Many also highlight the effective night vision and motion detection capabilities, although some users experienced connectivity issues and found the motion sensitivity to be excessive.

    Similar to a web camera. It gives motion detection notices just because the sun comes up or goes down. Very annoying.

    You can get a cheaper product that’ll work better than this. I plan to return it because it’s entirely too sensitive. Even after changing the settings, I was still receiving alerts about false movements.

    Not a good quality product, even for low price. App was difficult to set-up; had a hard time connecting to my wifi. Angles of the camera were decent, but range in front of window was less than satisfactory. Overall, crappy instruction manual. Had to mess around with camera to get it set up. The app kept crashing several times before I was able to install it. Also, one month of Cloud storage is free, to store camera footage. Afterwards, it's $10 a month. Lastly, unless outlet is further up, long plug in cord looks awful against wall. I highly recommend spending more money and getting yourself a BETTER CAMERA! I took both back.

    Very basic, no Alexa integration, and cannot be used as a secret camera due to lights on the camera not being able to be turned off.

    The Tend Secure application will no longer allow me to log in to your account. This may have been due to an upgrade earlier this year. I therefore cannot connect to the cameras. I suspect the application and the camera model has been abandoned since the company was sold last year. I am switching to Blink Mini cameras. I may then try to connect the Tend Lynx cameras to the Tuya application, otherwise they are going into the recycling bin.

    Beware! IOS only. NOT a webcam.

    Pointless device. To use it as a webcam, you must first: 1- Install and connect it to a portable device. 2- Access said device on your PC using a browser and Tends extension. Wait a minute! I don't know of a portable device that doesn't already have a built-in camera. I don't want a Tends extension on my browser. Tend doesn't mention any of this in their literature or FAQs. Pro: My beagle puppy ate the packaging (so I can't return the camera). He tells me it tasted great.

    Don't buy this! I was able to get it to sync only twice with my wifi...didn't want to have it on all the time. Then tried to log back in and poof - couldn't connect. chat was worthless and instructs went in circles. couldn't take it back because BestBuy has only a 15 day return policy and I didn't set it up right away so I was not aware of this MAJOR issue. Buyer beware!

    Bought two to be placed in two different rooms. I read the reviews and decided to set these up by the wifi router then move them to the rooms. It took over an hour to set these up despite reading the directions and doing everything they said to do. Once I did get them working I moved them and lost connection from the wifi. The house is not more than 1,400 sq ft.

    No phone to call ,no customer service, do not answer emails , the company that made this camera sucks. Bought at Best Buy in Florida worked for two weeks there drove to NY it worked for 1 week with many problems. Finally stoped working . I’m here inNY and it’s in FL. And without a camera on my winter home. And no way to call a tech rep.
