Why can’t I set up a schedule for a nest cam and have a home and away routine? I want the cameras to turn off while I am at home, but automatically turn on at a certain time of day. For example 11pm-8am they would be scheduled to be on, but when I am up they will turn off so I don’t get notifications.
I apologize for my late response and thank you for all of your patience while waiting for a reply. I understand how frustrating your situation must be, and I would love to help however I can. Do you still need assistance?
Okay, so you are saying that I can set up the Home and Away mode and the schedule mode at the same time. When the schedule starts, it would override the home and away?
I am saying that you can turn Home + Away on or off manually, or let it work automatically which is somewhat of a process as it has to learn some behaviors for when you are home and when you are gone. Scheduling a routine works a bit differently, you can learn more about routines here.
