The app is a bit underdeveloped but cmon, the camera price and point of origin should tell ya what to expect. Seen others claiming won’t connect to WiFi, I had to refresh the initial login multiple times before it would find my WiFi which was wpa2 and then you can also manually type in your WiFi ssid (user name) to force it to not rely solely on discovering your WiFi.. but if you’re pretty close both to the router and the camera you should see it after a refresh or two … as far as the user experience.. as I said.. it worked and what not but it’s certainly not a Reolink or higher end product. Video on the card obv much clearer than what you’ll see watching the stream either in real time or in playback on your phone. Alarms would trigger and notify I bought it mostly just to try it as my first cam for keepin an eye on my dog. So, hope this helps. As with all these companies you have to know they will record your data and store your business / video footage on their servers whether you want/pay or not and you also risk getting malware / backdoor hacked especially if you don’t have a robust network setup placing the cameras on an isolated extension of your network which you can learn about via YouTube / google. Won’t avoid the footage being saved but will prevent potential hidden executable files/ malware/ etc from actually getting in to where they could really do some damage. Network consciousness, it’s an unfortunate necessity nowadays hacking is as simple as copy and paste or sending you a cord to plug in with a product … cheers.
