What we do

What we don’t do

24/7 live streaming

Nest Cam plugs in so it doesn’t run out of power. And you can check in as much as you want.

Limited streaming

Cameras that rely on batteries give you limited streaming to conserve power. And what happens if they die when you’re on holiday?

24/7 continuous recording

With Nest Aware (sold separately), you can see the full story, not just part of what happened.

Record event snippets

Some cameras only record if they sense motion. But if they miss something, you will too.

Person alerts

With Nest Aware, Nest Cam can tell the difference between a person and a thing. So you'll get alerts that you care about.

Generic alerts

Some cameras can only tell if there’s motion, so you won't be able to tell the difference between a person and a tree swaying.

Two-way audio

Let a stranger know that you’re paying attention, or hear what’s happening.

No audio

So you can’t speak to get someone's attention or listen in.

Crisp 1080p video

Nest Cam’s high-quality glass lens, image sensor and 8x digital Clear Zoom let you see every detail in full 1080p HD.

Low-quality video

Some cameras say they have HD, but their sensors and plastic lenses can give you a lower image quality.

Bright, clear Night Vision

Eight infrared LEDs help you see the whole picture, even when it’s pitch black.

Grainy video at night

Some cameras give you a pixelated spotlight view when it’s dark.

Quick, easy setup

Nest Cam Outdoor is designed for simple setup. Just plug in the cable and adaptor, mount the camera and go.

Complex installation

That may require tangles of cables, remote hubs and drilling through walls.

Cloud storage

With Nest Aware, Nest Cam safely and securely stores your video history in the cloud, so you can access it any time.

Local storage

If a camera stores video on a memory card and is stolen, there’s no way to go back and see what happened.

Shared live streams

Create public or password-protected live streams to share with family, neighbours or the whole world.

No shared live streams

So if you want to share what’s going on, you have to give away your password.

Check in from all devices

Sign in to the Nest app anytime from a phone, tablet or laptop. And invite family members to do the same.

Check in from one device

Some cameras can only stream to one device. But what if you lose your phone or want to check in from your laptop?
