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.

Nest Secure alarm system

- Receive a Remind Me alert if you leave home and forget to set the alarm.

the temperature schedule feature is convoluted and borders on dangerous. You wake up on a winter day and it's 64 on the thermostat, but in colder rooms it's under 60. If you turn off auto-schedule, it's still very hard to set a schedule manually. I'm fine but the elderly and immuno-compromised could be a bit more likely to get sick. The feature is a great idea since it does lower utility bills and wastefulness, but it's horribly implemented. Basic features like humidity gauge etc work fine

Great app when it works. However, the app recently has been causing issues. It is showing my thermostat is offline, I did all the recommended troubleshooting steps the app suggested, but it still is showing as offline. It appears customers (myself included) have been having issues with the app after updating it. Up until late February, the app was working fine until I updated it. BTW, the thermostat itself still works and all the features on it are functional.

Four years later and the rating still applies! We have basic stuff as far as cameras and thermostats in two houses in two different states. It's nice to be able to look in to the other house and control the thermostat if necessary. For the most part, we probably have 99% reliability. If we do lose our camera service, it's because of the internet, not the cameras. We've had these cameras and thermostats for over 3 years. Good job Google / Nest.
