Good but could be better

The camera is easy to set up in the app, connect to a Wi-Fi source and install easily. The camera's day and night vision is very clear and sharp in High Definition (HD). I love that you can take pictures and videos while monitoring in real time. I like everything about the cell except for two things. 1. You must keep moving your finger to the right to make the camera move to the right. Ineffective when trying to control something. When you tap the screen in live view, you get pop-up options to switch to HD, take a photo, record a video, and turn on the lights at night, which disables the infrared sensor. The company should set up a toggle switch on the same screen that lets you pan, tilt and zoom (P, T, Z) with a swipe. In "Live View" mode you should be able to monitor the camera's image continuously, instead the camera will go to sleep when no motion is detected. I like to constantly monitor the camera's image when I'm at home. During live camera monitoring, the camera will enter sleep mode after about 10 minutes. When motion is detected, the camera wakes up and starts recording again. Still a great feature, but I'd love to be able to disable sleep mode and monitor the camera continuously. Overall this is a great camera for the price. I have two cameras, one monitor in each of my two houses. I will buy two more if they create a pan, tilt, zoom function with a toggle switch.

Pros
  • Two-way audio and device sharing
Cons
  • Power socket required
