Anyone thinking about buying the current generation of Google cameras, please do your research and consider other options. When we first bought into the system it was based entirely on the "Nest" platform and used the nest app. I couldn't have asked for a better system and it did everything I wanted and more, however after Google bought out nest the system has gone from the best to one of the worst home camera systems. Below is a list of the negative changes I have experienced using the newer Gen2 cameras.

I agree, the impossibility to save video of camera feed that is not considered an event is a great lack in the second generation cameras. This is indeed a deal breaker.

This is absolutely true--I had to buy a new camera, now I'm left without any recording on the stupid Google Home app. Google took a perfectly great product and completley **bleep**ed it up. As a security system, using a cell phone to view past events is useless.

Hello everyone,
Thanks for reaching out here in the Community. We appreciate your interest however, we don't have any news to share about applying these features. We're always looking for ways to improve and we'll take it as feedback. I'd suggest you send feedback using this link to let the Google Engineering team know about your concern. While they won't respond directly back to you, this is the best way to let them know about this. Please let me know if you have other questions or concerns.
I appreciate the help, MplsCustomer.

You're as **bleep**ed up as the engineering team. give me a break; i have to use the app to give feedback about the shocking lack of features that were once available.
