Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the camera quality, ease of use, and affordable price of the Mini - Compact indoor plug-in smart security camera. Many appreciate its small size, motion detection, and night vision capabilities, making it a good security option. However, some users have reported issues with connectivity, battery life, and the live view option. Additionally, the subscription requirement has been a concern for some customers.

    Didn't pick up on motion like the Ring camera does. It would periodically pick up motion but missed a lot of motion that crossed in front of the camera.

    Sometimes works and sometimes not! Frustrated! It only works when I am near it with my call phone for some reason. The night vision is still pretty dark too.

    If I could go back in time I would choose never buying this product. What an annoying evening on YouTube troubleshooting and still unsuccessful. If you have am iPhone 13 Pro avoid.

    Doesn't detect motion well even at highest sensitivity settings and doesn't save videos. Put your money towards a better camera!

    Waste of money. Every time you view the feed it makes a click and the monthly service is over priced. I’ve walked infront of the camera serval occasions and it never recorded me there. Save your money!
