Very good camera and app for the money & FESCH.TV:

I was looking for a few key features when I decided to get a doorbell cam:
1. Good person detection. I didn’t want alerts due to shadows, cars.
2. Option to use local storage to save on cloud fees.
3. Good app with timely alerts so I don’t miss folks at the door.
4. Good value… didn’t want to buy a Ring

The AI person detection is very good. It hasn’t missed a package being dropped off or someone coming up to the door as far as I can tell. This is a huge feature, as I had another wireless camera on the door, but it was picking up shadows, cars, and our flag waving about… even when setting a detection zone. So, this is 5 stars for motion detection.
I have an Android phone and their app is pretty good. I get alerts in a timely fashion so I can see people coming up to the door, packages being dropped off, and I’ve answered someone at the door when I’ve been out of town. All of this works well. One thing, and I saw someone else mention this, you’ll want to setup separate accounts to „share“ the phone with others in the house. Sharing out your credentials will only allow one person to be „logged into“ the camera at a time. Just setup a new account and share access with the new people and this works fine.
I’ve had the unit for about a month so far and the battery is at 35% now. This is pretty good since I have the motion detection sensitivity set to high, and the recording time set to 30 seconds. So, the camera is recording quite a bit to the local SD card as well as streaming video back to me when I check on it.
There are many options to setup the camera… cloud storage (I have not tried), limiting the recording interval, night vision (camera area is well lit at night, so I can’t say how well this feature works), alerting schedules, etc.
Installation is easy as I just used the double sided tape to mount it to my wall. Screws are included if you need those. You mount the holder and place the camera into it, then put in a screw at the bottom to secure the unit. If someone takes the camera out of the holder an alarm will go off (see my video) and you get an alert on the app. That’s a cool feature.
Setting up the accompanying doorbell alert inside the house was easy. Just put in the batteries and pair it with the unit. There are a few different ringtone like options.
Overall, I’m very happy with the unit… will update this review if anything changes.
