 The iPhone app however is unnecessarily cumbersome. The app is tapped and up comes a sign-in window. Once the account is recognized another window comes up to 'select thermostat.' Then after doing that you are finally given the thermostat window and its settings/readings

 Finally the app 'gives you permission' to change the temperature and you need to accept this by tapping another button.  All-in-all not a friendly app.

The Nest Learning Thermostat is a smart thermostat that learns your schedule and programs itself to help save energy. You can control it from anywhere with the Nest app, and it works with Alexa and Google Assistant so you can adjust the temperature with your voice. And it’s beautifully designed, with a big, bright display and metal finishes to suit any home’s style.

[1] Remote control and mobile notifications require working internet and Wi-Fi.
[2] Alerts can notify you of a potential issue with eligible HVAC systems. They’re meant to provide helpful information, not an endorsement, representation, or warranty of any kind about the health of your HVAC system. Alerts aren’t intended to replace a diagnosis by a qualified HVAC professional.
[3] Energy savings are not guaranteed and depend on energy usage, weather, and other factors.
[4] Voice control requires a compatible device, and working internet and Wi-Fi.
[5] Independent studies showed that Nest thermostats saved people an average of 10% to 12% on heating and 15% on cooling. Based on typical energy costs, we’ve estimated average savings of $131 to $145 a year. Individual savings are not guaranteed.

CR’s take: The Google Nest Learning Thermostat earns one of the top spots in our smart thermostat ratings. It rates Excellent for automating your heating/cooling and offers a wealth of smart features to enhance its functionality, including an occupancy sensor (so it can adjust the temperature based on whether people are in a room) and geofencing, which turns the temperature up or down when you leave home and return by tracking your smartphone’s location. One caveat: Our testers found that the manual controls aren’t the easiest to use.

 It connected fine before. I did not modify the network and none of the other dozen smart devices have had any issues connecting. I have a dedicated 2.4GHz network

 Wait, what? No, it didn't drop below the safety temperature, at which point it would automatically kick on. I also adjust the temperature before going to bed. Shouldn't have to if this thing is smart right? Well, better safe than sweaty.  To get around some of these issues I've adjusted the schedule

 The thermostat should be smart enough to stay on if I manually set the temperature using the app less than 15m ago.  I've woken up in a sweat twice because the thermostat decided to turn on the heat in the middle of the night. Wait, what? No, it didn't drop below the safety temperature, at which point it would automatically kick on. I also adjust the temperature before going to bed

 Here's where the dealbreaker comes in. After using this for about a month, it randomly decided to disconnect itself from the network. Annoying but ok, I'll just add it back right? WRONG. When I first installed it, I was able to connect it by leveraging the settings from the already connected Nest Protect units

This cannot be a top rated thermostat. I'm baffled.

Lame.  Google is stating support for 5 years after launch.   So could drop support for the 3rd Gen Nest Learning Thermostat at any time since it came out in 2015.

Google commits to supporting Nest smart home devices for 5 years

 This should, in theory, help you save some money by only turning on the heater/AC as needed. This learning mode can also be turned off entirely.  Sharing the thermostat's control unfortunately requires a Google Home app configuration to which you invite your family member to. You cannot share control via the Nest app itself

.  The thermostat learns from your habits and schedules and adjusts itself accordingly. This should, in theory, help you save some money by only turning on the heater/AC as needed. This learning mode can also be turned off entirely

 Google...  The thermostat learns from your habits and schedules and adjusts itself accordingly

 The Nest? "No problem", my brother told me.  So, I bought a Nest and sure enough, it works with just 2 wires. The app guides you on the installation: 1. Scan the QR code found on the thermostat with the app 2

VERY easy to install with step-by-step instructions. Some useful functions for AirBnB/Vacation homes

 This is a significant issue if you've been away for an extended period, as your house might actually be quite warm/cold when you arrive, but the Nest won't fire up until it "sees" you, meaning you don't walk into a comfy house, you walk into your threshold temperature and have to wait for the Nest to catch up. The motion sensor is also a big issue if you have an older home like mine, and the thermostat is tucked away at the end of a hall, instead of by the front door. Might be a non-issue to some, but be warned if your thermostat is in an out of the way location.  There IS an "early on" feature which lets you set a temperature and time ("I want it to be 75 degrees at 4:30pm"), and let it start heating or cooling your home a bit before that time depending on the ambient temperature

 So if I leave at 7am, and come home at 5 pm, I want the temperature a comfy 75-76 degrees in my home. The interim? Don't care, which is what I hoped the Nest would work on for me. Ideally, When I leave at 7 or so, it would start to dial back the AC/heat to a decent level, let's say the low 80s, so I could save money, then when it knows I'll be home around 5, it aims for heating/cooling the house back down to an acceptable level for me for when I walk in the door. This thing should be working at my house when I'm away to save me money by not heating or cooling an empty house for a few hours while I'm away, then kicking back on 30/60 minutes or so before I arrive so I walk in to a comfy house

  I was under the impression it would "learn" my schedule (as it advertises it does) and basically figure out that during the week, I work regular hours, as does my spouse. We leave the house within 15 minutes of each other, and arrive home pretty close together soon. So if I leave at 7am, and come home at 5 pm, I want the temperature a comfy 75-76 degrees in my home. The interim? Don't care, which is what I hoped the Nest would work on for me

 After that time, it will starts to let the AC/heat slide in the house to a temperature threshold you set to save energy. Then, it waits until it senses motion or sees your phone again to fire back up. This is a significant issue if you've been away for an extended period, as your house might actually be quite warm/cold when you arrive, but the Nest won't fire up until it "sees" you, meaning you don't walk into a comfy house, you walk into your threshold temperature and have to wait for the Nest to catch up. The motion sensor is also a big issue if you have an older home like mine, and the thermostat is tucked away at the end of a hall, instead of by the front door

Doesn't quiiiite do what you'd expect

 It does about 90% of what I want and expect. I did turn off the auto-movement sensing, a feature which turns on the display when the Nest senses movement, such as when you walk by. The problem was that it was turning on in the middle of the night when I went to the bathroom and lighting up the bedroom. You can turn off auto-movement and instead activate it by a momentary push, but in the push mode, it doesn't appear that you can customize what is displayed, such as the current temp, the programmed temp, or a short weather analysis

 It's not the perfect way to control temperature throughout my house, since the master bedroom where the Nest is located will be over-cooled, but it's only a few degrees difference.

 I programmed the Nest to use the remote sensor in my son's room in the morning when his room heats up due to its south-eastern exposure. Now his room is comfortable in the morning. It's not the perfect way to control temperature throughout my house, since the master bedroom where the Nest is located will be over-cooled, but it's only a few degrees difference.

Great design and intuitive user interface.

We wanted to add something to look nice in the house as well as be easy to control while we’re gone for our animals as well as cost savings and so far it has been great.  Install was easy and simple and no issues so far as far as we know!
