The Nest thermostat is not currently compatible with Apple’s HomeKit. Google owns Nest. Read the following article about Google’s plan to support HomeKit.

For you to think about, there are a number of home automation systems out there that are not compatible with one another. The big players like Apple and Google, Amazon have been working on a universally compatible connectivity system called Matter. It’s not here yet though.
