Nest Guard Custom App

Is it possible that to build a customer app just so that way a person can continue using guard in the way that was not using a security company but just using your own Wi-Fi for letting you know if an alarm goes off?

Like if they're not using it anymore can they release if it's got any locks on it or whatever so people can design their own app for it? I know that they released the controllers for stadia so that way they're able to be utilized with Bluetooth, I'm wondering if they could do the same thing or if it's already where you could hook into it somehow and reverse engineer it to work again with just a custom app that allowed you to arm or disarm and that's it type thing?

I have been using it here in Canada for the last few years so I didn't have access to the security company it was all just through the Wi-Fi and the app. So, as long as a person could create an app and have it be able to go through Wi-Fi and connect to guard then that's all I really need. I'm just wondering if it's possible?

Short answer is no I'm afraid, Google hasn't made anything like that a possible path forward.
