This company needs to provide a handy guide book. Especially for seniors where many do not use computers. It's nuts!

The video itself was good. The only thing I would change is to define what an eco temperature is. The main complaints below were about the complexity of the Nest system. This seems to be a recurring issue that companies have not figured out in general. Systems need to have TWO operating modes. One is the feature rich mode for those who like to control every detail. This thermostat does very well in that arena. There also needs to be a Simple Use mode. As one gentleman wrote...when you have to go online to figure it out you know convenience of high tech has gone out the window. Thermostats are one thing that everyone will use, from young to elderly. And many people also just want simple as they have simple routines in life. My air conditioning repairman was quite familiar with seeing these, but had no idea how to set it. So they are NOT intuitive. So this is what you do, NEST. 1. Survey 100-500 people who want a simple mode as to what are the main features are they want. Then make a simple mode of maybe 3-4 features. Make it INTUITIVE....which plainly means, you can easily figure it out by just looking at it. Then again, after you design it, have another 500 people try it with NO instructions. If 80% of the people can do it with ease, you are good. If not, back to the drawing board. You MUST test it on people who have never seen it before. And for god sakes, include some simple directions on a piece of paper in good simple English. These black and white drawings without words are just as bad as the translations into English we used to get back in the 80s of Japanese products.

A one-page "Quick Start" guide should have come with it.

In 6 minutes, you taught me more than what my kids could teach me in 6 hours!

I just upgrafe my thermostat yesterday with this device and I am so glad that I did become I don't have to worry to having to turn on or off the AC.

I actually moved into a house with a nest thermostat and I hate it. It feels like it has a mind of its own no matter how much I mess with it. I’m fairly tech savvy but I much prefer a “regular ole thermostat.” I feel like the learning technology is on beneficial to those who live in an area with consistent weather. I live in the Midwest. One day it’s cold another it’s hot, so just because I turn town the temp in the evening one night does not mean I need it doing that every night.

This nest learning thermostat right now is the pits. It does what it wants. It changes to eco when I am home. Might have to return to a regularnthermo

Thanks for the info. I just installed mine today after having it for 6 months, lol. I love it, as long as it doesn't break down on me fast or whatever I'll be a happy camper.

This did not show HOW TO GET THE APP or how to set up the thermostat with my new (NEVER HAD OR USED ONE BEFORE) smart phone. And how do I keep the thermostat from switching to cool down after the room meets the targeted warm-up temperature?

Another way to collect more information from your smart home.

I let mine do as it wishes. I think of it as a HAL 9000, home edition.

Nice video. Easy to understand. I finally set my heat schedule so I won't be cold getting out of bed in the morning.

Thank you!! That was very helpful. Our nest keeps going down to 72. I can’t figure out why. But i will be going to figure it out!!

I've had my nest thermostat for 4 years and it works great 😊

I had a very simple one before which worked perfect. I was mad when my husband brought this one home. It is very fancy but hard to use! For example, I set the temp to 23, it is going back to 24-25 and it does not heat then. Before it was heating every 15 mins. I looked everywhere but can't find any clue how it works. Technology is getting more complex! UPDATE I have figured it out recently. I turned off home away assist option. Now it works as it is supposed to be!!

If you schedule your heating to come on at 7:00pm for example, how long is it on for? Or how do you set a time for when you’d like the heating to turn off?? I understand how to schedule the heating, but do not understand how long it will be scheduled for. Shouldn’t be this difficult. PLEASE HELP! getting so frustrated with this thermostat.

Will it control furnace blower ON/OFF? My humidifier is mist kind and requires heat and blower working together with humidifier. My humidifier also requires furnace blower to work a couple minutes after humidifier switches off automatically to distribute all the moisture collected in the duct. If blower stops the same time with mist humidifier moisture still will sit inside plenum and makes it rust. Will this Humidifier Control have this setting so furnace blower work few minutes after humidifier switched off??

Well done. Clear and concise explanation.

i have a question if i wanted the temperature at 21c at 17.00 until 19.00 then do i add a separate schedule for each time? so after 20:00 it will turn off?

I don't know about easy to use. No book that tells you what the functions are.

If I want in automatic mode, how I do that?

Hi. It does controls individuals machines(evaporator)?

Im getting dry eyes looking at this video. Good video tough

If only it was this easy. On my Nest thermostat, I set it to 81, but it cools to 77. When I set to 77 it changes to 81. It has been a nightmare. I've never wanted a regular thermostat so badly.

How can you tell what temperature it is in the room prior to any heat or air coming on? Need to know where that is displayed. ASAP

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾To this video and you KZfaq ♥❤❤!!! You BOTH COOLED my WORK SHIFT🥵🚫🥶👍🏾😁😷😎#KeepDoinWhaChaDoin

since we had a thunder storm last night the room temp is off by 10 degrees

Mine is set to heat at 23 degrees...is that too low for a cold country like Canada?

Why does it lower the temperature by its self

I hate the home away assist so much. It was the selling point for me… however, If I don’t leave my room it thinks there’s no one home and I’m in here sweating wondering if the air is on. Then when I actually leave I guess it somehow knows I’m gone and when I get home the house is an oven! It then takes 1 hour to cool the home. One day I had a headache (which I never get) then I realized it’s cuz I came home to a freakin oven. I’m starting to wish I had my old thermostat back!

Yes but does it auto turn off when it hits a certain temperature? My one now from the 90s does that if I have it set for 75 once it hits 75 in the room I let turns off until it gets Above 75 again

What's the name of the song in the back round it sounds like my grandma's house.

How do I set the hot water for everyday use.

Do you have to buy 3 for each floor?

Wish this thing will just stay at the temp I want . This thing always turning the temp up when I don’t want it to smh

This device sucks I think I can hold my own with technology but I’ve called this thing more 4 letter words than any other device

Is there a way to reset and start over with the schedule temperature changes? We just moved into a rental and the previous tenant have changes in temperature every two hours. If possible can you do it via phone and on the nest itself?

How do you set the date and time?

Hi just got the Nest learning thermostat (heat only) installed 4 days ago. Set-up appears to have gone ok but now receiving message Offline Thermostat doesn't have enough power for WI-FI. Before that it just seem to have set crazy temperatures all by itself. Any help/advice you can give is appreciated.

Help I still don’t m ow how to use this thing for the cool air it’s driving me nuts. How can I get some cool air in my place?

My city just installed a Nest pro free of charge for me! Finally, I approve of the use of my tax money!

To unreliable even when installed by nest them self. Going back to system that I had before..

I use my nest with Alexa, when I set the nest to say 65. after a while the temp changes & have to keep changing the temp back... do u know y???

Every time I hit heat it goes back to off! It’s freezing in my home!

Away mode turns off ac? I'm going 3 days away from home...and I want it to be off....do i select away mode?

On the main screen it shows two white bars for upper and lower temperature in a circle. Why can 't I change that upper bar? What is that about. This decrepit device is difficult to use.

does the app or the actual thermostat override one over the other

that system is not intuitive, wow. I have a honeywell wifi smart thermostat and I was looking at this as a possible upgrade but wow, thank God for my honeywell.

Still don't understand why would 5he setpoint be displayed in big numbers instead of the ambiente temperature like most....

How do I install it to my central AC? Or does it only connect to wifi AC?

Christian, Nice job on this tutorial, but I did get this info I needed. I bought a Nest Learning Thermostat and installed it with no problems. I installed the Nest App to my Samsung Galaxy A20 with no problems. My wife has the same phone as I do, but I cannot get the Nest App to connect to the Nest Thermostat. Her phone will not see the needed Key Code to input in order to connect to the thermostat. Any suggestions?

My nest keeps going back to 68 which I did not set. I have to manually increase the temp to 73. I liked my old thermostat because I would click on hold and it would stay there. I am thinking of changing back to my old one because the thermostat goes by the room temp. How can I fix this nest problem?

What song are you playing?

Why is mine set to 16 but to heat I have to turn it to 18 why does it not maintain the heat at 16

My nest is driving me crazy. I cannot for the lifeof me get the AC to turn on. It only gives me the option for heat.

how do i put it in auto mode

I hate this device that was installed by my building. I have no idea how it works . No booklet came with it. Now I am forced to endure cold air when I don’t want it. It is driving me crazy. I have no f-- control.Aaaaarrrrrgggg

This video was not helpful to learn how to just set the temperature or know if the fan is running or not. I agree with comments below that Nest is not a user friendly device. I recommend getting the ecobee thermostat instead which has a touch screen and basic menu to navigate. Also, it has clear icons to on the main screen to show if it's cooling or heating without having to scroll around.

So, no info on how to turn the ac on.

Does this work with Samsung smart things?

Do u keep fan on always or what setting should fan be on? 🤔

Wheres the non programmable smart tstats

jus moved into a home w/1 of them an never new how it worked till now.jus hope i can remmber this later.lol

How do I connect my phone to nest so I can control it via the app?

But how do I turn it on

this doesn't seem to work well.

I have to keep setting the temp back to 74 at least 20 times a day. How do I set it to one temp and let it stay there. We are seldom not in the house. Very irritating I would never buy one again. HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLP

The music is too loud and interferes hearing you.

Do not buy this product from the Google store. It didn't work when I got it so they sent me a replacement and that one didn't work either. After trying to get a 3rd device that never came I decided to ask for a refund. Google told me that I was outside of the return window even though I reported the issue within the window. Now I have a device that doesn't work and I can't get my money back. Get if from best buy or some other store that will actually let you return your device if you still want to test your luck if it will work for you.

This is so sad my mom got this so that I can’t change the temperature

I have a lot of nests

I can’t find how to turn it off, it’s so annoying

I have a question, let’s say I set it 20 degrees on cold mode, then I set it 15 still on Cold mode. Which one is warmer, 20 or 15? Does it get cooler as I go up or down?

This is easily the epitome of stupid smart devices. I reset all of it and turned off the auto learn function. Now it finally stops screwing up the house temperature, because after 3 years it still had no idea what temperature to set and when. No video or google instruction had any useful help, except one about how to disable the auto learn function. It does not learn. That's the issue.

I'm still trying figure out how to change from heat to ac🤬😭🤣

Over music 🤯

Music is annoying under this video. I just want to turn off the thermostat.

The music is annoying

I really really dislike the nest. My son talked me into buying it. Regret this purchase. My old thermostat was just fine!

Really dislike this thermostat. Basic instructions would be nice. Would never have had it installed but Tesla installed it when we go solar & the instructions promised never materialized

what is that music!? It's making my ears hurt!

So it’s basically a smart thermostat like the ones that come with hoax units??? Setting weekly programs for heat, fans or cool??? $250?? No thanks

Didn't help me at all, way too difficult for just coolin the house down.

Why is this dude looking above the camera. Makes me uncomfortable 😅

I hate this thermostat

Why painfully stutter through a teleprompter in order to show your face when you could just show your hand, nest, and phone? So distracting and entirely unnecessary.

So is David a Christian or is he a Firsty Firsty?

A joke . It blew up my furnace and costed me a lot of money in repair bills .

10/10 don’t recommend nest

The worst i do not recommend this crap to no one so much extra things to do when it should be simple

This thermostat is really annoying

Music sucks wtf

You talk too fast and when you show distinctive points about the nest, you should slow that down as well. I had to rewind several times. Thank you though for the video.

I hate this!

This thermostat is a pain in my ass! It’s not user friendly.

Not at all helpful!

I don’t like it just heating I like heating cooling and heat • cool

How do you make the fan blow out the air?
