    Disappointed

    I purchased these cameras on 1/27/25 and I already want a refund. The reviews had me thinking I made a great purchase, I was highly disappointed. The quality was just okay, the cord is super short so I couldn’t even put it where I wanted. It took the camera 20 mins to come on after I plugged it in. I thought it was defective. The subscription is $10 monthly. It’s a no for me. Not worth $80!!

      Hi Eniola,

      Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you're experiencing lag and slow performance with your cameras, even while connected to high-speed internet. That’s not the level of performance we aim to deliver, and we understand how frustrating this can be.
      There may be a few factors affecting the live view, such as network settings or signal strength between the cameras and your router.
      Our support team would be happy to help troubleshoot and get things running smoothly for you. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected] with your set up details. We're here to help and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

    These are pretty good cameras, especially at the price. I initially had some issues with them losing connection, but they’ve since been great.

    Camera quality

    Rated 1 out of 5 stars

    Precise location required by Swann Security app

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The quality of the video of these cameras is not the reason for the 1 star rating - that is really good for the price. I am giving 1 star because the Swann app that you have to download/install to set these cameras up requires your precise location. Not just general location - it won't let you add a camera if you don't allow the app precise location. There is no legitimate reason for this requirement. Because of this, I recommend you buy a different brand altogether.

      Hi David. Our app asks for Location Permission so that it can help find your Wi-Fi network during the pairing process. It helps the app populate a list of local network names to choose from rather than asking you to type it in manually, which may lead to typos that would cause the pairing to fail. If you are concerned about your privacy, you could just enable Location settings whilst you pair the camera, and then immediately afterwards you could disable it again and you will be able to use the camera normally from that point on. Hope that helps. -SD, Swann Team. Swann
