If you seem to have the need to frequently turn streaming for your Nest Cameras back on, you may have the Home Away/Assist Feature activated. This Feature will automatically toggle your nest cameras On/Off depending if you are home or not.
To configure set your cameras to always stream, follow the steps below:
- Go to the Settings menu in the nest App.
- Select Home/Away Assist.
- Select Either Home or Away and you'll see a list of all your Nest products, including what their current behaviour is set to when you are at home or away from home.
- To have the cameras streaming permanently, you can select On in either menu for every device that you want to follow this rule.
- Unless you manually change your status, Nest cameras only use your phone's location to determine if you are currently home or away.
