Backing up data from storage card to computer – The SD card is very tricky to remove - the button does not actually eject it enough to grasp. Once attached to Windows PC you have the options to delete or make a copy to PC but you will not be able to view anything on computer because the files are a .data format and are not recognized. Even VLC media player can't read them. There may be software… Read more

to convert them but the effort and cost is not worth it unless some footage is really important. You need to replace the card and use the app on your phone to view the footage before it it overwritten.

It started fine but went downhill from there – The camera went Offline during its first night of operation. It has been powered off, reset and tried to be added to the app but no luck. It was also not able to connect to Google Home. Show details

It's Cheap, And It Shows – This isn't a bad camera, not really. It's connection is reliable (the external Wi-Fi antenna really helps with connection), build quality is good, the image is good, the app is acceptable, very easy to set up. It doesn't have the ability to store clips in the cloud, but you can buy an SD card separately and watch recordings from the SD card. … Read more

Overall (for the money), it does an acceptable job. Nowhere near as good as the bigger brand and more expensive units available on the market, but good enough

High Definition WiFi Camera Under $100 – The Grid Connect - Orion High Definition WiFi Camera is fantastic Value and Quality. Easy to install and connect via the smart phone app. IP65 weather proof simply set up an account , plug it in to a power point pair via bluetooth scan the codes in front of the actual camera and you're done , dont worry all the instructions are in the manual… Read more

provided.

There's also 1 & 2 way audio for voice or listening , it has sound and movement activation detection 24/7 streaming 1080p night vision is very good crisp clear HD images both film and photo . The only down side is it does not come with a Micro SD card so grab a good one 16 or 32 Gb can be used for wrap around recordings , Note: when you fit the Micro SD card in the camera be careful installing it , be gentle, the SD card brand side should face up push it in gently using a match stick or tweezers don't force it ,...its a push in and push again to release .

The little button below the SD card slot is a "Camera RESET button" , NOT to be confused or used as an Eject Button.

Overall I'd give this 4.5 stars out of 5 as the camera is a small part of a potential total home system check out other components which work with the App. Bunnings sell the products.
