Google announced via its Nest support forum that it’s ending support for first and second-generation Nest Thermostats. That means no more updates and no more remote control through the app or Google Assistant. The move affects the original 2011 model, the 2012 second-gen model, and the 2014 European version. If you’re unsure which model you have, check the screen size: the earlier devices sport a compact 1.8-inch display, compared to the 3.25-inch panel on third-gen models and beyond.

In the post, Google framed the move as a way to focus on supporting newer hardware, though it could be interpreted as a not-so-subtle nudge for users to upgrade. The company also says it has no plans to launch new thermostat models in Europe.
To soften the blow, Google is offering affected users a $130 discount on the Nest Thermostat (4th Gen) and 50 percent off the Tado Smart Thermostat X Starter Kit for European customers.
