How do I get a QR code for my Nest?

Answered by Robert Dupre

To get a QR code for your Nest product, you will need to locate the code on the device. The specific location of the QR code can vary depending on the Nest product you have. However, it is typically found on the back, bottom, or inside the battery compartment of the device.

To begin, you can start by examining the back of your Nest product. Look for any stickers or labels that may contain the QR code. The QR code is a square-shaped barcode that consists of black squares arranged on a white background. It may be small in size, so you may need to look closely.

If you do not find the QR code on the back of the device, try checking the bottom. Some Nest products have the QR code placed on the underside. Again, look for any stickers or labels that may contain the code.

In cases where the device has a battery compartment, you can open it up and inspect the inside. The QR code may be located on the inner side of the cover or on a label inside the compartment.

If you are having trouble locating the QR code, the Nest app can be a helpful tool. Open the app and navigate to the QR code scanning screen. If you are unsure where to find this screen, you can tap on the “Help me find the code” option. The app will display a picture that shows the exact location of the QR code for your specific Nest product. This visual guide can assist you in finding the code more easily.

Remember that the QR code is essential for setting up your Nest product. It contains important information that the app needs to connect and configure the device correctly. Therefore, it is crucial to locate and scan the QR code accurately.

To summarize, to get a QR code for your Nest product, you should first check the back, bottom, or inside the battery compartment of the device. If you are unable to locate the QR code, you can use the Nest app’s QR code scanning screen, which provides a visual guide to help you find the code. By following these steps, you will be able to obtain the QR code and proceed with setting up your Nest product.
