About this app
Control your Nest thermostat, arm and disarm your Nest Secure alarm system, see your home with Nest Cam, and get 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 heat and turning on the camera when you leave. Forget to set the alarm? It will notice, and send you a Remind Me alert.

Ratings and Reviews
app stuck spinning. can't get to the main screen to add a product. therefore cant use the product.
Still trying to add another cell phone
The Nest is horrible, it has a mind of its own. It repeatedly changes the temperature that I set it to, to something else. It is so unreliable that I need to turn it completely off when I go out of town. It is not uncommon for it to raise the temperature 10⁰ higher than I set it for.
Extremely buggy lately. Some commands sent get aced upon later, overriding commands sent subsequently. Android app Will spontaneously sign out, then if you force close and relaunch it, it will bypass. App will take changes and not send them, and again a force close then works. App needs rework with new Android versions, but it's still more functional than Google Home.
Cameras are clear when they decide to work. Not often at all. It was purchased not only for security but to see who's coming on your property. Works maybe one day out of a week.
works now and again and for some reason it just stops responding to the app even though it says connected it won't turn the heating on or off
