Pretty simple question. Apple and Google do a lousy job of making it easy to even get an answer to this question!

Unfortunately, the Nest app for AppleTV only supports the old Nest accounts. If you’ve migrated over to google accounts that nest app will not work on Google TV and majority of everyone that is connected to the Google nest ecosystem is currently using the new google account so this message will not work for the new Google nest cameras that use the Google Home app

Hello JWPNJ,
Thank you for posting to the Apple Support Communities.
You can find a list of accessories that are compatible with the Home app in the following Apple Support article: Home app - Accessories. Nest cameras are not on this list, but they appear to have their own app that you can install on compatible Apple TV devices. Check out Nest on the App Store.
You may also consider contacting the Nest camera manufacture support team for more help with linking the cameras to a compatible Apple TV app.
Have a great day!
They’re two separate smart home eco systems that don’t play well together at the moment. This is something Matter will hopefully resolve one day. But, this more of googles fault for not developing an app for the Apple TV to view their cameras. Starling hub is the only way for now. I’ve owned a starling hub since 2019 and it has been flawless.
Sorry-- not a helpful answer. I am going to try the Starling device that links Apple and Nest. The Apple TV Nest app doesn't support many Nest devices. Apple needs to do better.
Thanks -- I bought Starling hub -- just ****** that I needed to! It does work well -- and took about 5 minutes to set up.
You don’t migrate your nest account to google. We’ve kept it that way for over 5 years now.
Exactly. Still mad that I had to buy Starling hub -- but it has worked flawlessly and I love seeing Google doorbells through Apple Home on Apple TV.
