I love this camera
I set it up in my chicken coop to spy on my birds while I was away for the weekend. It was unbelievably easy to connect to my home network and mounts easily with a couple screws. The app is also easy to use. The camera rests in a super strong magnet on the mount, so you can aim it in different directions after installation. It survived the epic heat wave that passed through the mid-Atlantic last week, and when the free trial subscription runs out, it just cuts you back to storing 2 days of footage instead of 30, still free. I got it on sale for $80, but I'd say it's worth full price. I liked it so much I bought a second one to monitor my yard. This little camera is a great purchase and gives me peace of mind that my birds are safe when I am away.

Great outdoor camera
I highly recommend this camera, it is has a sharp picture, works great both during the day and at night and is easy to setup and install. Only reason I rate it 4 instead of 5 is it’s very sensitive even at setting 2 it still records activity even if the wind blows.

Great outdoor camera
This camera was so easy to install. It literally took less than 30 mins to unbox, power up and mount. The picture and sound quality are great and price point was good. The corresponding TP Link Kasa App is great. Super easy to install and program. I enjoy having the ability to view my home from the palm of my hand. I'm completely satisfied with my purchase.

Good camera
Provides quick updates to Kasa App., but very sensitive. Camera sends message to app when large vehicles pass home and notifications when sounds go off in area such as trucks and motorcycles. I am trying to find sweet spot in adjusting sensitivity. Clear picture on app is great and easy to set up.

Works well! Some limitations, though...
The camera was easy to set up. It provides a good picture, and night mode is decent. The drawback is like many cameras like this; TP-Link seems to want you to buy their cloud based storage, and there really is no way to check the video, except on your phone with the KASA app, or it will cast to an Android product, such as an nVidia Shield. The sensitivity leaves a bit to be desired, and no matter how it's adjusted, it sets off your phone notifications quite a lot. I wish there was a way to store video on my NAS, rather than opt for cloud ($$) storage. I'd also like to stream to my PC or Mac, if desired.
