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.)

March 2025: Standards seem to be dropping. Broadcasts just stopped working most likely due to an update and it doesn't appear they will be fixed. Some prompts also randomly stopped working eg after always being able to say "stop playing", now you have to say "stop playing music" - of course you only know after having to try multiple times. "Weather" no longer pics up my location. Why mess with working features? it's becoming so annoying to use. 2023: 4 Stars.

The app itself is okay, to an extent, but it is very slow to load. Usually waiting 10-15 seconds for it to work. It's not a phone issue, either, as it's just as slow on my S24 Ultra as it was on my Note Ultra. The Home app is so much faster and is almost instant.

Really handy app in many ways - the ability to turn on the heat remotely is amazing, and it's much easier to set a schedule in the app than on the nest unit itself. I've marked it down as almost weekly, the app repopulates my schedule with ghost temperature settings I've had in the past but long since deleted - very annoying to keep having to reset that!
