AVOID - DOES NOT RING ON PHONE
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does not RING ON YOUR phone, the sole purpose of a doorbell like this (to receive doorbell calls when not home). It only rings INSIDE the house with a smart device or old school chime. And their support is HORRENDOUS! I knew more about the product than the 3 agents I was connected to!

Posted .Hi JoshuaG, thanks for sharing your concerns about the Nest Doorbell (battery). We’re sorry to learn it has not met your preferences, and that we’ve fallen short on your support needs.
Although Nest doorbells have sounds that help you know what’s happening (for example, when it restarts), a chime is not included, But when a visitor presses your Nest Doorbell (battery), you can hear an audible alert if you have compatible smart speakers or displays, like Nest Audio or Nest Hub. You can connect a Google speaker or display and set up visitor announcements if you want to get notified when someone rings your doorbell when you’re home. Also, alerts for Google Nest cameras are a bit more complex than for other Nest products since you can choose motion and sound alert settings, and change how and when you’ll get them. However, the sound that you’ll hear from your phone depends on the phone’s notification settings. For more details, visit: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9210305
We’ll definitely share your feedback with the right team to work on improving how we handle cases with accuracy and efficiency. For questions or concerns, besides having help available through phone or chat, we also have lots of support articles available at the Google Nest Help Center.

Poor Quality / Short Warranty
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Poor product that stopped functioning completely 5 months after warranty expiration. Short warranty and low quality are a nasty combination. Stay away
