Worst cam ever! There is a 8-10 second delay in the camera feed. Meaning, once the cam notices movement it takes 8-10 seconds before it alerts you and when it's on live feed there is still an 8-10 second delay. So if you were to stand in front of cam and move your arms. It takes a full 8-10 seconds for the picture on your phone or tablet to move. We did a real life test to see what it would relate to. I was able to walk up our driveway, open the door of my truck and grab my radar detector, wallet, hoodie and get about 30ft down the street BEFORE the camera alerted movement. Then to make matters worse. It started recording after I was already in my truck making it impossible to see anything except my backside making it completely useless. We have returned this p.o.s. to Best Buy and purchased a cam for $109 saving us $90. New cam is up in same location as the Canary Flex was and is awesome. It alerts within getting a few feet in our driveway and has virtually no delay on live feed as well. I've timed it and it's less then a second delay. Picture quality is as good or better then the Canary which was pretty good and is wireless like the Canary. Do your self a favor and don't purchase this thing unless you don't care about delay time on alerts or delay in noticing movement.
