Easy to set up, I had it running in 7 minutes. App could be better but it works rather well. Camera was fine at zero degrees. Took a day or two to get the right settings. Range is not great but I didn't purchase it for it's range. I have it pointed at my front door so range is not a factor. What keeps me from giving it 5 stars is that the actual camera just snaps into the mounting frame which could allow someone to very easily steal it. I wish it at least mounted to the frame with a screw somehow. Obviously for the indoor version it would be fine. Overall I am impressed with this camera but I also had an issue with paying so much. I would have no problem if it were in the $80-90 price range.

First of all this camera was priced perfectly for what you get. I utilize this camera for our outside shed which houses some valuable items. It’s indoor and the way the camera works is when the motion is triggered it starts to record. So there is a 1-2 second delay. The IOS app works great and has lots of features. The only downside is if you get a notification and you go to the app to watch the live video it will not record at the same time. So be careful on that part. I would like to see an improvement on the activation speed and possibly let the camera record whenever viewing live. Overall this camera works great and if they could fix those miner things it would be a 5 star camera. Great video quality night/day

A friend recommended these when I was having personal safety issues. I caught things that I had no idea were happening and used the videos in court to secure a protection order. I have 4 of these now and know that no one is coming near my house and if they are, I’m alerted immediately and I’ve got video evidence and identification. This is one of those things that you can actually install by following the directions and it’s pretty simple. They have decent picture quality and sound. You can change settings such as length of video, infrared, picture quality, sensitivity, and even areas of sensitivity. It even alerts you that the batteries are low. There’s also online support if you have a problem.
