The much-awaited update to the Google Home app has finally arrived and it is bringing support for older Nest Cams. This announcement was made by Google late last week and it has been welcomed with open arms. The improved compatibility offers a host of new features and functions for users, with new and enhanced capabilities that result from transitioning from the older Nest Cam to the Google Home app.
The new update adds numerous improvements to the Google Home app, including the ability to connect multiple Nest Cam models, such as the Nest Cam Outdoor version and the Nest Cam IQ. Users will also have the ability to control their Nest Cam devices and manage settings such as sensitivity, motion and audio detection, as well as set up alerts. Additionally, users will now be able to access live streaming video from their Nest Cam directly within the Google Home app.
In addition, Google has improved the overall user experience for those using their Nest Cam, with new UI elements that help to make navigation easier and more efficient. For instance, Google has added the ability to stream content from multiple Nest Cam devices, so users can have a bird’s eye view of their surroundings. They can also monitor individual cameras from the same screen.
Overall, this update to the Google Home app is great news for those that own Nest Cams or are looking to buy one. Not only does it make the overall user experience better, but it also opens up new possibilities for users, such as providing them with more control over their home security and the ability to stream content from multiple cameras at once. This update is a welcome addition to the Google Home app and is sure to make its lives easier and more convenient.
