Not the best choice (several issues)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think Swann is a great quality product however the mounting plate doesn't really give room for the wiring. I'm still trying to figure out the app. It doesn't seem to connect to existing home chimes like nest doorbell cameras. I was able to get a mounting spacer on ETSY which allowed for a secure mount to vinyl siding.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Swann
Posted .Hi Smart Shopper,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to help us understand your experience.
Regarding compatibility with your existing home chime:
1. Our documentation states that the Swann Buddy™ doorbell models (e.g., SWIFI‑BUDDY, SWIFI‑4KBUDDY, SWIFI‑SEVDBC) are only compatible with the Swann Buddy chime units (such as SWIFI‑BUDDYCHM and SOIFI‑BUDDYCHM2).
It explicitly states that they are not compatible with existing wired home chimes or other third‑party chime models.
We understand this may be disappointing if you were expecting to use your existing home chime. Your feedback is very helpful and will be passed on to our product team.
If you’d like assistance locating a compatible chime unit or alternative solution, please feel free to reach out to us. Our team is here to help.
Your feedback is truly appreciated.

Excellent video and audio quality
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overview I recently installed the Swann EVO Wireless Video Doorbell & Chime, and I wanted to share my experience with this product. As someone who values security and convenience, I was eager to see if this doorbell would live up to its promises. After a week of usage, here are my thoughts on its performance, features, and overall usability. Installation The installation process was surprisingly straightforward. The package includes a mounting bracket, screws, and a detailed instruction manual. I was able to mount the doorbell on my front door within 30 minutes. The only tool I needed was a screwdriver. The doorbell is designed to be wire-free, which made it easy to position at the optimal height without any complicated wiring. Design The design of the EVO doorbell is sleek and modern, fitting seamlessly with my home’s exterior. It has a durable construction and feels solid in hand. The camera is discreetly integrated, and the built-in chime is compact, making it an unobtrusive addition to my entryway. Features Video Quality: The 1080p HD video quality is impressive. Daytime clarity is sharp, and the night vision feature is equally effective, providing clear images in low light. I feel reassured knowing I can see who is at my door, regardless of the time. Two-Way Audio: The two-way audio feature is a standout. I can communicate directly with visitors through my smartphone, which is particularly useful when I’m away from home. The audio quality is good, although there can be slight latency depending on the Wi-Fi connection. Motion Detection: The motion detection settings are customizable. I can adjust the sensitivity, which helps prevent unnecessary alerts from passing cars or people walking by. I appreciate the option to receive notifications only for specific zones, ensuring I’m not bombarded with alerts. Integration with Smart Home Devices: The EVO doorbell integrates well with my smart home system. I can connect it to my smart lights and security cameras, which adds an extra layer of security. It also works with voice assistants, allowing me to check the doorbell feed hands-free. Cloud Storage: Swann offers cloud storage for recorded video clips, which is a nice feature, though I opted for the local storage option instead. The local storage provides peace of mind without the ongoing subscription cost. Usability Using the Swann EVO app has been a positive experience. The interface is user-friendly, making it easy to navigate through settings and view live feeds. I appreciate the quick response time when accessing the video stream. The app also allows me to review recorded footage, which is beneficial for keeping track of deliveries or any unusual activity. Performance The battery life has been impressive so far. I’ve had it installed for a few weeks without needing to recharge it, even with regular use. The doorbell has remained connected to my Wi-Fi without any interruptions, and I’ve experienced no significant lag in the video feed. Downsides While my experience has been mostly positive, there are a couple of drawbacks to consider: Wi-Fi Dependency: The performance heavily relies on Wi-Fi strength. If your signal is weak at the front door, you may experience connectivity issues. Chime Volume: The chime volume could be a bit louder. I’ve had a few instances where I missed the chime because I was in another room with background noise. Conclusion Overall, the Swann EVO Wireless Video Doorbell & Chime has exceeded my expectations. Its combination of features, ease of use, and reliable performance make it a valuable addition to my home security setup. If you’re in the market for a video doorbell that offers solid functionality and a user-friendly experience, I highly recommend considering the Swann EVO. Just be mindful of your Wi-Fi signal strength to ensure optimal performance!
