Got a nest thermostat 4th gen, won’t let me set it up in Nest App

Got a nest thermostat 4th gen, won’t let me set it up in Nest App.  I set it up in G home, but nest app is not seeing it there.

i was able to control the thermostat (on 2nd gen) using my Apple Watch previously, but now since the nest app is not seeing the new thermostat, I cannot use the watch.

Question: 1) how do I control the thermostat on my Apple Watch now?  I looked for the google home app on the App Store for my watch but no luck.  The nest app only supports 1st to 3rd gen.

2) since I have 2 thermostats, downstairs and upstairs, how can I build a dashboard in google home for both on one screen without having to select upstairs or downstairs?  This was similar to how the nest app did it - had to select upstairs or downstairs to see the thermostat 

3) any plans for the 4th gen thermostat support in the nest app?

 The 4th Gen only works with the Google Home App.

The Nest app at some point will be retired.

Thank You.

Is there a 3rd party app that will let me control the thermostats?
