Doorbell camera

The back of my doorbell camera doesn’t have a code or six digit number. How do I put it in if I have the original box. It doesn’t give me an option to put in the serial number. Does anyone know how to fix this or did I just throw my money away?

The QR code, with the Setup Code above or below, should be as shown below.  On one of our Nest Hello Doorbells, they were also on the paper sleeve in the doorbell's packaging.  I'm not aware of anywhere else it can be found. I can't explain what's happened with your doorbell.

Unfortunately, you need either the QR code or the 6-character alphanumeric Setup Code to install or reinstall a Google Nest camera. We write down our Setup Codes for this reason.

Is there not another place to find it the black back has nothing

I think I should be able to get my money back. This was a gift and my dad can’t find the receipt from Walmart. This was gotten for my kids and my safety hopefully Google will replace it

Google Nest has not made or sold the Google Nest Hello Doorbell for at least a year or more, but if it's a new camera and it came without a QR code OR Setup Code, it simply cannot be installed.

Hi there @Mommabear904,

 

I'm sorry you're having trouble with your Nest camera. I understand how frustrating it can be when your security system isn't working as expected.

 

We'd like to further check on this. Could you fill out this form and let me know once you're done?

 

Best regards,
