Setup Guide

1. Make sure you have the latest version of the Abode app installed. Open the app and tap the Menu icon.

2. Tap "Integrations" from the list.

3. Select "Google Nest" from the available integrations list.

4. Tap "Connect with Google Nest" and follow the prompts to sign in to your Nest account.

5. Follow the prompts to grant each device permission for access from within the Abode system.

6. Tap "Done" to return to the Abode app. Compatible Nest devices will now appear in your Devices tab and as triggers and conditions for CUE Automations where supported.

Removing Google Nest Devices from Abode

Because Google Nest devices are not directly paired with Abode, to remove individual devices go to Integrations, then Google Nest, then Manage Integrations, and turn off the permission for each device.

To remove all devices, use the Remove Integration button and follow the prompts.
