Tried the factory reboot on the doorbell . Rebooted my android phone , 2.4 GHZ on both . Every time i try to add a new item it says move it closer . I did have it installed but it kept telling me it was offline , maybe i should of not did a factory reboot . The blue light is flashing when i try to add it . Any other ways to add it ?

Hi BH2,

Thanks for reaching out and bringing this concern to our attention. I know how it feels when you can't add your Nest doorbell to your Google Home app. To confirm, how far is your Nest doorbell from your Wifi router?

Give these steps a try:

  • Reinstall your Google Home app.
  • Restart your Wifi router.
  • Try using a different phone, tablet or iPad.

Let us know how it goes.

Best,
Emerson
