About this app

At Google Nest, we make products that are beautiful, helpful and easy to use. The Nest app is no exception.

Control your Nest thermostat, arm and disarm your Nest Secure alarm system, see your home with Nest Cam and receive an alert if Nest Protect goes off – all in one place. And receive notifications on your Android phone or tablet.

Nest uses sensors, algorithms and the location of your phone to do the right thing automatically, turning off the heating and turning on the camera when you leave. Forgotten to set the alarm? It will notice, and send you a Remind me alert.

Nest Learning Thermostat and Nest Thermostat E

Thermostats that program themselves to help you save energy.

- Change the temperature while on the train or from the sofa using your phone.
- See how much energy you've used and why.
- View and edit your schedule.
- Receive extreme temperature alerts before your home gets too cold.

Nest Secure alarm system

- Arm and disarm your home remotely from the app.
- Receive a Remind me alert if you've gone out and forgotten to set the alarm.
- Receive a security alert on your phone telling you what triggered the alarm – a door or window opening, or someone entering a room.

Nest Protect

The smoke and carbon monoxide alarm that thinks and speaks, and alerts your phone.

- Receive an alert if Nest Protect senses smoke or carbon monoxide. (Requires Wi-Fi and a working Internet connection.)

- See the status of your batteries, sensors and Wi-Fi connection.
- Run a Safety Check-Up to test all your alarms at once (Nest Protect 2nd generation only.)

Nest Cam IQ Indoor and Outdoor, Nest Cam Indoor, Nest Cam Outdoor and Dropcam

The security cameras that let you see your home on your phone, inside and out.

- See what you've missed with snapshots of the past three hours.
- Check in 24/7 with crisp 1080p HD video (Nest Cam and Dropcam Pro only).
- Receive person alerts (or familiar face alerts with Nest Cam IQ) and up to 30 days of video history when you subscribe to Nest Aware. (Subscription service sold separately.)

Google had some great ideas but another two years have passed and the unreliability remains . I have one word to describe the accuracy and reliability of "Presence Sensing" - "Flaky"! My settings are unchanged. Yes they are all set correctly. I double check them with every malfunction. Fast forward 2 more years and the problems are actually worse. I simply do not understand why Google will not fix this this. I think it's time to switch to a different brand smart thermostat!

Hello there. We understand the frustration with presence sensing. While this feature used your phone's location, that functionality is no longer supported. Your feedback is crucial as we constantly improve. Share your thoughts here: https://google.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2aStd8wsbcLGvwG

I love that it detects when I arrive home and adjust the thermostat. However, just like the rest of big Corp, they are greedy and want more money. So I won't be able to use this app anymore unless I decide to buy the new shiny one even though this one works perfectly fine. Don't buy a nest or eventually they gouge you too.

Nest works well with Google Home, but two things could improve. 1, give more notice BEFORE the monthly smoke alarm sound check, not after it happens. 2, give more time to tell the app that smoke is from cooking before sounding the alarm - 5 seconds isn't enough time to get the phone out of my pocket, open the app, and figure out how to say it's safe.
