Back to the drawing board...
Great idea but I think they rushed this to market. This home security system is lacking some basic key features that most systems on the market come standard with. Setup is easy and I love the complete wire free feature. The antennas are choppy and inconsistent with both WiFi and the sync module. I have a high powered router so signal should be great from anywhere around my one story home. The "instant on" feature doesn't work so well or at all. I am always capturing ghosts. If a person or object walks by the camera and doesn't hang around, the camera fails to capture anything but thin air. The 10sec record time and delay between the next record just adds to this issue, as does the weak IR sensor. The sensitivity settings don't work either. Even when set to level 1 I still get false positives multiple times per day. The app lacks any zone masking of any kind which adds to the library of false positives. When I share a video via email the receiving party can't open it. Although it shows as an mp4, the phone, computer or other device can't play it. It was a mistake to use an LED illuminator over the standard IR for night illumination. Also the IR for motion detection was a mistake as well. One would like to use this behind a window but can't accomplish this because of the limited IR detection function. I hope they can get their act together and put a real deal system on the market. I will gladly purchase a system with some much needed improvements.
