Nest Learning Thermostat and Nest Thermostat E |
A motion sensor detects movement in the room. Your thermostat also notes if you manually adjust the temperature on the device. Note: Google Nest Temperature Sensors don’t have activity sensors, so they can’t help with presence sensing.
|
| Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and Nest Thermostat |
A Soli sensor detects motion proximity and presence of nearby objects. The Nest Thermostat also notes if you manually adjust the temperature on the device. |
|
Nest Protect |
An occupancy sensor detects if someone is in the room. Note: To maximize battery life, battery powered Protects check in less often, but they can work with other Nest products to help improve presence sensing accuracy.

|
Google Nest speaker or display Google Nest Hub (2nd gen) |
