’m away from home that I can change it on my cell phone. I need to get more things that can be associate or connected with this like the front door, TV volumes, and other things like that

    Very easy to install. Convenient. Wish it had a touch sensor as well. Nonetheless very easy to install if using the Google home app. Can be challenging to use manually without the smartphone

    Sadly I ended up having to return it due to my house being so old and needed t be rewired. But I got one for my mom and she loves it. I love how it's so small and blends into the wall and looks like a cool space age piece. I love that now my mom is able to control the temperature of her house on her phone and I feel that Google Nest is so user friendly to set up and she's able to figure it out on her own.

    This is a tough review as I know this is the cheap product with nest. This does not connect to the nest app that has more feature than the google app does. You must install with google app which is very limited in functionality. The overall setup was a little difficult even with directed guidance in app. Felt it always disconnected from google app and could not be recognized. Had to keep going through the process. The cheapness is also found in the overall interface of thermostat. Not easy navigating with finger on side. You pay for what you get here. It does work but not necessarily the way you would want it to. Save the frustration and get better nest device if you are a google smart home user.

      Hi there, we appreciate your feedback and thanks for letting us know your issues. We’re sorry to learn of your difficult experience with setup and functionality of your Nest Thermostat and the Google Home app.

      Using the Google Home app provides you with a lot of benefits including access to Google's trusted security platform and access to other Google tools. It provides you with seamless integration with your other Google devices. And if you find it hard to navigate the thermostat from the unit itself, you can control the thermostat with the Home app even when you’re not at home so you can change the target temperature, select a mode, use temperature presets, change thermostat settings and a lot more. You may check this link that includes video tutorial for a brief overview of Home app control: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9249866

      Also, if you will need to reinstall your Nest Thermostat in the future, the Google Home app will help you select all the right options for you and your home. You can use this help article as a reference: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10125150

      Lastly, It’s important to make sure that the thermostat is getting enough power from your system wires as the connectivity issue of your thermostat is related to power issues. If your HVAC unit can’t supply enough power, the thermostat battery will start draining, and this results in your thermostat limiting its features such as Wi-Fi connection to preserve the battery. The resolution may be to install a common (C) wire in your system to deliver constant power to the thermostat. The power resolution will also help fix the connectivity issue. We recommend contacting a Nest Pro technician to check your system first and install a common (C) wire if needed.

      We care about your experience and your input helps us better understand our customers' preferences and needs. And if you have any concerns about your Nest Thermostat, don’t hesitate to visit us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This product has been very easy to use. I’m a bit of a penny pincher so knowing that this device is able to detect my presence and adjust accordingly brings me comfort. Also I would imagine my carbon footprint is reduced thanks to this device’s presence setting.

    I've had this installed for a year, no problems. I still haven't figured out how to work the actual thermostat, but since i can use my phone to change what I need to, I don't ever have to touch it. It's VERY small which i like, it blends in well

    I needed to use an installation expert to install as it needed a little extra wiring. If you are somewhat adept at wiring that would probably not be necessary. I also had difficulty getting it to work on my iPhone. I don't know what the problem was (iPhone or app) but it did resolve itself and works great now. I do recommend this thermostat.
