    I am so severely disappointed with this purchase it is insane. Seriously for what this thing costs it is pathetic. The battery life is awful and has to be charged almost every week, even with most of the features turned off. Every time I get a notification of an event it says “this video is not available please check back later” It barely records events or will record the last 2 seconds of an event so you miss most of it. Unfortunately I can’t get a refund for this piece of garbage so it will be going on eBay. AVOID THIS THING LIKE THE PLAGUE.

    Hard to set up without a book. I’m a tech and no help. Stinks you can’t add a light. Hard of hearing so… After setup ok I think still not sure about detection. At least I get a notification on my Apple Watch. Still figuring it all out.

    I loved the first generation camera so I replaced our back doorbell with this one from Google (replacing a Ring). It freezes whenever someone rings the doorbell or it takes so much time to load that you might as well just open the door to see who it is. If you get an alert that there is movement, it also freezes. The regular Nest app won’t work with this model so you need to use the Google Home app, which is worse.
