    For all the money that I pay, I can’t understand why it’s off-line more than it is online.

    I had 5 Nest cameras that use the Nest app. All work great. Decided to add more cameras, but the new Nest cameras ONLY work with the Google Home app. Well, the Google Home app doesn't allow the Home/Away assist functionality to work. So to use these cameras properly, I now have to manually turn on/off the cameras when I leave/return.

    As a long time Nest customer, I had to switch to Google Home, because I bought more cameras. I have 15 cameras in use over two homes and have 4 new cameras which are not supported bey the Nest App. Google Home is so much worse than the Nest App. Difficult to navigate, the preview is much smaller in the cam pics and worst of all, you cannot set many features on the older Nest cams, but you have to switch to the Nest App. Really? It is obviously not difficult for a software developer to make this possible. So, if you want everybody to switch to Google (although the App is worse) why don’t you offer all settings there? Very confusing!

  • Terrible terrible Google product

    If you ever have the misfortune of purchasing a nest product and are now forced to use this app, I pity your soul. When nest was acquired by Google, the seemed to believe their app (non-functional) should replace the much more feature rich and totally functional app (nest app). We now get to enjoy staring at a camera loading screen for several seconds, way past when we got the notification, and by the time the person or vehicle is gone, we get about a flash of who or what was there before losing image again. Get ready to be plagued with “Live Video Unavailable. The camera may be unreachable or saving battery.” Because that will be what you’ll get 90% of the time. I haven’t been able to stream more than 20-30 seconds without it erroring out with that. And the cherry on top, not just the streams are messed up, but the history too! It is so frustrating trying to find a little video from days ago without just giving up from the absolute horrific lag and instability. At times it feels like they’re just taking 4 second captures at a time, transcoding that snippet in the cloud, streaming that to the app, then beginning to transfer the next 4 seconds after the video is fully received from the app. Insanity.
  • No customer service

    Before Google took over it was easy to get customer service if you had a problem. The equipment never went out and you could see your camera right away. Now there is such a lag time the person is gone before you could talk to them or even see who it is when I get a notification. I have been online and left messages for someone to contact me. Nothing. You ruined the best product on the market.
