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.)
- Silence an alarm from your phone with App Silence (Nest Protect 2nd generation only.)
- 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.)
- See your Safety History so that you know when alerts happened and why.

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.

- Receive alerts when there's activity and respond to get someone's attention.
- 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.)

Nest Hello

Know who’s knocking.

- Can tell the difference between a person and something else.
- Notifies you about visitors, even if they don’t ring the bell.
- HD Talk and Listen lets you have a seamless conversation with someone at your door.

Nest x Yale Lock

The lock for a more secure connected home.

- Instead of sharing keys, assign passcodes in the Nest app to people you trust.

- With Home/Away Assist and Auto-lock, your door can lock itself when you leave.

It was good as a basic starting point for the hub of a smart home. Over time however, development stagnated and it never evolved. As a result, the app lacks a lot of the features that you think an app for a smart home should have. Those features that you know the data and systems should probably support but just never got built and deployed in updates over the years. The Google Home app is not much better at doing these functions either.

Like, it works, but it makes a lot of choices about my house temperature in the name of economy. That's hit and miss, though it's kinda like suffering for the sake of the environment. Whoever made the call for sliders on the schedule is a mad man. Please swap to focus-based pop up -+ buttons! I can only imagine anyone with a disability trying to adjust that! Also, I don't know what I'm missing to get the system to follow my phone's location, but I can't seem manage to make it see me as "home".

The app only works sometimes as far as showing the activities for the day. It will say no activities when there has been plenty. It also confuses faces ALL THE TIME. It has not notified me when someone is at my door nor does it allow you to immediately see who's at the door. It has also skipped showing a face. Ex: a delivery happened and on the app, it showed the delivery truck pull up, the it shows them walking away with no face showing. It may have shown up but it skipped that part. Upsetting.
