You would have to remove the "home" ("structure") from your previous Google account (gmail account), but I think you're first supposed to remove all the devices from the "home":

Is it possible for you to add your Nest Aware subscription to your previous Google account instead?

Well…I removed the home from my account and then created a new home on my other account…but still unable to subscribe to nest aware.  I of course didn’t remove my devices prior to deleting the home from my old account.

@yihbag 

Perhaps you should contact Google Nest Support; I can't tell exactly what you're doing, why you want to associate your Nest Aware subscription to a different account, or why you deleted the "home" before deleting the devices. And I don't know if you can add a Nest Aware subscription to an empty "home".

Still have not figured out how to purchase Nest Aware on my account.  I’ve deleted the home connected to my other account, created a new home with this account and added the cams to my new home, but I still cannot buy nest aware, so yes my problem is but resolved.

Hi yihbag,

 

Thanks for giving us an update on this. I appreciate your efforts. Let's check this out — what's the error message you received when signing up for your Nest Aware subscription?

 

Going over the steps here might help:

 

  1. Open the Google Home app. 
  2. Ensure that you're in the correct home structure where you want to get the Nest Aware for.
  3. Tap Settings > under Features, tap Nest Aware > at the bottom, tap Manage Subscription.
  4. Tap Subscribe.
  5. Tap the plan you want to get (Nest Aware or Nest Aware Plus) > tap Next.
  6. Choose your billing cycle (monthly or yearly) > tap Next.
  7. Review your payment information > tap Subscribe.

Let me know how it goes.

 

Best,

JT
