We have had our car broken into twice whilst this camera has been 'on duty' and both times the camera did not work to capture the event. Would not recommend!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bought A package of 4 Swann wifi cameras. Had nothing but trouble keeping them active. Constantly missed movement around my home. 2 cameras failed after a firmware update was missed. Swann were very slow to respond and finally washed their hands of it telling me the cameras were out of warranty.
It doesn’t cover every angle, it constantly triggers from washing being on drying line yet doesn’t pick up delivery driver walking past it

Hello JBUK,
Thank you for reaching out to us and sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear about your most recent experience with our Wire-Free 1080p Smart Security Camera. This camera has a wide 120° viewing angle. PIR sensors work optimally when the camera is mounted around looking down somewhat and the subject of detection passes across their front. The more the object must "cross" the front of the camera the better the detection reliability. When placing your camera try to avoid situations where the subject would move straight toward the camera if possible. You may need to experiment with the sensitivity settings in the app and camera placement to get the ideal mix of detection. If you have not already, please reach out to a member of our 24/7 support team when you are in front of the unit.

I am still shell- shocked after the break-in. But I set up 5 camera set on Wednesday. At 2 am some kids broke in. Perhaps they knew my system was lame! The cameras were pointed in the right direction but captured no video for me to playback. i spent 3 hours programming the 5 cameras. I am tech savvy. The process was not simple. Now after literally 1 week on the walls, the batteries are depleted.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
