If I buy a google nest hub, can I have a certain nest cam automatically come on screen if it detects movement? Like as a baby monitor?

@claiborn Damn. But thank you. I have Alexa all though my house and can’t do it on the Echo screens either. Was hoping with it being a google product they’d have other options.

You can with Alexa and Ring. Google is the worst at playing nice with others.

You can set up through different notification apps on android, I did it with my nest camera and an app called notification listener, with some clever work arounds it pops up a live view on my home wall tablet when any motion is detected, one draw back though, it will trigger and open with every motion as well as create a little lag between response times, there was a youtube video on how to do it

@silica Can you do this on an Echo Show that you’re aware of?
