How do I connect SimpliSafe to Google Nest mini?

I would like to be able to operate my SimpliSafe devices remotely away from the wifi at home.

@877hlgainer If you have the right monitoring plan and the SS app, no issues. Want to arm your system, sure, you can do that on your Google Nest but, at this time, that is about it. No disarming, no cameras etc.

@877hlgainer as Captain11 mentioned, if you are subscribed to our Fast Protect™ monitoring plan you will be able to arm your SimpliSafe system using Google Assistant, but for your protection you cannot disarm you system via Google Assistant. 

To integrate your system with Google Nest, take the following steps:

  1. Open the Google Assistant app on your smartphone or tablet
  2. Select the menu in the top left corner of the screen, and then Home Control
  3. Click the plus + icon on the bottom right corner to add a device
  4. Scroll down and select SimpliSafe in the list of available devices
  5. Log in to your SimpliSafe account, and then select the location to which you'd like to pair your Google Assistant

Once Google Assistant is integrated, it will show under the Integrations section of your SimpliSafe account.

Thank you. Emily. I'm too old to for all this electronic stuff but my brother-in-law's son setup his house, e.g. lights, stereo, security system on Google and it's like walking onto the Star Trek bridge. I'll try it, thanks again.
