Q: How clear is the video quality, especially when projected on a large TV or monitor?

A: Absolutely crisp. With its 3-megapixel sensor and Full HD 2304x1296 resolution, the video is sharp and detailed. Whether you're checking in on your phone or viewing the feed on a larger screen, you'll be able to see fine details clearly, like what someone is holding or facial features.

Q: Can I really talk and listen through the camera from anywhere?

A: Yes, you can! The built-in microphone and speaker provide full two-way audio. Simply use the companion app on your smartphone to activate the talk feature. It's perfect for soothing a pet, asking a delivery person to leave a package in a specific spot, or speaking directly with family members at home while you're away.

Q: How well does the night vision work in a completely dark room?

A: It works very effectively. The camera automatically switches to infrared (IR) night vision when the light gets low. You'll get a clear black-and-white video feed that allows you to see everything in the room, providing reliable monitoring even while everyone is asleep and the lights are off.

Q: Is it difficult to set up and connect to my Wi-Fi?

A: Not at all. The setup process is designed to be user-friendly. You'll download the app, plug in the camera, and follow the simple on-screen instructions to connect it to your home's 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. It typically takes just a few minutes to get it up and running.

Q: Do I need a subscription to store and review recorded video?

A: No subscription is required for basic recording. The camera supports a microSD card (up to 128GB) for local, continuous, or event-triggered recording. You can also often set it up to save video to a Network Attached Storage (NAS) device on your home network.

Q: How does the pan and tilt function work? Can I control it remotely?

A: Yes, remote control is the key feature. Using the app on your phone, you can swipe on the screen or use directional arrows to rotate the camera horizontally 355 degrees and tilt it vertically 110 degrees. This lets you scan the entire room from wherever you are, giving you a much wider view than a fixed camera.

Q: Will the camera work if my home internet goes down?

A: If the internet is down, you will lose the ability to access the camera remotely from outside your home. However, if you have a microSD card installed, the camera can continue to record footage locally based on its settings. You would be able to access that recorded footage directly from the camera once your local network is restored.

Q: Can more than one person view the camera feed at the same time?

A: Yes, typically multiple family members can be granted access. You can usually share access within the app by inviting other users via their email addresses, allowing everyone in the household to check the live view or recordings on their own devices simultaneously.
