Horrible after the latest update

I’ve had this app for years and never had an issues with my devices. Since the latest AI implementation I started experiencing issues with my home AC and cameras. If I use the App to control the climate in the house the AC unit turns off and on. I closed the App and turn on the AC at the Nest thermostat the AC runs fine. I also have a weird issue with my Nest Cam. I’m not getting motion notifications. I know theyre going to blame on my phone. All I did was update the App.

NEST Camera Google App review

Since Google App took over the NEST App the camera review is terrible !!! Have used NEST cameras for years with high satisfaction since the GOOGLE app would not buy again very poor operation now.

Nest worked way better

It needs to be updated and made better. I get notifications after the person is already at my door. Most of the time it takes so long to load you can’t even see who it is. You can’t unlock your door from google home. Nest worked a lot better. Google home is horrible.

This sucks

Too hard to use

Device on/off losing sync

Could be the latest update, but my lights in the Google home app are showing fixed on or off status, and can’t be toggled.

They are working normally with the native Kogan smarter home app.
