App works fine

Been using this app and cam combo for six months, just wish company would put out more performance enhancements and firmware updates for better stability.

Poor integrated features

The cameras are not compatible for automation or viewing the cameras at the same time. The battery powered camera doesnโ€™t even have the option for smart scenes or any automation. Also, the batteries powered cameras will constantly say that it failed to establish an encrypted connection, even though the wired powered cameras are in the same room and will connect fine. Poor return response, even after a month of requesting a replacement. The firmware and app upgrade didnโ€™t have any improvements, for automation features or encrypted connections.

Response from developer

Hi! We apologize for this inconvenience and are sorry if we didn't respond right away due to COVID-19. We are continuously working on improving the features and functions of our products and regret that the current app update caused issues for some of our users. We are working on updating the Smart Scenes function to have more options available for our users. Currently, only our new stationary, wired cameras will work with multi camera viewing, but we are working on rolling this out to more of our cameras. We are also actively working on fixes to help with connection and encryption issues and would like for you to email us at support@energizerconnect.com in order to provide us some additional information. We will respond in a timely manner.

Doorbell lost signal

I donโ€™t know if was a new update, but my doorbell camera shows online and then offline. I have a week with the equipment and never before had any problems. I re installed the doorbell and noting. And when shows online last for ever to show the image.

Doorbell camera

I really like the doorbell camera. Itโ€™s clear and easy to talk to someone. The install was also very easy. It is sleek up against the house. My only negative thing about it is how long it takes to load up when getting on the app. I have a newer phone and a great router and it takes a good bit of time to load up. Other than that itโ€™s great!

5 minute install, economical, no fees

Removed existing hard-wired doorbell button and had the Energizer Button installed in 5 minutes.

Purchased at local Home Improvement Store, very affordable.

WiFi set/up for local door bell easy.

I-phone app set-up easy.

I get motion alerts while at work when various delivery drivers come and go.

I have not yet had the need or tried audio interaction.

I did need to relocate the Flag on the front porch as we live in a windy area, and got too many notices blowing up my phone on windy days.

not sure

Doesnโ€™t connect

Junk

My camera works fine when Iโ€™m home but when Iโ€™m out and really really need to look at it it will never connect. Timer for as around and around and fails. A waste of money

So the developer suggest refreshing the router or unplugging the camera or a couple of other things. So if I understand correctly, when Iโ€™m out and my house alarm goes off I check my camera and canโ€™t connect. So I run home reset my router and unplug my camera then I can see if someone is in my house. I have other IP cameras, you know how many need ANY attention in order to work? None. I just thought Iโ€™d try the energizer and it wonโ€™t happen again. Thatโ€™s a foolish solution for a product that doesnโ€™t function properly.

Response from developer

Hi! We are sorry you are having this issue. With everyone home and staying safe, there has been some stress on internet traffic. Try refreshing your router by unplugging the router from power and plugging it back in. This will help to clear its cache and reestablish a strong connection. You can also unplug the camera itself from power and plug it back in to help it reconnect to your WIFi. Take a look at our Connection FAQs, on our website at www.energizerconnect.com/connection-issues . Another thing that may help is creating a separate, dedicated network, just for your smart devices. This can help secure and stabilize connection, as well as devoting bandwidth to your camera.

Love it

Love that I can change the color of my light or the brightness or just turn it on n off with just my phone very convenient when Iโ€™m to lazy to get up and turn the light off ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Door bell

I have to say this purchase of the energizer door was worth the money and time to install, awesome product and well worth the money, buy the way it was at a very low price but itโ€™s worth so much more

Could be better

This app is ok when it works but boy does that rarely ever happenes. If your phone died, Or if thereโ€™s a storm and your power goes out good luck trying to reconnect to you device. It will not reconnect to your internet for any reason then your stuck having to delete the Device. Which when you do that it takes like 10 tries to reconnect to your phone.
