All smoke alarms feature a loud blaring tone to alert you to potential dangers in your home. Nest Protect goes a step further by adding voice alerts that calmly tell you what kind of danger is present, where it is and how to proceed. If you have multiple Nest Protect smoke alarms installed and networked in your home, alerts will sound on each of them, warning everyone in your home about the danger. You can hush the alarm with the app if there's a false alarm. When Nest Protect detects threats in your home, it sends a notification directly to your smartphone. These real time notifications allow you to handle the situation from wherever you are – you won’t always be home when disaster strikes – and contact local emergency services if necessary. Our testers determined that Nest Protect was by far the easiest to set up, mount and connect because of its intuitive design and clear instructions. It took just a few minutes from opening the package to having a fully functional smoke detector ready to go. After you connect this Wi Fi smoke alarm to the internet, you can control, monitor and test the device remotely though a useful mobile app. The app also tracks battery life and allows the unit to test itself on a monthly basis. At night, the Nest Protect can detect movement and light levels nearby, allowing it to turn on a nightlight when you get up to visit the bathroom.
