Adding household

I have a g Suite account and just purchased Nest...

 

Was this a waste of money or is their anyway to add my husband who is also a g suite user??

And what about children who have icloud emails or school emails?? Do they need a gmail email to access??

Unfortunately, you can't invite a Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) account to be a home member. In the relevant help article, you'll see this note:

You can't invite anyone using a: Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) account

You can invite iCloud or school emails, but they must have a Google account associated with that email address.

I would also bear in mind that when someone becomes a member of a home, they have the same access as you as the home owner, including full access and control of all devices, service and settings.

Hey there,

 

davidking, thanks for the help!

 

Nurse2003, hopefully the information provided by davidking above answers your questions. We recommend using a regular Google Account so that you can maximize the potential of your Google Nest device.
