## Review summary

User reviews praise the easy setup and decent video/audio with useful features like pan/tilt and event notifications. However, recurring problems reduce reliability: connectivity drops, firmware updates cause live-view and alert issues (sometimes with ads), the app is prone to glitches and slowness, and support can be inconsistent.

### Pros

- Very easy to set up and install
- Good video and audio quality when working
- Camera features like pan/tilt and close-ups
- Notifications for events (e.g., bird activity)

### Cons

- Frequent connectivity issues; cameras go offline or won't connect, often after updates
- Update/firmware issues disrupt live view, notifications, or connectivity and may introduce ads
- App glitches and slow performance; frequent crashes requiring resets
- Customer support is inconsistent or unresponsive
