“SECURITY BY DESIGN’ FOR Nest CAMS - a priority

TBCuthbert — Mon, 13 Oct 2025 18:49:40 GMT

I do appreciate the Google Home app, AI interface and descriptions, and slide across between views… making progress …

For consideration:

In Nest app, it is all about security …

1. Large views of the cams initially in preview

2. Immediate large views of cam with activity zones immediately identifying which zones activity was in

in Google Home app, it seems more about cosmetics than security.

1. Small views of cams that are available for viewing with other

2. Delays until the cam displays the real time view without activity zones immediately identifying info

the Nest app focus is “SECURITY BY DESIGN’”. Hopefully some of the current Google Home App team have this focus on “SECURITY by Design”.

Hi TBCuthbert,

Thank you for posting in the community. I understand that while you appreciate the progress and modern interface of the Google Home app, you feel its design is less focused on security compared to the Nest app. I appreciate the details that you shared.

I'd like to ask you to fill out the Feedback Form, as this will help us keep your suggestion in mind.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you need help or have more questions in the future.

Best regards,

Thank you.
I have filled out the Feedback form many times over the past 10 years.

Unfortunately, there is no way to provide the feedback. I just provided you here within your feedback form as you know so I did it here which unfortunately it seems like you’re not able to use which is something perhaps you need to fix. For your consideration Anish? We do need more of this input, actually being used to improve product lines.
