New routines in Home app for nest cam control

[AllexT]

It's great to see that I can finally set schedules for my newer nest cam and doorbell in the Home app by creating a Household routine to turn them on/off at specific times. However, I work shifts so I want to be able to turn them on/off using a switch as a trigger. I have virtual switches setup on Smartthings to turn on/off Smartthings Home Security and Google Home recognises and can control them but if I try to setup an Automation in Google Home using the switch as a trigger to turn on/off the nest cam it just flags up an error. The only trigger I've found to work to control the cam is a time based trigger 😕

Hi AllexT,

I totally understand that this is a good feature to use with your Nest Camera  but, this feature is not yet available. I'd suggest you submit feedback about it, here's how. 

Let us know if you have other questions and concerns otherwise, we will be locking this thread after 24 hours. 

Thanks,

Juni
