Level of authorization?

BlackWater — Tue, 01 Aug 2023 08:09:39 GMT

Just installed my first security camera and it kinda blows my mind you don't have options to restrict people from administrative privilages. It's either they are part of the Nest network with full access or remove them completely from using any of it. I think it's a huge security issue. Google is a tech giant, you would think that's one of the things they should prioritize. They have the manpower, knowhow, resources and had their Nest products out for 5 years now. I mean how hard is it to implement levels of acces? What gives?

This is a long standing feature request for the Google Home app. I’d encourage you to also send this feedback directly to Google. You will not receive a response, unless Google need more details from you, however the more feedback that is sent about this the better, the team are still reading the feedback.

I appreciate your help, David_K.
