We need 10-15 testers to help identify any bugs that may exist in the new Nest App and Device Types and provide some feedback.

Advantages

  • Able to add multiples devices from a single SmartApp
  • No need to many enter device serial number and login info in preferences
  • No need to use Polling apps for device updates
  • One API call updates all Nest devices
  • Since there is only a single poll for all devices, updates are more often

Disadvantages

  • The info available through the Official API is very limited compared to the hacked version currently available.

If your interested please send me a private PM

Looking very nice indeed

Alright everyone thanks for the responses. Iā€™ve reached enough testers for now and if no major arrise I will open to more people.
Iā€™m just making a few last minute modifications to the app and making sure I can put as much info into the readme as I can. I will send something out later today.

Iā€™m just reset my entire hub and Iā€™m adding devices. With 7 that protects I would love to get this versus putting them in Manually.

i have 1 nest thermostat and 2 protects if you need another tester.

Thanks for the requests. We are trying to get a couple minor issues resolved and then I will add in some more users. Hopefully in the next day or two.

13

Let me know! I have two nest thermostats and would love to give this a try!

14

Thanks for your interest.
Iā€™ve been trying to track down a bug causing issues which was hopefully just fixed. Once I get verification that it works and is working stable I will begin adding in more people.

15

Iā€™m really intersted! i have a nest protect and 3 cams. Will be getting a thermostat soon too! Im really hoping for integration since other cameras arent that great that actually utilize zwave or zigbee

16

Unfortunately it wonā€™t support cams. Because thatā€™s difficult to integrate with ST and I donā€™t have any to test with

17

Just wanted to drop in and say thank you for your work @tonesto7 but not only that, this is an insanely professional looking SmartApp. If SmartThings/Nest can ever work things out to provide official integration, theyā€™d do well to just use this.

I have a Nest Thermostat and at some point will get Protects around the house, I cannot wait for your official release.

When you say, ā€œNo need to use Polling apps for device updatesā€ does that mean changes in temp, humid, and adjustments made to set temp are all pushed real time? I have some keen home vents that are itching for such a solution for the nestā€¦ Thanks!

The App handles all commands and polling removing the need for polling apps

Unfortunately the limitations ST has in place donā€™t allow real-time incoming events. The only way to make that work is with a self-hosted in between server to relay data to a Web Endpoint

The handles all commands and polling
