Nest Community = Lots of issues, not a single Google customer rep or developer responding...

Nest Community = Lots of issues, not a single Google customer rep or developer responding...

Simply put, there is very little you can do here, Google simply is a software company struggling (like Microsoft) to make and SUPPORT their hardware.

Most of the issues are EASY software code fixes, which you would think they could get done quicker, but.. it comes down to what the LAWYERS tell the Developers they can or should do....

Any feature that HELPS, like disabling notifications on Familiar faces (Key requested feature BROKEN for over a year) is left as is, most likely a Legal debate at google more than anything else.

Sadly the community members are far an away from anyone on the Home/Nest Teams. Like an actual Project Manager or product manager...

Most of the threads are LOCKED, so I cannot even comment! Just a Kudos...

Good Luck, Return their crap and move on. Do More Research, ask security advisor... etc.

Still not sure if the "staff" here are bots or just HEAVILY held down by management. Either way the experience sucks, the only time you get good service from Google is pre purchase.

See also: numerous requests for new functionality met with staff responses of "Is your issue solved yet"? Check yourselves, you spuds

Bots or both. I just posted a thread about it, immediately locked and the responses were also deleted of people who were agreeing with me.

I don't know what they're trying to achieve. I'm more likely to stop using these products based on this experience on this community, than the lack of features I expected.

OP here- this has been open for few days _ NOT A SINGLE response from Google/Nest. Just simply Lame and quite sad.

I wish someone who has a good lawyer would simply sue them, that is the next step.

Brad, that sounds nice - but the reality for a lot of users is a buggy and inconsistent experience, no thought to UX. If you don't see the evidence here due to cases being closed and hidden, check the reddit communities for Google Home and Nest.

no worries aatienza - before you close can you just let us know where abouts on the roadmap the fixes to restore previous functionality are? Can we expect these updates to roll out this year?
