This is also where you can add shared accounts, change your notification settings, and even protect your recordings with a password to prevent other people from accessing your security footage without your permission. You can change the sensitivity of the detection and the areas where movement will trigger the camera to record. Strange errors aside, various customization options are hiding in the app settings. (Edit: apparently this can be disabled from the “smart night vision” setting, by turning white light linkage to off) For some reason, when you activate it through the app, it simply flashes on and off, and I have no idea why. There are also the spotlight and siren features that we’ve talked about before, but there is a slight issue with the spotlight.

As well as being able to manually record or take pictures, you can turn camera sound on or off, save clips when the camera detects a human at your door, or activate the talk-back feature that utilizes your smartphone microphone.

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that there is a desktop version of this software available.Ĭonnecting it to the app is as simple as using the QR code, and once installed, you have a wealth of options available to you. We’ve already covered the simple installation process, but the app and its ease of use really sell it to non-tech-savvy consumers.

Is the camera easy to install and use, and does the included app come with enough features without feeling overwhelming? Luckily, both the app and the camera itself are well-designed. Other than the camera quality, the most critical factor here is usability. I’ve used many cameras during my time as a student and my job as a content creator, and I’ve never seen a commercial-grade device with this sort of capability. Even when the shot is incredibly dark to the naked eye, the camera not only picks up almost every detail but does so in color. Not only does this camera have a night vision mode, but it’s probably one of the best I’ve seen in a camera. While the Spotlight feature is useful, it would be no good if the camera didn’t work without it. You can also be pretty sure that you won’t miss anything even at night. No matter what system you use though you should find the 'human detection' notifications pretty accurate, though you can alter the sensitivity if you find it's being set off by passing animals or bugs crawling on the camera lens. You'll still need the power cable too as the Defender Guard Pro doesn't support Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). If you have spotty Wi-Fi that won't support that level of detail when you're streaming, there's also the option for a wired Ethernet connection, but bear in mind that you’ll need a compatible Ethernet port nearby, or one hell of a long cable. In many ways, that’s a bit of a godsend, as this means you can allow access for your children without giving them the ability to prank passersby with the talk-back feature or siren.

Even better, the app includes sharing features, so you can have everyone in your household able to use the cameras, either as admin users with full access or as guest users who can only view the camera rather than actually control it. This means that if you lose your phone, or it becomes broken, you won’t have to set the cameras up again. You can log into your account from anywhere and access your camera. You will also need to create an account with the Defender Guard app, but this is pretty useful.

Once it’s plugged in, you have to download the app and scan the QR code on the camera to get started. Once attached, it is held very steadily in place, but you have to make sure that you point the camera in the right direction for your needs since there’s a notch in the base to point it higher if needed. After that, you simply use the included guide sticker to drill 3 small holes into your wall or porch roof, then screw the camera into place. The only plug you really need to worry about is the power cable, which can be plugged into any power outlet in your home. Things couldn't be easier when it comes to setting up the camera.
