Live Video and Recording

Keep watch on your home 24/7 with live video monitoring and motion-activated recording*. You’ll never miss a thing with high-definition video up to 1080p with sound, and a 140-degree field of view.

*Available on certain monitoring plans 

Two-Way Audio 

Talk to visitors, both wanted and unwanted, through the tap-to-talk audio feature while live streaming video. Tap on the microphone icon on the live camera player and speak through the phone. Your camera will play the audio via its speaker so you can hear what the person on the other end is saying.

Motion Detection

You can create activity zones so your camera knows where to look and what to ignore. And with Smart Person detection, your camera can tell the difference between people, vehicles, and animals.

Night Mode and Spotlight

When enabled, Night Mode uses Infrared light allowing you to see clear video at night and in low-light conditions. Additionally, an optional built-in spotlight will shine on people who trigger the camera's motion detection on your property. This light provides a clear color picture at all times.

Notifications

Stay in the know with Fast Protect™ (formerly Interactive Monitoring), push notifications, texts and email alerts*.

*Alerts are available on select monitoring plans and dependent on customizable notification settings.  

LED Status Light

Your camera will communicate with you via its multicolored status light during set up and immediately after a power cycle. This light can also disabled in the camera settings, so unwanted visitors are not aware of your camera's battery and connection status. View the chart below to understand the meaning of each light.
