I’ve got this set up to monitor my conservatory doors. It’s integrated with Apple HomeKit so you can view it live on your TV, if you have AppleTV, and on your phone. I’ve basically got it set up so if it detects motion after I go to bed, all the Hue lights in the house turn on. If night vision isn’t on, it can detect motion through glass at night. It does sometimes disconnect but I think that’s to do with how far away it is from the router. It recently had a firmware update and hasn’t happened as much since, so maybe it was that!
Considering getting another to keep an eye on the dog!
A very good camera and hun for my HomeKit I was surprised at the quality for the price. I would recommend this camera
Works so well that the motion detection is almost to sensitive
This camera is a great start if you’re wanting to protect your home with CCTV. Got this set up with an Appletv home hub and it provides great cloud storage and access to lots of other devices. Got a PIR sensor for the same company that now turns on the porch light when someone approaches the front door.
I previously tried a cheaper camera, made by an offshoot of a well know accessory supplier, that supposedly offered HomeKit support, but was disappointed. The Aqara G2H is so far excellent – well worth spending the extra over the other one. I think using HomeKit, this has been the easiest to setup security camera I’ve ever come across, without the need to use any suspect third-party apps or accounts.
This camera is really good and also works with apple HomeKit, it was really easy to set up, you just scan the QR code on the bottom and the camera instantly gets added to your home app, no need to enter WiFi details or anything, I’m using mine with apple secure video and it’s working really well
Seriously the quality of the camera is brilliant, I get a notification as soon as the door is opened when I’m away, just 2 mins up the road she was in, so I turned around a caught her out.
On a lighter note this is well worth the money and connects natively to my iPhone home app, I can see so many uses for this when I finally move home, Aqara is well made, it has a magnetic base and will stick to the metal under the plaster on the walls so no need to drill any holes.
All in all I’m very happy with my purchase
Hi
While these may not be as pretty as Logitech’s camera
They perform a lot better.
I’ve been having a rewire of my property so the power has been turned off and on a lot.
These cameras reconnected every time without me having to do anything unlike logitechs that have to be reset and deleted from HomeKit and reinstalled.
They integrate with homekit very well and they have an app for updates. And they do everything that logitechs cameras do Such as face recognition and activity zones but I am yet to try these.
Get these not Logitech and they’re are also cheaper.
The photos are to show the quality of the night vision.
Installation and setup is easy, picture quality is good, not great, integration with Homekit and your photos (with iOS 15 – I think) is great, it notifies me when the kids are back from school and can recognise my dog waiting by the front door for me to come home, you can customise these notifications to what works for you.
I had to download the manufacturer’s app to update the firmware but didn’t have to create an account to do it, good on them for that feature.
Overall I’m happy with the purchase and will be likely buying more.
I was looking for a not expensive but working Homekit camera.
Overall, if all the conditions are met, it is very easy and fast to configure as a Homekit device and then it seems it works OK so far. I don’t need superior quality, it is just a security device, I needed Homekit to easily upload videos about activity in the hallway to the cloud. It does the job.
However, you can’t find it anywhere in their description that if your wireless network name contains any special characters, you can’t connect it to Homekit (strangely, their own app works). Since many internet service providers use hyphen (-) in their default wireless network name on their router you get, this is a problem. Therefore I had to rename my wireless network. Once there are only alphanumerical characthers in the name of wireless network, it works.
Works just as promised, very happy with the HomeKit compatibility. Look forward to adding to the collectio
This is the first HomeKit camera I installedOn my system very easy to set up great product picture quality is superb magnetic mount is very strong haven’t used the zigby hub section Yet as I don’t have any zigbe devices The Wi-Fi connection is reliable and strong picture quality is good even when zooming In using the screen on my phone picture quality also good on large TV
The issue I had and its not a fault of machine more homekit is there is no flip view mode for the camera, However the camera has a magnetic base so for three quid I made a quick bracket so I can hang it correct way up in the garage. (I did read install the app and switch it round there but when you do that and then revert to secure it loses it).
I think biggest gripe for me is the price its just too expensive against its competitors – Seems homekit part is attracting apple tax
