Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use it as a baby monitor? If I am asleep and the baby starts crying will it automatically play the audio for me on my phone or just an alert?
It works as a baby monitor, but it definitely works best in tandem with a tablet or Google home hub so you have a screen to look at other than having to bring it up on your phone. We use both an iPad and a hub to keep an eye on our guy with the nest cam, but the hub has the added benefit of being a digital photo frame as well! And the hub is much cheaper if you don’t already have a tablet, before we had a tablet we just used our hub - Would this be suitable for keeping an eye on my elderly mum (she has dementia and some history of falls)?
Yes, it will allow you to have two-way audio communication as well. So if she does fall, you can talk to her even if she can’t get to a phone. - Can I switch it off or disconnect the cam directly from the cam? I would like to be connected only when I get out of the home. Thanks!
Not really. There is no switch on the actual cam. You can unplug it I guess, but this defeats the design. Basically, everything is controlled through the app. Without the app you can’t really use the cam. But it’s easy to do with the app. As soon as you leave home, just go to the app and switch it on. Or if you have a set schedule, program the scheduler in the app for specific se times. But you really have to use the app to turn it on and off. - Can more than one phone see the video at once?
yes. I have my phone and my wife’s phone connected you can also give limited rights to someone so they can see the camera but not make any adjustments. - Do I need a computer at home to use this, or is wifi and my iPhone ok?
Wifi and an iPhone are all you need. Setup that way is really easy by scanning the code on the back of the camera and signing up for a (free with no recording) account. - I wanted to get this to use as a baby monitor. Do you think this is a good choice?
Yes…I even thought that when I got mine – – how nice that would have been. It has night vision, so even when the room is pitch dark you can see everything very clearly – – works great with the app, but of course, the computer screen is better to view from because of the size of the screen vs your phone. Plus you can hear everything in the room and have alerts sent to you if any movement occurs. I would use for a baby monitor, yes - If you don’t purchase Nest Aware, does the camera still work for streaming audio and video to your phone?
Yes, it works but you don’t get the saved recordings. I get my motion activations notifications on my Samsung Galaxy phone when I put the Nest Cam into away mode. I just pull my cell phone out to see who activated my Nest Cam. It is usually the kids coming home.
