Yes this camera is not a high dollar camera but that is why I buy Guardzilla products. It does what I need it to do. It detects motion and records video. The lag time on when it detects and starts recording seems to be pretty good. The features I would have loved to see with this camera is a speaker and mic like the indoor Guardzilla cameras have. Would have made more sense to have this feature on this camera so you could talk to someone and hear them if you didn't know them and didn't want to answer the door. Also I could have used that feature while on vacation to call the dogs to make sure they was all ok and accounted for. Other than that I'm very happy. I have reccomended Guardzilla to friends and they have also purchased them. The pictures I added below are from my iPad. I have the Guardzilla app installed on my iPhone and iPad. I believe I had to install the iPhone app on my iPad as Guardzilla don't have an iPad app. When you turn your iPad into horizontal position it makes the picture larger. Of course the larger picture on the iPad distorts the photo alittle. It looks better on the iPhone.

Great image, easy connection, nice night camera but just record whatever is get when you walk in front of the camera , ok nice , but if you put the camera toward to the garage and the camera is in a height never turns on, unbelievable you have to walk right in front of camera close if not , you can't record anything, and you have to buy a money por year or month , next time I will buy a brand that's record at least past 24 horas and you don't have to pay monthly fee

I ordered this online. Looked good and easy to install. Comes with a quick set up sheet and an app to get started. Well, after a couple of hrs being on, it fell asleep. I was never able to get it out of that mode. I unplugged it and tried restarting to no avail. Then I found a customer service number on the app. Says to leave a message and they will get back to you the next business day...I called twice and NO ONE ever returned my call. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT AT ALL. NOT EVEN IF IT WERE FREE. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.

The camera video quality is fine, it's in color, and you can watch it live. But the motion sensor notification isn't working properly when I turn that setting on - it sends me an alert every minute, even in the dark - I'm going to have to contact guardzilla customer service to get it fixed. Lastly, there's no audio. So it mostly works but has a few cons that could affect your purchase, given it's price tag.

The one I purchased to augment the one we already owned would not connect to the network. Customer service was poor- unknowledgeable, unresponsive, and difficult to work with, Although they eventually replaced the original, they would not cover shipping even though it was only a few weeks from purchase. The image is fine, but motion detection is unreliable. Mounting is easy.

I had to replace my last out door camera on a budget. The video quality is good. The app lags and doesn't load. So if someone breaks into my home. I am screwed. Waste of my money. Currently looking for a new one.

I read many reviews before purchasing my Guardzilla. I needed a camera for my back yard and pool. I have a large yard that backs up to woods, and I have been concerned for some time about safety. Our neighbor walked into her home to find an intruder had broken in the back door and was robbing the house!!
I just set up the camera. It was super easy to do using my iPhone and the Guardzilla app. So far I am really enjoying the camera. I have only messed around a bit with the motion detection, but the WIFI strength has been excellent. The video is pretty clear after making a slight adjustment to the picture quality.
This product looks great, is easy to set up, and has more features than I expected to receive out of $99 camera!! I highly recommend my Guardzilla! I also like the name.

It was easy to setup and like the high quality of picture. Running on batteries and so far no issues. I only wish there was a white balance selection as my picture runs a little red tint during day. Night vision is awesome.

I purchased this wireless camera so I can set it up outside my house to see incoming packages and other stuff. It is very slow using the app to see the pictures. Sometime it connects and other time, there was no picture. I set the Motion Sensitivity to Min and I was getting texts throughout the day and nothing was there. I like the idea of being batteries operated, but it does not work as well.

I needed an outdoor camera to monitor my kids in the back yard when I'm in my home office. I needed it to be simple to use and Guardzilla is perfect. I hung the camera by my back door, downloaded the app and was looking at my backyard on my phone in less than 5 minutes! Great picture and a super easy app. Thank u Guardzilla!

What I love about this camera is that it runs off of batteries and you can move it anytime! The picture is very clear. We use it to monitor our pool. The time out feature is not an issue for us. The camera sleeps until you activate it. It is what it is....and works great for what we need it for. The ease and mobility of it alone, earns it 5 stars

This camera was very easy to set up. I have it looking at my front door. Could be placed anywhere. I can see anyone to comes up to my house, I'm think I'll be getting one for the back door as well very soon! The app is very simple to use and I love that I can use it to see a real-time video feed, and also doesn't need lights on to see in the dark. Great camera would defiantly recommend.

I setup the camera in under 5 minutes and the app is very simple to use. The HD video is outstanding and allows us to clearly see who's at the front door. The motion detection notifications make my wife feel much safer when she's home alone. Amazing value at $99
