We got this camera to cover our backyard to be able to watch our dog and kids, based on a recommendation. We've had it for a week and we love this camera - it's very clear and when someone walks by at night, even our small dog, the light comes on and the image goes from black and white to color. Plus if it's us walking out there we have an instant backyard light. We did get a lot of alerts at first but changed the settings and now it's fine. I'd highly recommend this camera. We've haven't had any connection issues and would highly recommend.

After many tech support level 2 calls, reinstalls and re-pairings, I could not make these work for me. The iPhone app crashes, frequently disconnects from the cameras, gives me eternal spinning when trying to view playback. No noticeable pattern as to when it works or not. Even when it works, it frequently gives false alerts from the breeze, even though it is set to detect people. I had to turn off notifications due to constant bombardment of false alerts. I have good internet speed and connectivity to both cameras. I would love these to work and have given it several days of troubleshooting with no avail. They really need to fix their app. Look at the reviews at the App Store to see the problems. Unfortunately, I will need to return them and will be trying Nest cameras in the hopes they are better.

After install everything went pretty well just make sure your wireless speed is up to the task.I use mine on my iPad and Android phone.The only problem that I had was that I could not activate the lights or siren on 1 camera so tech support had me uninstall the app and reinstall it and that took care of my problem that was two weeks ago so far so good.I would recommend them to anyone.

Great camera. Ugly cable.

Camera works great and was actually easy to setup. The power cable is really long, which was handy. But the connectors coming from the camera are about a foot away from the camera and pretty big. Has power, LAN, and reset button. Not pretty when it is visible.
But no problems with the camera itself.

Love everything Swann so far and this camera is no exception. Only drawback is that I cannot run it into my NVR.

Great value! Outdoor 1080p camera - 2 floodlights
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I wanted to monitor the back of my property where there is a storm creek. I have an outdoor power plug in the area, but no way to run Ethernet or Coax for a CCTV camera.
The Swann Outdoor 1080p Spotlight Camera was the perfect solution. I plugged in the camera to the outdoor power, then was able to run the 60' provided power cable to mount the camera. With 110v power, the Swann Spotlight camera was able to connect with my home's mesh router - with a 58% signal.
I get a week of detected motion recordings included with purchase.
Great infrared night vision and two floodlights to ward off intruders or critters.
