i contacted athom. and they are saying that the won`t make a new app at the moment. they say google has extreme demandsā¦
Hi Wesley,
Bedankt dat je opnieuw contact met ons hebt opgenomen.
Helaas is het voor ons op dit moment niet haalbaar om de Google Nest API te integreren in een (nieuwe) app, voornamelijk door de extreme eisen die Google stelt.
Mocht de situatie in de toekomst beter worden zullen we hier natuurlijk snel naar kijken, we willen namelijk graag de Nest apparaten ondersteunen!
Ik ga er vanuit dat je vraag hiermee is beantwoord, daarom sluit ik nu je ticket. Mocht je aanvullende support nodig hebben kun je je ticket heropenen door te antwoorden op deze email.
Ik wens je een fijne dag en veel plezier met Homey!
Met vriendelijke groet,

Strange that Homey does not see it as feasible and [Alarm.com](http://Alarm.com), Control4, DISH, OhmConnect, NRG Energy, and Vivint Smart Home all did

Maybe the individual program can be an outcome if Homey cannot or wiil not comply tot the commercial program
What is Individual access? How is it different from Commercial access?
Individual Access is for smart home enthusiasts to participate in Device Access. This allows you to directly control your own Nest devices for your private integrations up to a certain number of users and without a formal review process. It also provides partners with a chance to test their integrations before they submit for Commercial access. Commercial access opens up the integration to a wider audience and requires a complete review process, including an annual security assessment.
## Works with Nest had a sandbox for personal integrations. Can I do that with Device Access?
Yes, in the Device Access for Individuals sandbox you can directly control your own Nest devices for your private integrations and automations. These smaller integrations do not require a security audit or review, and have a limited number of allowed users.
If you would like more information, see the [Device Access site](http://developers.google.com/nest/device-access).

Still hoping for a good app. Still have badnest on home assistant but an app in homey would be better.

Indeed an app where you could fill in your personal api key would be sufficient no commercial license needed then.
With current list of devices are not the Nest Protects unfortunately. These are the ones I have from Nest. (luckily the old app still works for me).

Did check the developers site. Payed 5 usd to get the developer accessā¦ Looked around and was completely overwhelmed.

This probably has a lot do with google wanting all the data and information from users. The stuff they decided to revoke access to for those users and third parties via an API. āDo no evilā, itās a joke.

Just have patience, I guess Ifttt will include Nest in no time again. Its sad to see Google making a moneygrab of everything lately. You already spend ā¬300 on a thermostat and now they also ask $5 for using the apiā¦ Thats evil

Ifttt is not a great option anymore. Also a paid model at the moment. But ifttt makes it available soon we know that it will work

I keep a close watch on the thread at the Home Assistant community. I think they also are very interested in the latest developments
