Naming Your Cameras
Naming a device makes it easier for Google to interpret your commands. For example, having more than one camera named "Camera", makes it difficult to distinguish from other devices with the same name. Consider naming a camera based on its location (i.e. Outoodr, Front Door, Office).
Adding a New Night Owl Camera
After adding a device to Night Owl Connect, Google Home must refresh itself which may take several minutes. Open the Google Home App. If the newly added device to Night Owl Connect has not yet appeared, close the app and repeat this process. If the device continuously fails to appear, make sure the product is a Google Home compatible device.
