3rd party Floodlight camera

rtan — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 19:35:19 GMT

I have several Eufy cameras. Some are just cameras and others are floodlight cams. Google Home shows the cameras without issue. However, Google Home see my floodlight cams as lights rather than cameras. How can I make Google Home connect to my floodlight cams as cameras?

This Eufy support page says "At this time, the Google Assistant integration does not support camera streaming into the Google Home App."

Not sure why it says that but I'm able to stream other Eufy cameras on Google Home App. Just the Floodlight cam it cannot. Also, the problem is not whether Google Home can stream but it sees the floodlight cam as light rather then camera.

Maybe it's a bug related to the fact that Google Nest's floodlight camera shows up in the Google Home app as a light and a camera.
