Review Text: Nice little camera but app asks intrusive info. To start off this is cool little camera. At first when it said wired I thought it meant hard wired but instead its a plug in. The first problem with that is if you decide to put this at the top of say.. your front door to use it as a security cam or something to protect you from porch pirates, the wire has to be long enough to come inside and all the way down to the closest wall socket. It has a USB ending too, but what does someone have laying around their front door that has a USB powered socket? Unless it's a newer updated socket with USB's added. The design is pretty neat, just a simple little cube with the base that unfolds from the bottom so that you can attach it to wherever you want it affixed to. I had this running for only a few minutes to set up with the app and it was already really warm. I thought that was kind of unusual especially for such a small device. My biggest pet peeve for this small little camera is how intrusive the apps questions are to set this up. Full name, date of birth, full address etc. I don't see anywhere in the app that it provides emergency services to your house if there's an issue so don't see why they'd need all of that information for one small security camera. What I decided to use it for was an indoor motion camera and was easier to find a plug to reach that way. I dunno if I'd recommend this for an outdoor camera because the wire is accessible to cut and once that's done the app ceases to record or receive info. It does however keep frames of the last recent image when you open up the app.
