First time user

Looking forward to using this product

Great product !

5-stars!!!

App only

Love everything but the fact that you can’t watch and check camera from a desktop/laptop computer

No longer able to use at live view

After the latest update, I can no longer use live view.

Pixels

Love the cameras- only complaint is I can’t zoom in on license plates or other objects clearly! 😟

Great camera But app needs work

Only complaint that I have with the whole set up is the app layout. If it was more like the Reveal app setup that would be amazing. Obviously one guys opinion doesn’t matter but the app just feels like it came out in 2011. I miss half the photos/videos it takes unless I go to the calendar and go day by day

Camera

Notifications a lil delayed & it should be easier to change to live mode to view camera.

Good camera

Good camera put wish it was clearer. I thought it would be clear enough to read license plates coming onto the property.

Outstanding

I have been waiting for this company to come out with this type of camera since they hit the market. This is the exact camera I have been looking for something that is Mobile something that is Solar.
Something that I can access remotely and I can manipulate remotely.
There are a few designs in the set up of the solar panel and the connection bracket that could be addressed to make that hook up easier and more adjustable other than that I am completely satisfied.

Defend

I Love it, works well❤️😊

Premium Defend360 Product with IOS Minor Issues

Excellent camera and overall app performance except for notification badge icons not showing up in IOS26.6. Notification banners are timely and normal ops. Numerous attempts at app reloads and phone notification resets. A premium product should demand a normal app functionality. Hopefully fixed by software developer soon.

Really nice

I really enjoyed how easy it was to set-up. It really looks like a well made product that will last over the years.

Works great!

We purchased two of these for our property.
They capture vehicles, humans, and our deer and turkey communities. They bring peace of mind.

Great cameras!

I love these cameras! They work as advertised. If I could change one thing it would be the notifications. I need the motion alert to be loud. It’s barely audible. Hopefully they can change that in some updates.

Defender

Camera works great for what it’s intended for

App is bug ridden

I consistently have issues when trying to close out of the viewer for both photos and live video feed. This is a fairly new camera system but I’ve had no issues with the old Tactacam app. Updates are warranted.

Easy set up

Works extremely good and I can’t believe how easy it was to set up five minutes maybe

Using for construction site monitoring

I love my Defend camera. I am using it to monitor a construction project I have going on 5 hours away from where I live. It’s great. I can not only see progress, but I have peace of mind knowing that people whom can see my project are aware that I am monitoring it as well.

PDK hound training

Really impressed with the new equipment easy setup been a customer for years

Nice And easy surveillance

Purchased two cameras for property monitoring the install was super simple and easy! As far as camera placements they recommend 8-10ft high I wouldn’t go any lower then 10’ ours are at 12’ up and I honestly wish I would have gone up a couple more feet. The issue is tilt on the camera only allows you to go up so much so if these are used down low i don’t think you’ll get a very good capture of the area and so if your thinking this be a nice trail camera make sure that thing is up in the air. The quality of pictures is great and has a really good range especially day time. The live feed is pretty nice but can be grainy especially if you zoom in any it gets very grainy and is almost kind of usless to be honest. To only issue I really that was a problem is that you can’t mount the solar panel separately from the mount the camera goes on it would have been nice to mount the panels if placed somewhere else Away from the camera especially if your trying to. Be inconspicuous. They give you a good awful amount of extra charging cable length so you kind of have to figure out how you want to keep it all tied up so why not have a separate mount idk.
But so far they’ve been great just like all the other cameras and services they have very easy to use and have been really trust worthy.
We will see how well they do come this winter when the snow starts flying if the panels keep them charged and if keeping snow off of them is gonna be an issue.
