Hi,

I am fully invested in the Google Home ecosystem, but will pass on Nest cameras, because silly Google won't sell me Nest Aware subscribtion, because I am based in an unsupported country (Slovenia, Europe), and their cameras are fairly useless without the sub.

I am looking at Arlo and some other brands, they all seem to "support Google Home integration", but information online is conflicting, and I'm afraid that the integration won't be functioning well.

What are the Arlo cameras options you can use as triggers for Google Home Routines?

What actions can Arlo cameras perform after receiving a trigger from a Google Home routine?

Can you watch livestream on Nest Hub?

Do you have to start it yourself or it will just start playing when it detects motion?

Can you also watch recordings on Nest Hub?

Does the integration work well, is it reliable, stable?

Thanks so much
