Nest introduces Home/Away Assist.
We've wanted to add geofencing into the Nest app for a while now. But we also wanted to do it right. And better. So we’re combining sensor data, algorithms and the location of up to 10 phones to figure out when the house is full or empty and automatically do the right thing. Introducing Home/Away Assist: http://bit.ly/1U56WcO
With Home/Away Assist, Nest Cam can automatically turn on when you leave and off when you walk in the door. Your Nest Thermostat can turn the heat on as soon as your walk through the door. Your Nest Protect can more confidently run its monthly Sound Check while you’re out. And Works with Nest products can use Home/Away Assist to work better too.
To start using Home/Away Assist and Family Accounts, simply download the latest update of the Nest app.
