Just installed nest learning thermostat. Husband and I want to share responsibility for tracking and making changes. Can we both use our google accounts to have equal access to the thermostat on our phones?

thanks in advance for any help!

Good afternoon Seacoff!

 

You should be able to share responsibility by adding a Family Member.  While this shows in the "Settings" on the Nest App, it ends up redirecting you to the Google Home App where you can set up your home and manage family members.

If you do not have the Google Home App already, download it onto your device.  Once you get your Google Account set up, and a Home created, there will be a "+" button to the top left, and the second option should allow you to Invite a home member.


Hope this helps!
