I had an incident happen in my home and this camera for the price was the best option. great quality, picks up movement quickly. the image quality is great as well and picks up all noises. very easy to mount too.

I found a way to view the Kasa camera on Windows (sort of). I downloaded an Android image (BlueStacks 5, free) that runs Virtually on Windows 11. The only think I had to do was go into my BIOS and turn on virtualization. What shocked me is that I could go to the Google Play Store and download many of my serious apps like Kasa and Yolink (water detection devices) and they both work well. Amazingly I have both those icons on my Windows Desktop and If I just click on one of those it automatically loads Bluestacks and runs it that way. Users mostly just get games from the Play Store but kind of shocked that it works the way on apps. My win 11 PC is a 6 core Ryzen, MSI Tomahawk MB with Nvidia 1080 GPU and 32 Gig of system ram. Update again. Everything changed when I put an SD card in. I can now see the triggered clips directly recorded on the SD card in the Kasa app without removing the card. You must enable 24 hr recording for this to work. While they still don't send you a snapshot of the triggered event there is a screen grab function that you can take while viewing a clip. So this camera is now very useful. And you don't have to subscribe to Kasa Care to use this. Sorry about the incorrect review but they didn't mention this in their documentation. Would still like to see this app working on a Windows PC but right now is just Apple IOS and Android supported. Update: While the picture quality is very good and can live stream well, unfortunately, this camera never sends me a picture of event that triggered my camera. When I get the notification on my phone whoever or whatever triggered the incident is long gone with no proof of the event. *** Update: This is wrong but you must put an SD card in*** Now, you can put an SD card in (not supplied) the camera but to view the videos recorded but you have to pull the SD card out and view it on another device. *** Update: this is also incorrect*** Sorry. This only works if you have 24 hour surveillance set in he app. Also, you can pay for Kasa Care, their online cloud service and that costs $3 / month. Why this camera can't just send you a snapshot of whatever triggered it, I don't know. This camera was so inexpensive with excellent video quality, so I'm keeping it, but this is a fatal flaw in the usefulness of this camera. This could easily be fixed with a software update. I have those Kasa remote on/off light units (times 3) so I thought I'd add a Kasa camera to the mix. I went for the higher resolution camera which they refer to as QHD. It was worth the extra $10. The Kasa app works but they don't have a PC version (Windows or Mac). So I only have the app on Android and Apple phones / tablets. I will get a micro SD card to record. Apparently, there's a 256 gig maximum storage limit. I also like the fact that you can turn off the light that shows the unit is on. Although if you have tracking switched on the movement of the lens (and the whirring noise that makes) is a dead giveaway.

I am impressed honestly. The app is easy to use, the only downside is you have to subscribe to record 24/7. The camera quality is honestly fantastic in the daytime and night. You can hear audio from the camera but the microphone isn’t super sensitive so anything less than talking level wouldn’t be heard. You can also talk through the camera which I thought was cool, similar to a ring door bell. It’s fun to take pictures through the app as well, especially if you have pets. I thought I would have to hang the camera to get good views but the 360 feature is super helpful. i actually have it at a low angle in my room but it can see every inch.

Recently, became nearly full time caregiver for my 77 year old mother. we tried a wrist based call bell but her capacity to learn, sadly has diminished. so, needed a discrete way to monitor her remotely. this camera is very discreet and matches the tv stand. she loves framed pictures so there is a pretty discreet opening that alllows nearly 360 degree view of the living room where she spends most of her time. I can move the camera remotely, and it even has a feature that will follow her as she moves. however, thus far i haven't used that feature very much. I think if the camera is moving alot, it may wear out the mechanism prematurely. camera seems well built, and make sure you get a Class 10 micro sd card. I bought amazon basics brand, and it works flawlessly, and if it starts to fail, they are cheap enough to replace. name brands go for over 40.00! yikes. i bought 128gb card. you can go as high as 256gb cards. but 128gb will get you probably over a week of footage. (your mileage may vary) depending on how active the camera is and how busy the area your monitoring is. you can turn off the front LED indicator, so camera is super discrete. the kasa app is super easy to use, and you can subscribe to kasa care for 30 days of recording history if you chose to. it's pretty reasonably priced as well, i personally don't use it, but like having that option. camera ONLY WORKS on 2.5ghz network so make sure your setup allows you to assign devices to 2.4ghz band, word of caution, if your using a ISP supplied router, this won't work. you will need to go with 3rd party router (i use tp link) and it works flawlessly. you can set the camera to listen for sound/motion and even a baby crying. there are settings that can be changed for sensitivty, and you can use patrol mode. camera will move/tilt up and down, at preset intervals. you can talk through the camera if needed, i don't use this feature because i'm doing discreet monitoring. I have a very old kasa spot camera (probably 13 years old now) and it still works, but having some intermittent issues. I prefer all my cameras to be of the same brand, so i don't have to cycle through 2 or 3 different apps on my phone. app works well. and you can even download it on your MacBook if using ios. not sure about windows though, ive read it doesn't work with windows based systems. This is a very good deal and a good price point, and has served it's purpose well, and i have only used this particular model for a few days. if you need discreet monitoring or surveillance this is a cost effective way to do it. i suggest getting the black one opposed to white. the color white sticks out like a sore thumb, but the black color blends in and assures discretion. way to go kasa! great camera at a great price.

Very happy with my Kasa Indoor Pan/Tilt camera. I use it for monitoring my cat while on vacation and confirming pet sitters drop in. I recently started fostering a young kitten, and got a second one to keep an eye on her when I'm in office during the work day - it's nice to have peace of mind. The camera functions great, and is very affordable. When you add an SD card, you are able to record/review triggered events without needing a subscription. The connection can be a little slow to load sometimes, but provides great quality video and the night vision impressed me with how clear it was (I don't really utilize the audio). Lots of great options including tracking patrol mode, pre-setting positions, etc. Very versatile to adjust settings and sensitivity. Connects to Alexa and other Smart Home devices if you choose. The Kasa app is fairly intuitive (though keep digging for some fo the finer settings and controls!). Very easy and fast to set up.

Easy to set up and they work very good I would suggest buying them another one 🐱

I am quite happy with this brand

Not bad but not as we expected

Muy fácil de instalar, se ve muy nítida la imagen, además se pueden escuchar las voces o ruidos que haya en el lugar y también se puede hablar por medio de la cámara; excelente compra! La recomiendo mucho!

Yes, these do come with a US style wall charger but work with any USB charger It means I can keep my plan of Kasa in one house and Tapo in the other Makes it easier to identify even though the Tapo app can separate them
