Nest Protect reliably detects and alerts you to the presence of smoke or carbon monoxide in your home. The alarm speaks to you in a calm, clear, human voice, telling you the location of the danger. It also provides smartphone alerts and battery status updates to help protect your home. This hardwired version is suitable for homes with existing hardwired smoke or CO detectors.

Great product- terrible app infrastructure
on February 22, 2020
Posted by: Mynickname
Verified Purchase:Yes
•Easy to add to the app. •Wired detectors deal with cutting power, cutting off old “plug”, matching wires together, then plugging new “plug” into new detector. So not exactly the plug and go I was under the impression these were. •Battery operated ones are super easy to install.
Now to my frustration. I knew these weren’t HomeKit compatible. I took a chance on them anyways. Why? I didn’t find a smart or non smart smoke detector that I liked for our needs. So..... I got this anyways. The having to bounce back and forth between the Nest and Google Home apps is annoying. All of the bouncing just to add people to my Nest account. What a pain in the thumbs. WHY? This is a big question when the detectors don’t even show up in Google Home. WHY?
So here’s my input if anyone from Google chooses to read this... Pick an app. Put it all together. Make it function. I honestly think I know some teenagers that could design this and make it not only look better, but have a functionality that would actually make sense. I really worry about the future if you aren’t willing to play nice with the your own family much less the others in your neighborhood. If I were you, I would have purchased Nest. Made it compatible with all major home automation infrastructures and benefited from the expansion of sales. However, I would have offered expansion on automation ability for all the devices in Google home. (Think ITTTT) If you build it well and play nice with others you win on all fronts. (And your customers will LOVE you)!

Easily handle your phone or use it hands-free with this Insignia ring stand. The slim design attaches quickly to the back of your phone, turning your case into a flip-out stand. Flip the ring out to slip around your finger for a secure grip on your phone, or use this Insignia ring stand as a convenient prop.

Hold the phone

It sticks. It allows for me to hold my phone- I put it on the phone where I could hold on to it so the kickstand feature doesn’t hold the phone at the angle needed. But, that’s not why I purchased this.

Can I use these with Sonos One w/Alexa, and do I also need the hub, or can I just use the Hue app. on my phone?
To use Hues you must purchase the hub. You then download the Hues app when you are setting it all up. The important takeaway is that you can not run these without the hub. Once you have installed the lights and downloaded the app you can run them through the app, through alexia enabled devices (which will take some basic setup in the alexia app), or through Hue accessories (ie motion sensor, or hue switch). You will keep the light switch in the on position or lights will not work.
