How do add my new nest Cam to my existing Nest app that already has my other cameras and thermostat attached?

Unfortunately you cannot. Any of the new Google Nest Cameras released in 2021 are only compatible with the Google Home app.

This is BS to loyal customers,  they need to figure out a clean interface like the app, so one can quickly look at their alerts, I mean what's the point now? If I would've known this issue I would've changed over to Arlo or Ring.... please pass this up the chain Silver expert.

Don’t get your hopes up.  Google doesn’t care about our needs.  They purchased Nest and destroyed it.  They rolled out new cameras that don’t integrate with the nest app.  They hired a 5 year old, gave them a crayon and said here create a new app to piss off the users

Rubes...I really hope "the powers that be" really put aside the "there will always be unhappy customers" and work something out,  but more importantly acknowledge the flaw, and say they're looking into it?

We can only hope. Everything I’ve seen and read points to the Nest app being killed off and replaced with the Google Home app. The hope is that the Google Home app becomes as good or better than Nest and users of the Nest app know just how best in class the Nest app is. For me, the thought of losing the current Nest app to an alternative inferior app which then compromises the thousands of invested dollars and hours is absolutely gut wrenching.
