74.9% |
mysterious scratches"i initially bought this camera to monitor my pets as mysterious scratches were appearing on the dining room table reading wansview website they said their cameras were onvif compliant so would work with blueiris which i already have with outside cameras so no need for their cloud storage and all cameras in one place"

massive problem"there is only a second or 2 difference between the camera and your phone viewing so absolutely fine though the sound on mine isn't great you can understand what is being said so it's not a massive problem and it seems to be intermittent so may be some kind of interference from something electrical in my home or next door on the camera side"

very choppy"i’d like to see a smoother pan on the camera which is very choppy but this can be rectified until a fix is released by setting up the 4 favourite positions which then fixes this issue so for me it’s not a major problem and of course doesn’t stop the normal pan tilt action"
