Transferring Nest account to another family member

Hi

I would like to transfer my Nest account to my ex-wife.

I have searched the Community and support articles and not succeeded in working it out.

How do I do this so she can manage the Thermostat and Protect devices ?

Many thanks

There is no feature or setting to transfer ownership of a Nest account I'm afraid. The best thing to do is to remove the products from your Nest app or Google Home app (use the app you set the device up with) so your ex-wife can set them up with her own account.
