The user reports that after updating to the new AI-powered Google Home version, the app repeatedly detects them as “Away” even while they are at home. This causes routines to trigger incorrectly, such as turning on the Nest Camera and turning off heating. Presence sensing is set to use both phone location and home Wi-Fi, and although it correctly detected “Home” earlier in the day, it switched back to “Away” only minutes later despite the user being inside the house. The issue involves inconsistent presence detection affecting a Nest Camera Battery and a Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd gen).
