Nest heating

[Pablonest]

Hi 

my nest thermostat used to come on when I approached it. How do I get it to react when I’m near it? thanks

Hi Pablonest,

Thanks for reaching out and we're sorry for the delay.

You'll need to be within 3 feet or 1 meter to your Nest thermostat for the display to turn on. Also, your Google Nest thermostat adapts to how much activity there typically is in its location, and it measures the current light level to adjust when exactly it will turn on the display.

Check out Farsight settings and wake on approach settings on your Google Nest Thermostat. These are the two features of your Google Nest thermostat that allow automatic turn on of its display.

I hope it helps.

Best regards,

Ryan
