Ratings and reviews

My motion sensor triggers evert time the wind blows the tree in my front yard. With this app, motion will only record if you allow notifications, so on a windy day I get MANY motion notifications and they're all my tree. Even on the lowest settings. I cannot block out the tree with Motion Zones unless I block out my entire front steps (defeats the purpose of a doorbell cam). Simple fix - let me turn off notifications while still recording.

The updated app is awful. The app will try to open by authenticating and starting the camera at the same time causing you to have to back out of multiple processes just to get to the app. The motion sensor at night is sensitive enough to see a gnat but incapable of catching a person walking around 24 inches in front of it. Never happened before the update. If you're using this for security or the most basic detection, it's absolutely useless. Okay if you want a manual way to check a camera

After being forced to the new app, my Skybell worked for a day or two. After that, it was blinking red and green for a couple of weeks without ever being able to reconnect. Now, the LED is the color I picked from the old app and no longer blinking. However, no matter how many times I reset it, it no longer sees ANY network connection, and I am no longer able to use this product as intended.
