Nest Cams and Nest account.

String1946 — Sun, 05 May 2024 19:18:41 GMT

We have 2 homes. One in NC and one in GA. We have 4 nest cams at the NC home connected to a Nest account and are quite happy with them. If we wanted to add a few to our GA home can we connect them to our existing account with a subscription fee increase of course or would we have to buy a separate account? Also how many cameras can be connected to a single account? Thanks.

There's a maximum number of Nest products that you can have in each Nest home.

Nest thermostats	Maximum of 20 per home
Nest Temperature Sensors	Maximum of 6 per thermostat Maximum of 18 per home
Nest Protects	Maximum of 18 per home
Nest cameras and doorbells	Maximum of 10 per home (video quality depends on your internet bandwidth)
Nest × Yale Lock	Maximum of 10 per home
Nest Connect	Maximum of 4 per home

5 home max with Google account

3 Home max with Nest account

If you need more on one account you can create a second account that “owns” or creates the homes and then share access with the first account.

Also, yes multiple Nest Aware subscriptions would be required, one per individual home not per account. This can all be done under one account with a maximum of 5 (or 3 with Nest account) subscriptions per account.
