Changing from Dropcam/Nest to Nest

[JostLunstroth]

I have 8 Dropcams and older Nest camera at two locations and all over accessible via one account.  I was told by Google that I have to change all to the new Nest models by April 2024.  Can I slowly replace them or do I need to replace all of them at once?

At the end of the day, replacing them is entirely up to you. However, starting April 8, 2024, your Dropcam will no longer work. You won’t be able to use the Nest app to check the status of your Dropcam, view live streams, receive notifications, or change settings.

I read an article that said Nest would offer cameras to those with Dropcams that have a subscription.  Is that true?

Hi everyone,

@Bnzmom, here is an article you’re referring to about the dropcam replacement and discount.

@JostLunstroth, I just wanted to follow up and see if you still need any help. Let me know if you have any additional questions from here.

Best, 
Edmond

Hey there! 

Just one quick final check in here since activity has slowed down. We'll be locking the thread in the next 24 hours, but if you still need help, I would be happy to keep it open. If there's more we can do, just let me know.

Thanks,
Edmond.
