It only works with the Google Home App. Google is deprecating the Nest products and Nest App and migrating to Google Home. All new products only work in the Google Home app, even though they are still called "Nest".

If its one of the newest battery, its in home as already said, and nothing but some footnote now on the sales marketing site.  If you scroll down you will see the "footnote".

Not only does it not show up in the NEST app, but there is no way to view the new cameras on your computer.

Are you using an Android emulator like Bluestacks?

Must be, Windows doesnt have a Home app, none that I see on Googles site.

Yeah, I had been through this before, and uninstalled it for some reason, but I cant remember why. Update: Now I remember, it requires Virtualization, and my computer is too old. It is limited to one cores and is very slow. :o(
