EDIT: Installed it using the Community appstore…

But I cannot get it to workand I think I followed the guide completely right. 2 times…

After the last step where I can login to my nest account, I try to to add my nest thermostat.

During the wizzard, I see really quick a screen “login to nest account” and than a screen: “Select the devices you want to add”, but nothing shows up. The list is empty. Than it says “no devices where found” and after searching again it says “Timed out after 30000ms.”

Under logs I enabled “enable oauth2 debug info” but there is nothing to see there… I’m using a Nest V3.

Also, it looks like I’m getting logged out from time to time, and I need to login again.

What am I doing wrong?

EDIT 2:

I finally could login in the wizzard itself, and after waiting a lot of time, the thermostat finally showed up!! Nice!!

Thanks a lot.

**EDIT 3:** When the Nest is in eco mode, and I want to change the temperature in a flow. Do I first have to change the HAVC status to auto? Or will the temperature change overules the HAVC mode…

Hi Marcl, sorry i missed your message to the board.

@1 and 2, Sometimes Google Cloud functions takes up time. Don´t know if you still have a piece of the log around that time.

@3, just change the temperature in the flow, it should change the thermostat mode to auto for you. So it indeed overrules the thermostat mode. HVAC is not setable, it is just something i report when it is changed by Nest.

They are combining old and new. Only want to do that as a last resort.

Love this app. Great job.

One question. Is it possible to play a google cloud url assistant speech on nest hello. So i can let nest hello speak a message when I’m not at home for example a delivery guy? I could do this with the “google service” app from homey. This would be perfect with a already great app.

@Pieter_Pessers The nest hello already has prebuilt responses and you can talk through the app. Not sure why you need it? Or you want it to be automatic? Which could be a security risk, anyone can ring the door and it will say nobody is home? 😛

That’s true that it has prebuild responses, but i would like my own response that could say that i’m not home to friends that is seen with homey’s life360 app when i’m not at home or to the delivery guy when i’m not at home. Like for instance to leave the package at the neighbour.

I have a Google Nest IQ Outdoor.  
I see the 3 alarms are triggered:

But the screenshots for those alarms (Last Motion, Last Person and Last Sound) are never updated?

I see what is happening. I am trying to limit the amount of requests i need to perform to the cloud to prevent rate limiting. I am now discarding events that happens within a second after a first one takes place. will need to change some of that code to make it work better.

Thanks for your feedback.

I did have screenshots. But they were a few days old.

Today I tried restarting the app and now have some recent screenshots.  
But not up to date with the “few minutes ago”-alarm-trigger.  
I think they are only updated once after restarting the app.
