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 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.

Nest Learning Thermostat and Nest Thermostat E

Thermostats that program themselves to help you save energy.

- Change the temperature from the subway or the sofa using your phone.
- See how much energy you used, and why.
- View and edit your schedule.
- Get 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 leave home and forget 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.

- See the status of your batteries, sensors, and Wi-Fi connection.

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

- See what you missed with snapshots of the last three hours.
- Check in 24/7 with crisp 1080p HD video (Nest Cam and Dropcam Pro only).

In the summer, I regularly use my central furnace as a whole house fan to circulate cool air at night. Once I drop the temperature setting below the outside temperature, without fail, I have to turn the "heat" system off and restart it in order to make the fan program work. No matter how many different "tricks" I've tried, the app will not start the fan unless I do as above. That's been my experience for the last year, and a half or so of use. So annoying.

Every single time I open the app I get a pop-up requesting that I turn on notifications. Then every 10th time or so I get a pop up for the Nest Renew program - which would allow my thermostat to be controlled by the power company. Seems no way to turn off or disable them from repeatedly popping up. So every time I have to select that I am (still) not interested in notifications or enrolling. It's annoying enough that the next time I need to purchase a thermostat, I will buy a different brand.

The app hasn't improved in years...other than manual control from the app, the rest of the features are useless and have not been improved upon and the development team needs to be replaced...it would be nice to have Google maps integration (Google owns nest) so that this thing is actually smart and turns on before you get home...the schedule and learning settings are garbage with poor development...let us set the ECO cool below 76!!! We want 74
