    requires subscription to work after 1 month; tragic marketing error. Same device could allow transfer to cell phone or computer directly without cloud control. The cloud control might have virtues for some buyers. System is erratic on activation and recording.

    Bought these to blend in with interior colo. The picture and video quality were greatly lacking compared to the white ones. I placed a black one and a white one side by side to record the same area. The difference in quality was immediately obvious. I don't know if I received defective camera.

    This camera is terrible and I regret my purchase. It is very dark and does not catch all movement. It does not send me alerts for all of the movements in my home. I have a $20.00 camera in my bedroom that I am pleased with and will be buying 2 more to replace these two and will just be out of the money I spent which I am not happy about but there is nothing I can do.

    If you don’t have WiFi, it doesn’t work. Which was really a bummer because the place I live doesn’t have WiFi or the WiFi is pretty bad so I can’t even have it recording on it’s own off WiFi to look at later, super underwhelming and upset about it:(

    Doesn’t detect motion. My mom walked in and out of the camera view so many times, nothing was captured. We also have 3 outdoor cameras and they work slightly better. The indoor camera has once captured a false movement, but zero actual movements. No wonder this camera was free with purchase.
