Nest doorbell (battery) feedback

Pocken — Sun, 21 Nov 2021 11:53:04 GMT

Hi,

I have had the nest doorbell (battery) for three weeks now and I think it is overall a good product. However, there are a few things that bothers me:

- There is no way to schedule when the camera should be activated. For example it would be good to deactivate it daytime during the weekends. When the kids are running in and out, I get a notification every time...

- There there should also be a way to decide which faces to send notifications for. For example, I don't need to get notified when the camera sees me.

- There should also be a way to decide which speakers that should ring when someone rings the doorbell. For example when the kids are sleeping I don't want the speakers in their rooms to sound.

I hope someone here can relay this to the developers :).

You could just turn off notifications during this period

I set the doorbell to the speaker that I want it to sound to. Hope that helps

Well, turning off notifications would solve the problem but in my mind it is a basic feature to schedule the cameras, just like how other cameras work (Arlo etc.)

"I set the doorbell to the speaker that I want it to sound to. Hope that helps"

How is that done?
