These cameras are fantastic, well worth the price pics are clear, speech is clear etc. I would also like to point out the customer service with this company is first class, I’ve had a few problems setting up and with payment – they talked me through everything and couple of days later emailed me to check if I had managed to get everything sorted etc – nothing is a problem to them
We got this camera to keep an eye on our new puppy when we were trying to crate train him. We’ve not wall mounted it yet, as we’re moving . It has a superb quality image and small design. I like that you can use the app to change the angles you see and chat through the camera to reassure or give instructions to him. Would recommend.
Got this for a dog who had a serious operation and had to be confined to a baby playpen 2x2metres.
Was very easy to connect to androud phone, I hate setting up new devices but had it up and running in 10mins.
Two way speak, handy when I check it and not in room to speak and calm her. Put it on at night and can hear if she wakes and is crying/pain. Night vision is perfectly clear. Can even see her clear cone of shame and chest rising up and down when breathing.
Was even able to keep an eye on her in shop.
Gives peace of mind and willbuse it for security in shed.
This is my second Wansview camera, which I use for watching the dogs whilst we’re out. They are a good quality and easy to set up. The only very small issue is that you can’t share accounts on the app and there need to set up a second account with family members and then invite them in.
The first camera I ordered stopped working after a couple of days however, Luna was very helpful. She explained what the issue could be, then replaced the camera very quickly when we identified there was an issue with the camera. The camera works very well, clear images. I am satisfied with the product and customer service.
i bought this as i was supposed to be going away on holiday for 3 weeks and i wanted to be able to check in on my cat. obviously, i had someone coming to take care of her every day but i was always worried about something happening like a fire and just wanted to be able to check in on her as i would miss her so much!
it was easy to set up and i use it almost every day to check in on my cat while i’m out! night vision activates automatically when the light gets too low as well, which is brilliant! as you can see, the eyes are a little spooky staring at you in the dark…
you can talk to your pet through the camera as well which is a really nice feature.
I’ve had him over a year now, and he’s my best working spy. He’s hard at work surveying my land right now (the garden) has an impressive rotation and night visio
Wasn’t expecting much for the price but I am shocked by how good it is. Easily setup once I’d turned 5ghz off on my router and the camera was up and running in ten minutes. The bracket isn’t amazing but it does the job and it’s discreet enough. Will be buying more
This was very easy to set up, really good picture quality, movement good. It connects to the app really well even abroad and the sound quality is ok too.. Only downside is it needs to be near the edge of the thing it is standing on to get a full view of the room.
I bought this petcam for peace of mind while on holiday. It really is good although I had to change my router settings to be only 2.4 ghz. I have the cloud storage so I don’t know how well it works with just an SD card. The alerts are great with the motion sensor. It records a video clip of whatever sets it off or you can just have a photo. You can also schedule alerts if you want to or can turn them off. I would recommend.
I needed to purchase a camera quickly before going on holiday to protect our back garden and i ended up choosing this. I always read reviews before purchasing anything to ensure it will cover exactly what i was needing and always write reviews when i feel the product is what is advertised. I was surprised by the quality of the camera for the price, and the scope of the movement is such a great feature, it has a lot of features and the usability is so easy to learn and get used to. The app is a good simple app to use and straight forward to easily view activations and download them when required. I took advantage of the 30 day free trial of the cloud storage to see whether i would benefit from it and it is very good to have the piece of mind and easy access at a click of a button regardless where you are. I managed to enjoy our holiday knowing i could check our garden when required. Would definitely recommend.
Excellent camera for the price. Good image. Often goes off without capturing anything, which is a bit annoying during the early hours, even though adjusted the sensitivity. Purchased to monitor my cat whilst on holiday, so false readings frustrating. Also needs to be plugged in at all times, so restricts where the camera can be placed, due to placement of sockets.
The reason I’ve given 4 stars is the lack of information/instructions it’s a matter of trying things to see how it works. Apart from that seems excellent but as I’ve only had it working fo 4 hours a bit early to tell. But so far so good and great delivery
I bought this camera to keep an eye on a new puppy while out. I wasn’t disappointed, I thought for the price it probably wouldn’t be up to much, how wrong was I, its a great camera.
These were recommended to me by my brother and a vast improvement on my last cam. Easy to set up, lovely clear pictures, can track my pets when I’m not at home now, really helps with peace of mind. Great motion detection, have one covering my back garden and back door for security, would definitely recommend
I got a couple of these cameras to put in 90 year old Mum’s house so I could check in during the day -they are excellent – I have bought a further two to put facing the garden and upstairs so I can cover more area. The image is very clear – the only problem I have is Mum keeps moving them, but the ability to move the camera from phone means I can get a view, until I can get them put back into correct place. The brackets don’t really work if they need to on a flat surface, or at least I cannot get them to stay still 🙂
The camera was cery easy to setup and install using the app! I love that it has a step by step guide and an interface that even my wife could follow along! We use it with our daughter and can keep track of her movements and sleep during the night in the crib.
Easy to use and wonderful item. Great movement alerts and intuitive interface.
10/10 product!
Love everything about it… I bought two of them already, a white one, and a black one… Just left one on the kids bedroom so I can control them while I’m downstairs… Went abroad on holiday and I could check my living room from distance… I’m very satisfied…
Really sturdy camera. It’s got good vision and easy to set up with the simple instructions. We use our two cameras for our two baby girls and it’s easy to monitor both at the same time. We needed a camera that had really good range and it’s brilliant with the notifications. Great, easy to use produc
Really good camera. The image quality is excellent and was easy to install – took a few minutes.
The app is really easy to use. I have 5 of these cameras now and one of them wasn’t working so I contacted their customer support, the process was simple and easy and Judy resolved the issue – thank you very much
This product is fantastic for the money. I don’t usually write reviews, but felt this needed it. Will definitely be buying another 2 for my upstairs
Easy to set up, not laggy, sound and microphone is very good, motion detects really good too.
If you’re after a security camera and think going cheap is not the best idea, you’re wrong, best value for money
The camera is wonderful. I bought it as a secondary monitor, for when my baby sleeps in her crib in my room, as she has a monitor fixed above her cot in her room, which she naps in during the day. Having this secondary camera gave me comfort to relax with my husband in the evenings before we headed to bed.
Now that our daughters permanently in her cot, we will either use the camera as a security camera for inside the house, or portable baby monitor for when we are away.
I had some issues setting up this device but the support team member Judy was fantastic at helping me get the camera operating. One thing to note, if you have an Eero 6 Pro you should switch off advanced security during setup.
I’m using the Q5 camera to monitor the back door where my dog likes to chew things and it was easy to link up to my Nest Display in my home office. A perfect and inexpensive camera with great image quality and infrared at night time.
Bought this camera to be able to keep an eye on the dogs while I’m at work and I’ve got to say it’s worked perfectly out of the box with no issues.
The camera quality is brilliant and clear even when I’m on mobile data.
The app is easy to use with a talk function and alarm function which I use a lot to stop the dogs from being naughty!
You can rotate the camera from the app to see more of the area
I would highly recommend this camera!
Really great camera. The system works really well for my needs. The play back function is sufficient for me at the minute without having to subscribe but it seems easy to do should I need to. I mainly watch the feed live.
The image quality is good.
Easy to install.
The app is easy to use as well.
I have a few of these cameras now and I had an issue with one of them that I needed to contact their customer support, the process was simple and easy and their simple solution resolved the issue – thanks!
I found this camera was very easy to set up. The range of motion is great. I use the camera with an Amazon basics 128gb microSD card. The functionality of the app is fantastic. Even without a paid subscription you can set up different viewpoints and set the sensitivity of the motion detector. It records short videos if motion is detected and you can download these to your device. It really puts my mind at ease that I can visually check when away from the property. I can view the camera on both my tablet and mobile, and it was easy to set up on multiple devices. I have been using it for a month now, with no issues. This is a really fantastic camera and app, and I’ll definitely be ordering more of these cameras in the future.
The audio quality – honestly, it’s not top-notch, but considering the price, it’s totally acceptable. The speaker feature gets the job done, although it’s not super clear. You can still have a conversation or listen in.
As for the picture quality, it could be better, but it’s good enough for most situations. Don’t expect high-definition stuff, but for everyday monitoring, it gets the job done. And again, considering the price tag, I’m not complaining.
To record, you’ll need to buy a separate memory card or sign-up for cloud recording. Cloud recording has three Subscription options and comes with an initial free trial. Each plan offers various add-ons and billing options including annually/monthly/quarterly. The Basic (Standard) plan offers 7-day motion recording for up to 3 devices, the ablity to share a device with up to 5 people, alerts with image previews and the ability to quickly look back through recordings, all for 5.99 per month (or 5.00 per month if billed annually).
If you’re on the hunt for a user-friendly camera that won’t break the bank, the Wansview WiFi IP Camera is a solid choice.
This camera is great. I got it due to my Foster cat giving birth so I can keep and eye on the little family. Visuals and sounds are excelle
The picture quality is amazingly sharp and a bonus is that you can use your fingers to enlarge the image being transmitted making it easy for us to see if any licking/nibbling of the wound site was happening. Night vision mode is very good too as is the audio function. Overall I am very impressed with the camera and also the customer service contact Judy.
The motion detection is very good along with quality and night vision, overall this is a fantastic product and I use it on the daily.Thank you.
Had a few connection issues to start with but soon sorted itself (not sure if it was my internet?). Great communication with staff to try and sort issue. Perfect for keeping a eye on my puppy.
I bought the camera so that we could keep an eye on our puppy.
It was easy to set up. The quality of the feed and night vision is excellent.
The controls via my phone are simple to use.
I’m very pleased with my purchase.
I’m hoping this doesn’t happen with this camera as well, because so far, it has exceeded my expectations completely. For the price, this Wansview camera has an excellent 2K picture, clear and sharp, both in daylight and night modes. It’s IR night mode is is bright and clearer than most other similar cams and the software has all the usual features for moving and controlling the camera. It has 2 nice features that I’m impressed with, the first is a position setting, where you can set your camera in your favourite position and save it. You can then move the camera instantly to that position just by clicking on the link you created! You can create several links for several positions and there’s even a screencap to make it easy to remember. The second feature that I like is the “replay” feature which is available when you use their cloud service (I am trying out their 30 day free tial!), you can instantly replay a live feed directly from the cloud service, something that might actually compel me to register for the cloud service after the trial!
All in all, it’s a great camera for the price, with all the added features and 2K image quality, well worth every penny! Time will tell how long the camera will last, but as of now, it feels and looks like it was well made with pride and I’m hoping it will last a lot longer than most others I bought for a similar price!
Good quality camera, easy to set up and keep an eye on my pet when not at home. Can easily move it about to view different sides of the room.
Wasn’t really expecting too much with the price but this camera is actually fab! Really clear night vision and easy to move around to check the whole room. The installation is easy and quick and definitely recommend
Bought one for the living room to watch my dog when I’m at work a few months ago, so impressed with how clear the images are that I bought another one for the dining room.
Used these for several years now, simple, straightforward, no rip off subscription (if you want to it’s your choice).
My only grumble 28.99 on Tuesday, order 2 new one old ones in purfect condition but picture crystal clear on thenew 2K, but today Friday 23.99!!!!
Not happy Amazon.
Quick delivery, easy to set up. I use this one to check on my dogs. I have 4 wansview cameras. 2 outside and 2 indoor, not had any problems with any of them. Great camera, great price.
This is an amazing piece of kit for the price! The picture resolution is excellent. It’s extremely easy to set up and use. It’s got a siren on it so that if someone does get into your house, the alert lets you know and you can turn the siren off and even talk to the intruders.
I can’t praise it enough
It’s easy to use, but it when want to watch a life video with sound, it makes some strange noice, echo, may be confusing, wish it didn’t have that strange noice
Bought this after reading other reviews. Very easy to set up, camera will talk to you during the process. A little bit complicated getting the app to recognise the micro sd card once inserted but got there in the end. Picture quality is very good for such a cheap camera. May buy a second one.
I’ve had this camera for a few weeks and find it a good camera. The Pan/Tilt/Zoom is very useful. The one thing I would like to see improved is the PC app, I find it too basic and lacking the functionality of the Android mobile app. All in all a good camera.
Good product.
Unable to zoom in out though
Good resolution
Sound quality is low. Doesnt go up when you speak in mic over the app
Difficulty in sharing on multiple devices so just logged in from my own id n two devices
Overall its good
This camera is amazing for the price, giving you 2k video which looks lovely and crisp, ,whilst at the same time, allows you to see almost 360 of the surrounding environment.
Unbeatable price for a camera that offers so many great features, especially in our current financial crisis. The camera is totally controllable by your mobile phone or tablet, which gives you piece of mind when you are away from your home.
The camera comes with a mount, which makes it very easy to place it anywhere in your home. This camera is brilliant, it would be silly to overlook this Wansview product (to note,I have 4 cameras set up in and around my home).
Great value for money, arrived next day of ordering and set up within minutes. I had initially bought another camera from a different supplier that took 10 days to deliver and was useless so took a punt on this one and I think it’s great. Night vision is very good, pic quality in general is good.
Found there is a slight delay when using the mic and toggling the view when I’m out but it’s ok.
Overall at this price I think it’s a good unit and would buy again.
I’ve had this camera for a couple of years and I’m thinking of getting another one as it is so good. I’m able to check on my pets when I am on holiday. I recently changed Broadband and couldnt reconnect the camera but a quick email to the support staff quickly resolved my issue. They were very helpful. It is also so easy to us the app. I would highly recommend this camera.
I use this to monitor our cats coming in and out of the house when we are away. It is easy to set up. I don’t pay any monthly charges. It is easy to see my cats in the house via the app, even with no lights on. I can turn the camera remotely and even listen / talk if I wanted to.
I’d definitely buy this again.
I didn’t expect these to be great quality given the price but it is absolutely spot on. Hopefully they won’t break after a few weeks but these are all you’d ever need. I have one in every room. Dogs get a bit confused when I say something through them whilst at work. One of them is so clever that she knows I’m not really here and ignores whatever I’m saying The other one is less clever though and listens
I installed this cam and I can recommend this easily.
Me & Mrs are trying to use App simultaneously but its not letting us.
Cam quality is good.
Night vision still I am trying to find how it will work. Its all black & white light where we can not see anything but light.
Great little camera for the price! The pictures are super clear and the alerts are spot on! I have already talked family and friends into get one.
Excellent picture quality, easy set up does exactly what I want it to do. Covers inside of my Motorhome so I can check on it from anywhere as long as my Motorhome internet is on.
brought this camera to monitor my puppy while im at work.
pros: video quality is really good, night vision also good, handy to be able to talk through it.
cons: theres a 2/3 second delay, screen goes white occasionally for 2/3 seconds, the app crashes once or twice a day if your using it for long periods.
Paying only 22. for it, im very happy and it does what i need it to. i didnt use the motion detect so i cant comment on this but all round good camera
I have purchased 4 of these cameras and using them for my home Security, connecting the cameras to the Internet takes less than a couple of minutes for each camera and Picture quality is excellent, You can set each camera individually to let you know once the camera detects movement giving you a warning on your mobile phone tablet or computer where ever you have an Internet connection, each camera comes with a very sturdy adjustable bracket for wall mounting, and when you’re all set up you have the option of connecting to the cloud or getting an sd card, so you have controllable camera with excellent picture quality simple to setup I don’t think you could ask for much more at that price.
Very happy with the camera. Quality of the picture is great works as its supposed to . I really enjoy the motion detection notifications and the siren/alarm if i need to activate it.
For the price i would recommend it.
I bought this not expecting it to be as good as it is.
It was very easy to set up,the motion detection is about right when set midway in the settings.
The picture on your phone is good enough, so if you had an intruder you could give it to the police.
The app works well and I can check on my house when I’m out and get alerts when it detects motion.
I’m so impressed I’ve ordered another one to look after upstairs when I’m away.
A requirement for me was that this supported RTSP so I could connect it to my existing NVR system and this works perfectly well. There’s two RTSP streams available, low resolution and full. The camera has no problems serving both at the same time. It also is able to be mounted upside down and flip the image.
I initially had a question regarding setup and contacted the customer support, who got back to me promptly and gave me the information I needed.
I’ve only had it a couple of weeks but it seems reliable so far.
Not a bad indoor camera, good for short distances. Night vision works well in the room.
Night vision needs to be switched off when viewing through a window as the reflection from the window interferes.
The motion detector is triggered by light or shadows egz. from passing cars illuminating the objects under observation.
Easy once set up to use through the app. 4 users can access the app so great for multiple family members. We use it for checking on our pet. When working.
Set up wasn’t easy has had to change WiFi settings to use but contacted support and help provided.
Speaker could do with being louder but hardly use.
We have three Wansview cameras, two outdoor and one indoor which we use to monitor our son who has epilepsy. We have used these cameras coming up to two years now & we have found the customer service especially amazing. The cameras are fantastic and very reliable, our in door one has eased my mind when letting my son sleep and the outdoor ones have offered me a great sense of home security.
The setup was easy – just a few illustrated images in the instruction manual.
The USB cable and power plug that came with the camera was long enough to reach from the floor to the ceiling! The camera is light enough that mounting it on plaster board or other fragile walls isn’t a worry.
The camera can be paned and tilted via the app using a little 4 way arrow controller. Movement is smooth and quick. A full rotation around takes just 3 seconds.
What really stood out to me was the night vision mode – the black and white images produced in total darkness by an invisible IR LED (940nm) (not the red glowing 800nm kind!) is clear, bright and totally not grainy. This is great for seeing details in a dark room. The IR illuminator can be turned off (via the app) so you can point the camera through glass to see outside without bright reflections making the video too bright to see. You need an IR light outside of course!
The camera supports two way audio – to the camera, and from the camera which is nice.
A “USB A extension cable” can be easily bought anywhere online that sells USB cables, to increase the included power cables length on the off-chance you need extra length.
The basic web service is free – which means you can view the camera, and control it anywhere in the world if your phone has internet access at the time. The extra features are to store video and images, and alters in “the cloud” which is extra.
The camera comes with a little mount screw and hinge with screws for the wall, and can even be screwed into a small tripod if you already have one, or simply stood on a book case.
In a pinch you CAN power the camera using a USB power-bank for a completely mobile security solution which will run for a day or two on an average sized power bank before it needs recharging.
The app supports up to 4 cameras in a little menu that shows them 2×2 on the screen, and each can be zoomed in to see their details.
I had an issue where the power failed and the camera didn’t reconnect to my WiFi.
I contacted Customer Services in the UK (from the manufacturers website) and just overnight I got some instructions for tweaking my camera settings which worked first time. They were fast, and very helpful. I know if I have any questions in the future support won’t leave them unanswered.
To sum up – It’s a great camera – and especially for the price! I’m going to buy a couple more for other rooms.
I’ve only had it for just under a week, but so far it has been excellent. Video quality is great and being able to pan and tilt from the app works perfectly. It supports RTSP and ONVIF so can be recorded on a local computer. Fantastic value.
Be aware that it can be a bit fussy about WiFi – I found the nearest access point it was connected to was delaying or dropping packets stopping the camera working. A replacement WAP sorted the problem.
The night vision is excellent, and I have clear visibility of my mother at night, so can see if she has any falls. I can also see the cooker controls in the kitchen, when it’s in total darkness, so can be reassured that everything has been switched off after use.
Set up was relatively easy but it’s helpful to have a bit of technical knowledge as the cameras must be paired with broadband in the property. After downloading the Wansview app to a smartphone, and following the instructions, the cameras talk you through the process (which is a bit alarming when you’re not expecting them to speak!). I’ve configured the app to show four rooms simultaneously in a ‘quad view’ but can easily switch to single rooms. I’ve also linked Wansview to my Alexa Echo Show devices so I can view my mother when I’m watching TV or using the phone or computer. There is a delay when viewing through Alexa devices, and it’s not possible to communicate through them, but they do serve a useful purpose by increasing the duration of monitoring.
It’s possible to give other people access to individual camera feeds, so I’ve been able to share the monitoring with my sister, which has been a great help. I’ve also just spent a week in Austria and it’s incredible that I could hear the app alerts on the ski slopes and continue to check in, and communicate with my mother, despite the absence of Wi Fi.
I’ve had the cameras for over 12 months now, and had a few technical issues, however the customer support has been excellent. I first got in touch with the support team when I discovered it wasn’t possible to orientate the quad view on an iPad. They got their technical team onto it, and issued a software update, so that is now possible. I’ve also had occasional issues when the cameras have lost connection with the server, or when I haven’t been able to view one or more cameras on the Alexa Echo Show. However, the customer support team guided me through the process each time, and the issues are now resolved.
The cameras are very cost-effective and don’t require a cloud subscription if an optional SD card is used (only needed to record 10 second motion detection). In terms of future developments, it would be great if the cameras were able to follow movement around the room, maintain more consistent connection with server, and zoom in with better resolution.
Have had a few problems over time mainly with SD card recordings
1) a couple of times no SD recording occurred for a 24hrs period & no amount of ‘fixing’ cured it – but leaving the camera alone until following day & it seems to fix itself & start recording normally
2) Sometimes it just doesn’t record to SD card at all at random times.. I’m guessing because card is full even though I’ve set to ‘over right older recording’ – I usually have to take card out, back up videos & then reformat (I use ‘genuine’ Samsung 128Gb Speed 10 SD card) not sure why it stops recording to card for no apparent reason
3) I find forcing it to use B/W at night give a clearer picture HOWEVER in App the Timeline Preview show an inverted screen mainly all white with bit of grey BUT on Video playback in App – the video is just fine. Have contacted Wanviews about this ‘bug’ but so far nothing been done (see picture)
4) The ‘Motion Detection window’ is rectangular & adjusted by edges however my camera placement is slightly ‘angular’ (looking down street’, so movement detects areas of ‘heavy traffic’ (cars passing) so get a lot of ‘useless’ video. Would be nice if the detection window could be adjusted using corners & can get more ‘rhombus’ or triangular shaped detections windows so it can only pick up on pavement for example
Had a slight technical issue but received assistance super quick. Great customer service & happy with the product.
Excellent picture quality, brilliant Night vision. Well worth the money.
What I do take issue with, and this is a very big issue, is that there is no setting to control the level of darkness in which the IR lights are activated. This is highly annoying and at night time, in a well lit room, the camera repeatedly clicks due to the IR lights being activated and deactivated. It stands to reason that the threshold for level of darkness in which IR lights are activated are set too high and without the ability to control this (except for switching off IR from within the app), the click is so annoying that I am considering returning the product for a refund. It’s a shame because there is very little to fault with other aspects.
Wansview were unable to provide any assistance regarding adjusting the level of sensitivity of triggering IR on/off, not even API documentation which could allow me to control this.
I’m quite impressed with the cam with this price tag. It has all the features I need. The only thing that can be improved is the range of motion, I wish it can go further down.
Really happy with this product excellent image day and nigh
Excellent camera, Easy to set up
Very happy with the quality of the produc
Very easy to set up picture quality is amazing
I’m using it to keep an eye on my dogs and it’s great you can talk to them and they liste
Bought for watching our dog while we are at work. It’s brillia
Easy to set up, Very good Quality. I’m recommend this
Great camera. Bought to keep an eye on our new puppy. Has been fantastic for toilet training. Works and does what it says. Defintely up there in great investments for all it costs. Defintely recommend
Great camera, clear night vision, the only negative is the video recordings are a little too short, unless you subscribe.
I needed a camera to live screen my kids in bed when I am out of earshot and quick reach. Works perfectly, no subscription needed. Very happy.
I have two of these units and they have been excellent. I have had a couple of small issues over the last 2 years, but a quick email to the helpline, gets you a detailed response and resolution in hours. Thanks to Sophia for your recent help. Highly recommended
I’ve had this camera less than a year and unfortunately it broke . Prior to that it was working amazingly . The sellers quickly dealt with the issue and I now have a new one . It’s really clear picture and allows me to check everything is ok at home. I would just say the night vision isn’t great .
Bought this as I have recently rescued a dog and wanted to know she’s okay when I have to leave her just to go grocery shopping etc. It’s great that I can talk to her and also if she’s stressed I can calm her down. It’s not often I leave her but there’s certain places I can’t take her into and I wouldn’t want to leave her in the car so this camera has solved my problems and worries
This baby camera us fantastic. Simple to set up, great picture and sound quality.
I used this to monitor my rabbits when out and it was grea
I bought this camera for monitoring the baby. I used for couple of months and suddenly was offline and couldn’t connect to the Wi-fi. Then I contacted by email the Wansview team, Judy was supporting me with indications and even video how to connect back to the Wi-fi but without results, it was a technical problem. Because it was still under warranty, I received a replacement next day. They are responding quick and are very helpful. I onestly recommend the product, the quality of the image is FHD, is not blocking like others.
This is a great addition to our home , allows us to know our guy is okay while we pop out which has helped us both with anxiety wondering if he was okay while allowing us abit more freedom .
Cant recommend this enough . This company has offered great customer service and Irecommend their products
Got this camera delivered very quickly. I had some issues getting this working since the camera wouldn’t connect to wifi. throgh speaking with the support team, we managed to get this working once it was connect to mobile data. Issue was the camera firmware and once updated it connected with no issues to wifi 🙂
Bought this Camera to keep an eye on our Dog, does exactly what we needed and more.
Couldn’t be happier with this product.
Easy to set up, easy to use very good picture all round very good
Really good quality camera, the pictures are clear day and night. The camera is easy to set up and the app is very easy to use.
The only thing I would say is the motion detection isn’t amazing. You can change the levels of sensitivity on the app but even when it’s on really low I find I get motion detection alerts/notifications on my phone every couple of minutes when the cameras plugged in.
I was looking for something to replace my clever dog camera. This works really well and is much more adjustable – I’ve actually got it mounted sideways at the top of my back door. Very happy with the quality of the view in the app, I’m actually looking to get one for my parents.
Had some problems with the product and the customer service sorted it out quick. Recommend.
We got this for our puppy to keep an eye on him overnight or when we go out and it has totally surpassed my expectations. The picture quality is very good and the night vision is great. For the price I didn’t expect it to be anything like as good as it is. Also works well away from home accessing the app and we even used it abroad to check in and watch him! Have recommended to many friends now.
I Already have a static Wansview IP camera covering the rear of my home and decided to add a second camera to monitor the front. Set up was simple. It’s a pity that products like these will not set up on 5ghz network so after disabling the 5ghz network on my eero mesh I had the camera up and running in no more than 10 minutes. Alexa had a problem linking this camera so I disabled the skill and then re enabled the skill and I’m pleased to say both my existing camera and this one were identified with no problems.
I’m not to fussed about motion detection. Picture quality is good and there’s no lag between using the app and viewing images. I do however have a very good mesh system that ensures excellent connectivity.
In summary well worth the money.
Use out the window to keep an eye on car. Impressed with the image quality and ability to rotate it from my phone – loads of fun! Need separate accounts and sharing to view on multiple android devices (all free), not needed for pc version. When using with VLC, accessing via the Wansview app cut off the feeds and caused it to go down for a min, using with only 3rd party or Wansview is fine, plus the latter allows camera rotation. Good website with software downloads and guides. Happy with my purchase.
Having had many months of trouble free use, last weekend it went offline and I could not reconnect it.
Being a 69 year old technophobe I dread problems such as this. I contacted Wansview by email and was assisted brilliantly by Judy there. Her responses were quick, clear and patient and her efforts enabled me to sort the problem out. Support such as this is refreshing and I won’t hesitate to recommend Wansview cameras to anyone who asks me about them. Keep up the good work Judy and Wansview.
I am totally impressed with this camera. It was very easy to set up and install. The picture from the camera on my phone is clear and there’s only a slight delay on the video feed. I have used the microphone and can be heard clearly. The features all work as they should and I have yet to find any flaws. Thank you from a very happy customer.
We purchased this camera before a holiday in Australia (from the UK) in the hope of keeping in contact with our pet. Needless to say, the night vision feature was tested thoroughly, as was the audio link. Both performed above and beyond our expectations. Setting up the camera was also easy. We would certainly recommend this camera and will be buying more in the future (to cover the numerous hiding places around the house).
I use my camera to keep an eye on my bunny in the day when I’m working and night. The picture quality can be changed and very hight quality. The only downside which not all customers may face are when you are in an area of slow WiFi and data oy takes a while to position the camera
I Needed to be able to see elderly parents front and back doors. These cameras are excellent, picture quality is amazing even on night vision. Gives notifications when movement at doors. Like the fact that you can adjust them from the app. Mum knocked the front camera, I was able to put it back onto the front door without driving an hour to do it manually. I have the option to speak through them to see if mum is ok and there is an alarm you can press if you need too, all via the app.
I bought this camera in order to spy on my cat when I’m not home. As suspected, he sleeps A LOT!
I haven’t used motion detect or record as they’re not what I want. I found setting up for just viewing my home when I’m not there really easy and simple.
On night vision the screen goes blank from time to time but I don’t find that a problem – it’s only a little blip and then the image is back again.
For the price, it’s good quality and works well.
