We just bought two Battery Nest Protect Devices and while I understand that the protect devices cannot be added to the Home App I cannot even add nest as a connected service through the “Works with Google” function because I created my nest account using “Login with google” which isn’t an option when trying to connect the accounts. So how can I connect my nest account to my home account? Or do I not need to do this? I made a “test” home in the nest account and it did sync to my Home account too. So is this feature just there for different reasons?
Similarly though, is there any timeline for Nest Protect to sync to the Home app or the wireless Nest Doorbell to connect to the Nest app? How did we manage to find two new products that are both under Google Nest that can’t be recognized by the same app? While other new products have to be added in one or the other app and will sync. Having two apps is cumbersome but somewhat understandable but having so many different ways various Nest products behave within the two app “solution” is incredibly frustrating.
