24 hour back scroll Function
on February 26, 2026

Would be nice if it had a function where you can tap into the cam and scroll back through live video maybe 24 hours at least.

It works!

I live in the absolute middle of nowhere Missouri and the cam works. There is a couple minute transmit lag from capture to receive but that's better than I thought it would be. My only complaint is that It would be nice if you could put multiple cams on one subscription.

Defend 360 user review
on March 12, 2026
Posted by: Paul D.
Likes: quality manufacturing, integrated solar, reasonable bandwidth fee, decent pics and vids, PTZ works well.
Dislikes: the big dislike is that you can only receive pics on the app or website - and crucially not by email. So in effect it’s a closed system. My old cam would also email you pictures, so I could set up and email forward on my inbox, and the pic would automatically get routed to people I wanted to see it. (BTW they also all saw the camera’s brand name on the photo - good marketing for the cam company. )
So Defend forces you into their app or website - a closed system.
I need to buy 11 more cams and sadly I will not be buying Tactacam for this reason.
Other dislikes: the app is oddly complex.
You see the incoming pic in one area, but you have to go to another tab to see the previous ones. Why?
Likewise, you can request HD photos and videos to be sent to the app, but you go to a third tab to see those.
Also, when you request an HD photos, you first get this jargon-ish notification (see uploaded screen shot). The “1 photo” notice seems to be wrong; I have downloaded multiple and never received a surcharge.
The second note about the photo not appearing on various places, I still don’t fully understand what it is trying to tell me.
Summary: a pretty good device whose value is diminished by its closed approach to managing pictures, and an oddly complex app.

Cost more per month than advertised

First month was great, so we decided to get the year plan and then everything changed. Now I cant even get live view. Camera is good when working but bad company.
