Does pan and tilt camera has wall mount ? YES

Simultaneous live cam viewing is one key feature missing in Eufy App that is there in Wyze.
Wyze offers 2FA, eufy is yet to deliver on this a year into user complaints. Security concerns abound too with eufy's app and homebase hitting Facebook, google, etc and there's no way to block it that I know of. The latest is how the web GUI streams all your cameras regardless you turn them off from the app.
Last is a biggie. There was some recent server outages that rendered all my cameras useless. Initially they excused it as a server update but after the second one they said they started migration to AWS to meet the increasing demand.
Never happened with Wyze or Arlo and it was perplexing to me how Eufy actually thought they could handle this in-house. Based on their business practice releasing some crazy amount of products each year, lack of security, and shady connections I'd say they're bound for a breach soon.
In short Wyze and even Arlo seems to stand by its products and enforce security. Eufy seems to not care about security and its yet to prove they're not just out for sales and later implement planned obsolescence.
I spoke to Eufy on the phone and on live chat on the internet and when asked if an outage would happen - can my cameras still 100% work and I have total access to my recordings and they said yes, as they have NOTHING to do with the system once it is sold. I then asked about the outages we have all experienced and read examples people have posted on here and the Eufy community pages....and their reply was that they know NOTHING of any problems and that their can not be any problems. I was then told to email my concerns in.
The cameras are marketed around privacy and local storage, which are the primary differentiator from competitors like Ring. While it makes sense that certain features would require cloud servers, it doesn't make sense that the product fails almost entirely when those servers go down.
Entered code for the pan/tilt ENDOOR44 and got message:
The promotional code you entered is not valid.
Edit:
OK, tried ENDOOR22 on the regular cam and it worked, thanks .
I had the same problem, I ordered the regular cam. Went back and added the pan camera and now the coupon applied to that camera. It didn't work before, but I had added the regular to the cart and applied the ENDOOR22 so thinking that screwed up my account. Then after placing the order for the regular, the pan/tilt code worked for that one too now.
Does anyone know if you can easily share a stream from these cameras? I need 6 cameras to be running, but only want to share 4 of the streams on a webpage for members of a club... the inside ones will be private to the head of the board only, but would like to be able to share only the outside ones via a link on a webpage. Nest easily does this... just wondering if anyone can chime in on if these will do the same. Thank you!

You can share by device to different people. I can share the camera we use to watch the baby sleeping with grandma and mom but only share the playroom camera with mom.
Pan allows the camera to rotate horizontally on its base. Tilt allows it to move up or down.
The other option is a fixed camera option that you manually setup.

How is the video resolution? Wyze cams aren't very clear.
Can't speak for these but the 2k Eufy doorbell is very clear. My in-laws talk about how much more clear it is than the Ring doorbell they have. Hope that helps.

These are the options available when you click on the Cloud-type storage:
