Decent Wireless WIFI cameras
on June 28, 2018
Posted by: Nathan R.
Easy to setup and update, battery lasts quite awhile. My only complaint is that they take awhile to recognize motion and record. Example: leaving the house and walking to the backyard, the camera doesn't start recording until I'm already around the corner of the house (10 seconds). I just wish it would record sooner upon recognizing the motion. Yes I've tried every "sensitivity" setting on them.

Horrible

The fact that this still has a high price doesnt make sense... I just bought this and both cameras didnt even last a year. They both dont send notifications and always say offline now. I cant even get them to update, let alone stay on for more than a minute. Very displeased. One camera can pair but goes offline easily and the other one just flashes purple.. Like how
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My girlfriend and I bought the wireless cameras for outside. We have the settings turned down to save the battery but even with that the batteries last about 8 hours didn’t have a problem with them until I did the film ware update. We’ve had them for about 3 weeks now and absolutely regret buying them

Poor battery and miss the start of any movement

Frequency of use:Daily
I am much like the other reviews here! Battery life last 5-6 days on the lowest setting despite advertising saying it would only require charging 3-4 times a year which was a large selling point. Also the recording doesn’t not start until the movement is 3/4 of the way across the screen.
Definitely requires some improvement.
I will say ease up setup was positive!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us and sharing your feedback on our Swann Wire-Free Security Camera. We are sorry to hear about the issues you experienced with the battery and motion detection on this camera. 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 and battery life as too much sensitivity can reduce battery life.

We will share your feedback with our product development team to help address your concerns within the near future.

Please let us know how we may further assist you,

Thank you.
