NEST DETECT FEATURES

Quiet Open
When Nest Secure is set to Home and Guarding,  
you can use Quiet Open to open a door or window 
without the alarm going off  Press the button on the 
Nest Detect that you want to use  The light ring will 
turn green, and you’ll have 10 seconds to open it   
Your Detect will automatically re-arm when you  
close the door or window  
You can enable or disable Quiet Open in the Nest app’s 
Settings menu  Select Security then Security Levels 
Pathlight
When you walk by Nest Detect in the dark, Pathlight 
turns on to help light your way  Using Pathlight may 
decrease Nest Detect’s battery life, so you can change 
the brightness or turn it off with the Nest app 
Pathlight is off by default  You’ll need to turn it on with 
the Nest app in Nest Detect’s Settings menu 
Dog Pass
If you have a dog under 40 pounds (18 kg), you can turn 
on Reduced Motion Sensitivity with the Nest app to 
help prevent false alarms caused by your dog  
Tamper detection
If someone tampers with Nest Detect and removes it 
from the backplate, the Nest app will send you an alert 
to let you know  

Add more Nest Detects

You can have up to 30 Nest Detects (go to 
nest.com/howmany) in your home to look after doors, 
windows and rooms  Adding more is easy  Just use the 
Nest app to scan the QR code on your new Nest Detect 
to get started 

NEST TAG FEATURES

Home Entry Schedules
When you give a Nest Tag to someone you can also set 
a schedule for them, so people like your dog walker or 
cleaner can only come in during certain times 
Disabling Nest Tag
If you lose or misplace a Tag, you can disable it with the 
Nest app in the Settings menu  You can always re-enable 
your Tag later

your home  Use the Nest app to scan the QR code on a 
new Tag and assign it to anyone you like
