Community Voice & Feedback
They system is terrible it cuts out to many times!! There is no technical support when it goes down..
Too easily to access to my google account. Please put security login.
DAVID the cameras were easy to install and show me everything around my home. They’re great.
Nest used to be good. Then Google bought it. Now it stinks.
Nestcam Feed takes ages to shows and app keeps crashing i am using in iPhone 17 Pro Max and footage takes forever to show feed. Its very unreliable app. When it was with Nestcam it works great. After merging with google home, All nest camera becomes trash.
I have a hard time viewing my google home widgets on my iPhone Home Screen since whenever I have coloured icons and widgets, the text ends up white along with the widget background. I cannot see anything.
Inconsistent: Service has gone down every day for the past three days (and counting)
Every year their subscription price increases significantly. 2025 to 2026 it increased 33% from 150 to 200. I still don’t have the ability to do something as simple as creating a custom clip where I set the start and end time of a video.
Please don’t waste your money getting google nest cameras. They’re very unreliable. The video feed constantly goes in and out and is unavailable for view half of the time. The cameras consistently go offline and need to be power cycled. It’s ridiculous how much they cost just to be so bad.
Horrible. Can’t find simple settings. SLOW responses. Ask it to set a five second timer and you will count down five seconds in your head before it sets one for you.
This app always makes it easier to control my tv when I loose the remote 😬🤣🙃
How is Google home not really a Google product?? Interfacing with other apps is the worst,
Not happy
Not happy
So I had to get a new phone and all my connections are going very well until I got to my Nest and Google and Google wants me to set up account blah blah blah which I did and it doesn’t show me at all connection to Nest so here I said, unable to control my Nest. It stinks. Of course you can’t get any help.
This thermostat is supposed to sense when you’re home and when you’re away and automatically change to Home or Away settings. That doesn’t work, and what’s worse is that it is difficult to manually change between Home and Away. One my old original Nest thermostat you could go on the app and set it to Home while you were heading there and it would be comfortable when you arrived. Now you have to search and search for the button to do so. The app is difficult to use and to change settings and I hate that they force you to allow Google Home to access you location data all the time because nobody should trust google. I’m shopping for a new thermostat already.
