Google Nest Battery Doorbell is highly misleading

[TedM-CO]

I bought a battery doorbell on the advice of a Google rep in the store at Best Buy.  I have three Nest cameras and three thermostats, and I specifically did NOT want yet another home automation app.  I couldn't believe that the doorbell does NOT work with the NEST app, in spite of that being an explicit requirement described to the rep.  The doorbell does NOT "ring" anything anywhere, unless I just happen to be looking at my phone in hand.  In spite of assurances, I cannot access it via an Amazon Alexa.   I have learned that there might be an update some day that will fix this, but for now it is useless.  I returned it, and I will treat all Google claims with deep suspicion in the future.
