I have a wired doorbell, two outdoor EufyCam 2 cameras, and a few indoor eufy cams. I've had the majority for 2+ years.
When I bought them, they all worked perfectly. However, they get worse with each update.
- They constantly miss movement, only detecting squirrels or cats, but missing people. Sometimes it thinks a leaf is a person now. Or the wheel of a neighbors car.
- The settings for how long to take a video upon detecting motion change nothing.
- Sensitivity adjustments change nothing
- The app requires you to constantly dismiss ads for their other products before viewing your camera feed. This is an issue if someone is at the door and you want to respond to them but the app loads an ad instead, which interrupts going straight to the doorbell view. Dismissing the ad requires you to then click the doorbell cam in the app, which then needs to load. All this takes over 30 seconds, at which point the person may be gone. Also, for whatever reason there is a bug that if you click a notification it stops recording.... so you'll miss the person at the door AND you won't get a recording of it.
- Promised HomeKit support (it was on the box when I purchased), yet still no HomeKit support for my doorbell
For the money, If you are technically inclined, I'd build your own system, or go with another brand. Eufy used to be an easy choice because the data was all local, but accessing it now requires passing through their servers. Even if it is secure now, they've proven that they can't be trusted and their software gets worse over time while promoting their other new products in a way that reduced functionality.
