@jennine76 and you connect via ifttt? If yes, do you see the detector in the smartthings app like normal zwave device?

No IFTTT, directly to wifi and using a device handler in Smartthings

@jennine76 if you dont already have Nest connected you cant. Google killed the Works with Nest API. (and if you do have it connected dont change ANYTHING else it wont continue to be connected. )

@anatolia7046 what you suggest? Can you connect nest app to smartthings?  
by (15.3k points)
@orff92409 no you can't not without very unsupported workarounds that may disappear at any moment. I personally wouldn't use them.

@anatolia7046 good but do you use smoke detector in your home connect to smartthings?  
by (15.3k points)
@orff92409 yes, Nest but I've had them connected for almost two years. Like I said if it was connected prior it still works, you can't connect new. If there was an alternative that had the same features I would have already moved. Google has absolutely trashed the interoperability of Nest devices.
