    Setup was easy but it kept disconnecting from wifi. On the phone with tech support 3 hours they said i need a wifi extender with a deficated SSID. (My whole house is wired with no dead zones) OK I placed a netgear wifi extender right next to window. Literally 2ft from camera & wifi would drop. Switched to Google camera. PROBLEMS SOLVED.

    Works flawlessly. Provides almost immediate notice via the Simplisafe app when the camera is activated by motion. Does not react to cars or squirrels.

    Clarity field is good but you have to turn your phone upside down to see the picture! What engineer thought this up? Is there a way to correct this debacle?

      That's rather concerning. Is the camera itself also physically set up upside-down? We don't yet have a feature for flipping the image around. SimpliSafe

    Not a very good camera. I have it facing out a window looking at my front door 2 feet away and it never picks up anyone at the front door. Also it takes a long time to turn on in the app.

      Thanks for the feedback. It sounds like you've set up your Outdoor Camera inside, looking through a window. Unfortunately, because it uses infrared to detect motion, the sensor is not able to work through glass. We strongly recommend setting it up outside. SimpliSafe
