User Reviews

The SkyBell iOS app is praised for long-term reliability and effective notifications/talk, but repeatedly criticized for unstable live video, an outdated interface, and inconsistent notifications. Readiness of support varies; overall, the app quality appears inconsistent and has degraded for many users, despite hardware reliability.

Pros

Long-term reliability: SkyBell works well for years with notifications and video.
Reliable notification and two-way talk when someone is at the door, even remotely.
Easy to use once you learn the features.
Solid app support when needed.

Cons

Live video often crashes or is slow to load, causing missed moments.
App UX/UI is outdated and overall quality feels poor.
Notifications and event viewing can be inconsistent or missing.
Some users report degraded performance over time and uneven support.

Not very user-friendly it needs to be updated. I don’t really get why you can’t put in user-friendly software have the thing not glitch and make it easier to sign into Wi-Fi. I’d buy another one when this dies if you could do that, but apparently I’ll have to go to another manufacturer supplier.

I chose SkyBell because I wanted a video doorbell without expensive monthly monitoring fees. If you're shopping for a smart doorbell, be careful before signing up with a monitoring company. Many companies sell doorbells that require a monthly subscription for features you may not need. Before you buy, make sure the doorbell can be used with a free app and doesn't require a monitoring contract. SkyBell offers a free service tier for its standalone doorbells, although some dealer-installed or Alarm.com versions may require a paid monitoring plan. Read the fine print before purchasing so you know exactly what you're getting. Do your homework, compare your options, and don't assume every doorbell needs a monthly fee. You could save yourself a lot of money in the long run.
