1. Bought 2 new model 2021 Nest cameras.
2. Downloaded Google Home app on Android.
3. Scanned QR for cameras and added them to Google Home fine on my Google account.
4. Opened Alexa app and tried to enable skill "Google Nest".
5. It shows no devices.
 
I have tried downloaded Nest app on Android but these will not add the cameras after scanning the QR (it suggests to use Google Home app).
 
I have also phoned up Alexa support -  they suggested to follow the guides and also stepped me through trying to use Nest app instead of Home app.

I have the same issue with the new nest doorbell camera. It cannot be added to Alexa.
