In recent developments, many users have discovered enticing renewal discount offers for Nest Aware. These offers effectively reduce the annual subscription fee from the standard $100 to just $50, providing significant savings for subscribers. Following a recent price increase, the standard cost for Nest Aware has risen to $100 per year or $10 per month, making these discounts especially appealing.
The Nest Aware service is designed to enhance home security with features such as intelligent alerts for familiar faces, smoke and carbon monoxide alarm detection, and access to e911 calls. The Nest Aware Plus option, which offers more extensive recording capabilities, has also seen a price increase, effectively doubling the cost of the base tier. As a result, many subscribers are keen to take advantage of the new discounted offer.
Interestingly, users have reported that when they attempt to cancel their subscription, they are greeted with a special renewal offer that provides a 50% discount. This means that instead of paying the full $100 annual fee, subscribers can renew for just $50. Both Nest Aware and Nest Aware Plus subscribers are benefiting from this discount, making it a widely discussed topic among users.
However, there is a significant caveat to this offer. It appears that the discounted renewal option is currently only available to users in the United States. Users from Canada and Australia have reported that they do not see this offer, highlighting a geographical limitation that may affect many potential subscribers.
Reports indicate that even users with a recently renewed subscription can trigger the 50% off offer by attempting to cancel. This can be done through the Google Home app by navigating to the Nest Aware page, selecting "Manage subscription," and then tapping "Cancel." However, it's important to note that in our own tests, the discount offer did not appear, which may vary by user.
In addition to these discounts, Google has plans to rebrand the Nest Aware plan to "Google Home Premium." The more expensive tier, which features fewer recording restrictions, will be rebranded as "Google Home Premium Advanced." Given the recent price increases, it is unlikely that this rebranding will coincide with further changes in pricing.
For now, the Nest Aware discounted renewal offer continues to provide an attractive option for existing subscribers looking to maintain their home security services at a reduced rate. With the potential for rebranding and ongoing changes in pricing, users are encouraged to stay informed about any future developments in the Nest Aware offerings.
