    This camera is NO GOOD!

    This Canary camera is NO GOOD! The device will not stay connected to the internet; always indicates "device offline". I initially thought it may have been positioned too far away from wi-fi base, but it doesn't work when sitting 1 foot away. I am confident the internet connection is not the problem because all of my Ring cameras and other devices work just fine, using the same connection.

    This system is difficult to set up. I even bought another router to make it easier. Canary's support system is during regular business hours so I was unable to talk to a live person. Their set up website made it seem like I had to buy a subscription to make it work and then later I found out it could be free! The best thing I can say is that Best Buy stands behind their customers and helped me find a better product. Canary did refund my subscription since I was unable to make it work.

    Nice idea but Very hard to recharge the battery. You have to follow colored prompts and takes hours to complete. Wouldn’t re-charge after 10 months.
