Nestcam live feed automatically on the nesthub2 without a voice command

Hi,

is it possible that the nestcam  automatically starts a live feed on the nesthub  when a movement is detected without 

a voice command being necessary?

Hi pete86,

 

Thanks for visiting the Community.

 

I appreciate your thoughts about this, however this feature is not available on Google Nest displays. To further answer your questions regarding movement or motion detection, you may refer to this info.

 

Your camera runs algorithms to process video and audio data so it can determine whether it detected something you might want to know about.

  • The camera is designed to analyze its video data for people, animals, and moving vehicles, and can recognize when the same people reappear.
  • To detect anything besides a person, animal, or moving vehicle, the camera checks for general motion in the scene. It learns what's normally in its background view and looks for movement and changes. As a result, it can sometimes trigger not just for important things, but also for minor things like tree branches that sway in the wind. If you only need your camera to detect people, animals, or moving vehicles, it's recommended that you do not turn on this feature.

You can find a list of all available alerts for your device in the What you get with a Nest Aware subscription article.

To change detection settings:

With the Home app

  1. Open the Google Home app Google Home app.
  2. Tap Favorites or Devices .
  3. Tap and hold your device's tile More More menu Settings .
  4. Tap Event.

With the Nest app

Note: You can only turn off notifications for specific camera events.

  1. Open the Nest app.
  2. Select your camera or doorbell.
  3. Tap Settings Nest settings icon Notifications.

Hope this helps.

 

Best,

Princess

Hi Princess,

thank you very much for your detailed and quick response. I wonder if it might be possible to get the nestcam to automatically send a live feed to the nesthub via a foreign app.

Kind regards,

Peter
