I have an older model of the nest doorbell.  The downside is that it has its own app for managing it and reviewing video.  It doesn't work with the other nest cameras.  The upside is that you can set a separate audio notification just for the doorbell. 

I don't know but I'm guessing the newer nest doorbells probably work with their other cameras which means that there is only one audio notification for all of the cameras and it's the default notification for the phone.  I've suggested to the nest support team that each camera should have a user selected notification sound, including the new doorbell.

Hi folks,

 

Checking in — have you tried the suggested steps shared by MplsCustomer? If so, how did it go?

If you're getting email notifications from your doorbell, then you must have a Google Nest Hello Doorbell (and not the "Nest Doorbell (battery)" indicated in your post), because email notifications are only available for cameras in the Google Nest app (https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9210305?hl=en#zippy=%2Chome-app-notifications%2Ctypes-o...).

Go to your doorbell in the Google Nest app, select Settings | Notifications | Notification Type, and turn off "Email" and turn on "Push notification" to get notifications on your phone.  See the screen shot below:

Hey there,

 

I'm sorry for the delay. Here's how to enable different notifications of your camera in the Home app:

  1. Open the Google Home app .
  2. Tap Settings Settings.
  3. Select Notifications .
  4. Choose the item they want to change > tap the Toggle to turn the notification on or off.

Let me know how it goes.

 

Best,

JT
