Home Remote

A private control panel for one household. It runs on the owner's own computer and home network. It is not a public product, marketplace app, or multi-user service.

Home Remote lets the owner view and adjust their Google Nest thermostat (temperature, mode, and related status) and browse their own YouTube subscriptions and library. Tokens stay on the owner's machine. There are no ads, no analytics trackers, and no sale or sharing of Google user data with third parties.

What it does

Nest thermostat Reads thermostat status and, when the owner asks, updates settings through Google’s Smart Device Management (SDM) API.
YouTube (read-only) Lists the owner’s subscriptions and library using the youtube.readonly scope. It does not upload, comment, or change channel settings.
Runs at home Served on the owner’s local network (and optionally a private mesh VPN). Not offered as a hosted SaaS.
Your data stays yours OAuth tokens are stored only on the owner’s computer or server. Access can be revoked anytime at Google Account permissions.

Google data this app uses

  • Nest / SDM: thermostat state and control for devices the owner has linked in Device Access.
  • YouTube Data API: read-only access to subscriptions and library content for the signed-in Google account.

Use of Google user data is limited to these household features and matches the practices described in the Privacy Policy.
