Video player controls in Google Home app

[FormerNestFan]

I know Google is being an arse about forcing new cameras to the Google Home app instead of the comparatively great Nest app, but is there any way to get player controls (timeline scrolling) like you can with the Nest app? It's a feature I am paying for so I'd think it'd be there. I haven't installed my Nest Cam with Floodlight yet, but won't be happy to have a feature I am paying for not be available!

Sorry, never mind...I found the answer:

• For the Nest Cam (wired), Nest Cam (battery), and Nest Doorbell (battery), find the video history timeline in the Home app.
• For other Nest cameras and doorbells, find the video history timeline in the Nest app instead.
• You can also find a list of recorded camera events for any Nest camera or doorbell model that you have in the Home app in the Feed and home history.

Nest Cam with Floodlight is only available in the Home App. It won't be available in the Nest App. It's a different platform.
