Simple interface - set and forget

I'll start with the fact that the camera works. What doesn't work is our luck at capturing wildlife on video. We set the camera up in a tree in our favorite corner of the woods and it stayed there for three days without being seen by a living being. So how do I know it works? Because he has no problem taking our dogs into the home and we even managed to catch a glimpse of a fox running around the yard one night. Now for the camera, here are some of the pros and cons I've found so far. Pros: * Durable* Spill-resistant screen and battery compartment* Ability to Features can be locked with a 4-digit code* Good detection speed of up to 10-15 feet* Strap attaches easily with a snap mechanism* SD card slot is on the back All-weather flap* Installation with two options* Settings are restored between battery changes retained* WiFi remote control* Remote viewing via mobile app Cons:* Lens caps are plastic and scratch easily.* USB connector is a mini USB (actually deprecated) Observations: I used 2200mah rechargeable AA batteries with camera. With these batteries it lasted 72 hours at the highest resolution and sensitivity setting and was still charged when we picked it up. The caveat is that we didn't record anything, so your mileage may vary. You might get more time using lithium batteries, but they tend to be expensive. The menu is pretty intuitive and even without reading the manual everything is pretty easy to figure out. The guide helps, but one thing we didn't discover right away is that if you're using a passcode, you'll need to enter it before the camera becomes active. In other words, it won't become active when set to "ON" unless a password is entered...
