Indoor Camera Auto Away turn on feature

nyirishman1877 — Wed, 19 Oct 2022 13:57:28 GMT

I currently have 3 Gen1 indoor nest camera's. I just bought a 4th one but it is a Gen 2 indoor camera. When I turn on the Away feature for all cameras to turn on automatically. The Gen 2 camera does not unless i turn it on myself. Do I need to upgrade my nest aware subscription? So all camera's Gen 1 and 2 ALL turn on at the same time without manually turning one on?

Thank you in advance

I await a response 🙂

Hello nyirishman1877,

Thanks for posting here in the community and sorry to hear about your home and away assist that's not working well. I know how it feels when something isn’t working the way it should. To confirm have you tried setting up the home and away assist again to your 2nd gen Nest camera through the Google Home App? Hit this link for more steps.

Keep us posted.

Best,

Emerson
