Hi, I have over the last 36 hours been having issues with the nest cam monitoring on my Hub Max. I currently pay for the subscription for the 30 day video recording history.
Every minute or so, the display will show the notification "Nest Cam Monitoring Off" and then a few brief seconds later will show "Nest Cam Monitoring". The green camera light also turns off during this period. I'm not sure it's internet-related as the monitoring should continue if it disconnects (and I'm pretty sure our wifi doesn't drop out every minute). I am concerned that someone else has logged into my camera and is constantly viewing footage?…is this possible or is it just the unit malfunctioning?
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Muddi
Thanks for the response. FYI regarding your instructions; there is no "About Device" on the Max Hub, it's "Device Information" -> "Technical Information" ->"Software version"
Mine is 49.57.36.477782712
Fuchsia version is 8.20220713.2.19.4059

Same problem, same version of code, please fix!
01-17-2023 04:53 AM
Factory reset by pressing and holding down the up and down volume buttons at the same time for 10 seconds. You'll then have to Follow the instructions to set it back up but it should take care of the issue I'm
02-04-2023 01:31 PM
Worked...for a week, then same glitch!
06-28-2023 04:04 PM
This only works temporarily. I have factory reset my hub max about four times now.
02-10-2023 06:15 PM
This issue is still persistent and has been brought up to Google technical support as a known issue but it's been months and the device is still not working along with everyone else and if we're paying for the $12 home monitoring is Google going to refund all the months in which service was not able to be provided?

Hello Muddi, I am currently running the 9.2021010.3.176 fuchsia version I am experiencing the same issues. What is the remedy for this?
02-22-2023 03:18 AM
This is only a temporary work around as the issue comes back after about a week. Reported in a parallel thread.
It also means, I believe, you lose camera footage.
This really needs to be resolved quickly as it is rendering the camera useless a I can't use it while "camera monitoring is off" (is what the display notification reads)
03-18-2023 08:49 AM
I have same problem tried everything with no success.
03-18-2023 04:58 PM
Hi Muddi,
I can confirm i am Running Fuschai Version and am experiencing the same issue, I have sent feedback as requested. Please can you advise the next steps on resolving this issue?
03-23-2023 06:42 PM
SAME ISSUE, CAMERA KEEPS TURNING ITSELF OFF ALL DAY EVERY DAY! I HAVE FACTORY RESET IT MULTIPLE TIMES SAME ISSUE! FIRMWARE IS UP TO DATE! WHAT IS GOOGLE'S PROBLEM? WE ALL NEED A REFUND FOR THESE DEVICES AND SERVICES FOR THESE ONGOING ISSUES AND I HAVE 2 HUB NEST. HOW DO WE GET REFUNDED BECAUSE ENOUGH IS ENOUGH?
03-27-2023 08:14 AM
Factory reset and re-configure does not fix the issue. Can confirm I'm still getting it.
03-27-2023 11:27 AM
Ive tried everything still not working this all started with an update
All was ok before that.
01-12-2023 08:51 AM
I’ve never really had any issues with this device until a few weeks ago. It constantly pops a notification for “Nest cam monitoring off” and then will pop up “Nest cam monitoring” immediately after. The app itself is not logging video. The device works just fine otherwise with no internet connectivity issues. I tried a factory reset and set it back up which seemed to fix it temporarily… but now it’s right back to this. Any ideas on how to fix or should I just switch to another manufacturer?

If you unplug it... then plug it back in... it generally fixes it for a while until you have to do it again. Super annoying and not very good tech, but it's the workaround that we've been using.

The issues are continuing It's been almost a year and even with sending the content to Google nothing gets fixed after temporary resets and reboots and all the troubleshooting the same issues resolved by going into the platforms and saying that the answer is somewhere is not working.
04-06-2023 04:38 AM
04-06-2023 08:56 AM
@Frank1e Unfortunately this isnt the solution. Doesnt work... we need answers and a fix from Google.
04-06-2023 10:21 AM
Have you tried it ? Ive done everything possible so hoping this works.
04-06-2023 11:20 AM
Yep, went thru it all and in the same spot still
06-21-2023 06:40 AM
I've tried this and it doesn't work unfortunately
04-04-2023 04:27 PM
This has been going on for far too long and I have continued to send the reports there is only been temporary patches at work maybe 5 to 6 hours before it starts doing the same issue again.
04-04-2023 04:33 PM
1000% here. Its been crickets from Google about this and its affecting a ton of customers. This has rendered my nest cam on my hub max completely useless which is the primary reason we bought it for our kitchen. What else can we do here to get some traction? I'm all ears... its insane that its been this long with no fix... let alone a response about whats being done.
04-19-2023 06:37 PM
My household has been having this problem for months. I did the send feedback GHT3 thing. My google heard it as "ght 3 Nest cam monitoring" though. Please fix this, it is really scaring my family.
04-28-2023 08:26 AM
@Muddi Can we PLEASE get a response here with an update on when this will be fixed? Its been many months now and my kitchen cam via hub max is completely out of commission due to this bug. much appreciated!
04-28-2023 12:52 PM
I have the same issue. I did factory reset and now I cannot set the camera up at all. Google hub max is set up but camera doesn’t not work at all now.
04-28-2023 01:07 PM
Yep, if i hard reboot the hub max, the camera still doesnt work (while the monitoring banner comes on/off constantly)... then after a few hours the monitoring banner next comes on and still left in the dark with no access to the cam. PLEASE UPDATE US GOOGLE... this is outrageous.
04-29-2023 09:54 AM
Hi ive just got a new problem when i use my hub max as a photo frame it freezes most annoying.
04-30-2023 04:47 AM
I'm having this issue now, when will it get fixed??!!
04-30-2023 11:33 PM
Essy answer no.
04-30-2023 08:32 AM
Hey Muddi.
It's happening again. Is there any possible way that people's concerns can be addressed? This is quite a frustrating user experience. And my family and I are awaiting answers....
05-06-2023 07:35 AM
What is the resolution to the problem on my nest hub and too many threads on the topic with no real resolution.
05-06-2023 08:03 AM
The only way to fix the problem is to never buy any Google product ever. It's too much of a mess.
05-06-2023 12:06 PM
This latest bug is a big mess not getting anywhere with it after 3 months.
