  • The image shows a person holding a cell phone with a message displayed on the screen. The message reads "HUMAN - M VEHICLE 11:49 Thursday, 8 September NIGHT OWL PROTECT 5m ago Someone Has Been Detected (Home) Front Door camera saw someone." This suggests that the cell phone is being used to monitor a security system, possibly for a home or a vehicle. The person holding the phone is likely receiving a notification or alert from the security system.

    The software is lacking in comparison to the Swann system i replaced which was 5 years older. I was disappointed in the quality of rhe cameras in conoarison to the Swann system as well. I would not recommend this system to anyone else.
