Home and Away routines

Hi,

i recently purchased four Nest Cameras.

reluctantly i clicked the presence detections in order to avoid be spammed with notifications. I however realise that the cameras are still recording which and i want to to turn them off when i or someone else is home.

after reading up i realise that i need to go through the Home and Away routines. After looking in my Actitivity tab i can see that the routines are starting correctly when i leave and enter. However i can’t locate them in either the Automation Tab or the Setting Tab. I’ve tried to delete all my household routines but still don’t get the option to setup the routines. 

i’m using the swedish version of google home

Hi @Chris38 

Did you enable the feature: Away-only feature in the Google Home App?
This should solve your question.

Please check THIS link for more information.

Hi,

Thank you for your response.

Maybe i’m missing something but are you referring to Away-Only Notifications? I already have this enabled but i want to turn off the camera (battery-draining and for privacy reasons). They way I understand the Home & Away routine it seems possible but i can’t find them

Thank you and i apologize if i’m missing something
