I had some old cameras on my nest account, which was working fine. I recently added a couple of cameras and they didn't show up in the nest account. I was told to use google home. I don't see how to scrub back and look at the history that the cameras are recording and how to save clips. It was easy to do with the nest account, but my new cameras didn't show up there. Help.

Here is Google Nest's help page for accessing history in the Google Home app:

This link is NOT accurate, the download buttons are missing.
I can see NO way to download clips, thus making the entire system absolutely worthless.
if we cant save clips to show police, #FAIL

Unfortunately the removal of the feature to save specific clips has rendered the Google Cameras useless. How can this functionality be left out? Just open up the old Nest portal and let us use the old software. It worked well. the AI does not pick up every event. Sometimes you need to show the police actions that happened before the clip. They have also made it much more difficult to reach through the history. I wish I had never purchased the 2.0 Google Home cameras, but now they have been outside and have gotten dirty and I can't return them. Buyer beware.
