Q: Does this work with the Nest app?
A: No only the Google Home app not the Nest app. See Overview and Features above
A: The new Nest Doorbell (2nd gen, wired) needs to be powered by wires delivering 16 - 24 V AC, and at least 10 VA (in North America) or 12 - 24 V AC and at least 8 VA (in Europe). While the Nest doorbell can replace most wired doorbells, there are some cases where the doorbell system, including doorbell wires, either doesn’t give enough power or gives too much power. In some homes, you may need to upgrade your transformer to meet the doorbell's higher power requirements. However, some doorbell systems are incompatible like a traditional doorbell system that uses very little power, so it’s important to make sure that the wires and transformer (power supply) meets the required amount of power so the doorbell can record videos.
A: it will ring on the same chime box. the google home app allows you to label locations of your doorbells so you will only need the one app. Just label the locations of the doorbell and it will show them both on the app.
A: Great question. Most mechanical chimes should be compatible with the Nest doorbell wired 2nd gen. Make sure you have connected the chime connector if it’s required. Without the chime connector, you might experience chime buzzing or unexpected chimes. Here’s a like with more details: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9247132
A: I found an extnsion piece online that allowed me to mount the doorbell in the existing space with the existing wiring. The extension piece fit in the 1 inch space that I had also.
A: Unplug your wifi and replug or delete your door bell from your google account then reinstall.
Q: hello, can the doorbell work on Lima, Peru?
A: Hi, pette! Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen) isn't supported in Peru. It may or may not work. Google Nest devices are optimized to work best with specific Wi-Fi standards, depending on where they are sold and designed for. If you choose to export a device from a supported country to a non-supported country, it may experience low performance, may not work as expected, and it may not comply with regulations in the country you've exported it to. It can also cause compatibility issues as availability and performance of certain features, services, and applications are device and network dependent.
A: Your best bet would be to install a block of wood that the doorbell could be mounted to. You can rotate the picture 180 degrees but not 90 degrees for horizontal mounting. Do you currently have a doorbell install on the home? If not, the battery powered model would be a better option.

Doorbell Camera experience
Yes yes yes. This door bell is soooooo nice. The app set up is with google so make sure that you create an account. But let me tell you, I see everything!!! I have a piece of mind now and don’t have to go look and see who is at my door. Definitely a homeowners must have. Eventually you will need a subscription to view activity that your camera catches but it is worth it. The sound quality, night vision, and video quality are all really good.

Quality Doorbell; Easily Connects to Wifi
I replaced a Skybell video doorbell with the Nest doorbell and couldn't be happier. It was easy to install and program with our Nest display and speakers. Unlike the Skybell, this doorbell easily connects to Wifi and easily reconnects after Wifi is restored. The video quality and sound are good. I used the included wedge to angle the doorbell toward the street, which provides a better viewing area. You will need a Nest Aware account for $80 a year to save doorbell video. It's not a deal breaker for me, but I can see why it might be for some.
