Does not come with memory so you will need to purchase a memory card before it will work
Also need to purchase cloud storage

Response from Staples :
Hi Evan, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’d like to clarify a couple of points regarding storage for this model. This particular model does not include a memory card in the kit. You will need to purchase a MicroSD card separately for the system to record locally. We do offer other models that come with a memory card included, which may be worth considering if you prefer a ready-to-use option. Regarding cloud storage, this is an optional feature. Subscribing to Secure+ Plan allows you to access additional benefits, such as remote backups and extended recording history. However, even without a subscription, your recordings will still save directly to the MicroSD card you install. We hope this helps clarify how storage works with your system. If you have any questions about choosing the right MicroSD card or setting up cloud storage, please feel free to contact us at [email protected]. We’re happy to assist. Your feedback is truly appreciated. Mary - Swann Team

Hello Kate, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that the video quality has been good, but we’re very sorry that the two-way talk and motion alerts haven’t been working as expected. That’s certainly not the experience we want you to have, and we understand how disappointing it must feel when key features don’t perform properly. The issue with low audio volume and delayed notifications can often be related to settings or connection factors, and we’d really like the chance to help you get everything working the way it should. If you could reach out to us at [email protected] with your device details, our team can walk you through some steps to improve the two-way audio and ensure that alerts trigger at the right time. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we’re here to support you until everything is resolved. Mary – Swann Team

Better options elsewhere
Door bell battery dies way too quick. Using multiple Micro SD cards no change in the feature of playback. Waist of money plan to find another brand doorbell.

Response from Staples :
Hi Sac87, We're sorry to hear about your battery issues. That’s not the experience we want for you. Battery life is dependent on the number of recordings and the amount of time a user spends on live streaming. We suggest lowering the sensitivity level, adjust your detection zone to reduce unnecessary recordings and position the doorbell strategically to reduce the recording time. We're unsure what you mean by "changing the SD card to change the feature playback" but if you decide to change/upgrade the SD card, it needs to be formatted using the app first. You can then access the recordings via the Device Settings/Storage. We’d love to help troubleshoot this further, please reach out to us at [email protected] with a few details about your setup, and our support team will assist you directly. We're here to help get things back on track!

Disappointing and slow
Takes too long to access image via the app. Can be very patchy and takes too long. The recording of image is too short too. Just really disappointing. Wifi signal at 80%, wifi speed at 100mb/s so network not the issue. Restarted, factory reset, all of the troubleshooting and no difference

Response from Staples :
Thanks for the feedback, Greg. We've passed your feedback to our development team to help with their ongoing work in the platform performance improvements. The duration of the live view function can vary depending on the app settings, network latency and interference. The detection sensitivity can be increased via the app settings, although, recordings will always continue if motion is being detected. For example, if the recording duration is set to 10s, it will record for only 10s if a person just walks pass. However, if the person remains within the detection zone, it will continue to record until the person leaves. If it stops recording, then there is actually nothing to record and by limiting unnecessary recordings, helps increase the battery life. We also recommend to strategically place your doorbell so that it can immediately detect a visitor as they make their way to the door.

One word "Rubbish"
Unfortunately, I bought the Swann Evo wireless doorbell from Bunnings. I wish I had chosen a different brand. The Microphone (push to talk) is rubbish. All you can hear is a crackling sound. I tried calling Swann Support but had no luck getting through as they are extremely busy (for obvious reasons).

It's not a terrible purchase to get. Does the job
Comes with everything needed for different types of installation, so it's versatile on how you can use it. The camera quality and latency aren't the best, but they work for what their job is. As a doorbell camera, it isn't terrible to get for monitoring your house or door.

Good Quality, WiFi Connection needs improvement
I bought this bell last month. I would say it is of a good quality. Easy installation.However, it takes couple of trials and atleast 40-60 second to connect it to the wifi every time you login which make it difficult to answer if you are not home.
