How can I get a notification if someone in my family has turned off the camera then turned back on?

Google Nest does not track or send notifications for when cameras are turned on and off. (I've seen a few other posts from customers hoping that it did.)

**bleep**, ok thanks for that. Is there a setting so the family can view the cameras but not be able to turn them on and off?

@jacktruant

Unfortunately, all members of a Google Nest “household” have full access to everything. It’s another issue that is frequently commented on in this forum.
