Nest Pricing
The Nest Aware subscription for Nest Cams starts at $8 per month. If you choose to pay for a year upfront, it will cost you $80 a year. There is also a Plus account which costs $150 for a yearly subscription. These subscriptions offer more video history, smart alerts, and other useful household features. Please note that when you cancel a Nest Aware subscription, you'll lose your sound detection clips and any video you haven't saved. So, it's recommended to save important clips before cancelling. Also, the 1st gen Nest Aware subscriptions will no longer be available for purchase after July 13, 2023. Any subscriptions that you currently have will continue to renew. For continued coverage, it's suggested to subscribe to the latest Nest Aware.

Nest Return Policy?
The return policy for Nest devices is as follows:
If not satisfied with a Nest device, it can be returned. Before returning, it's important to perform a factory reset on the device. This clears any data from the device. To return the device for a refund, the refund policy and return steps of the retailer it was bought from should be reviewed. If the device was purchased from the Google Store, there are specific instructions on how to return a device for a refund. If the device was purchased from a different retailer, their website should be checked or they should be contacted for return information.
In terms of warranty, Nest Labs warrants that the enclosed Nest-branded product will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year (if the Product is a Nest Thermostat E or a Nest Temperature Sensor) or two years (for any other Product) from the date of delivery following the original retail purchase.
If the original purchaser of the Product is not satisfied for any reason, it can be returned in its original condition within thirty days of the original purchase for a full refund.
