eufy Security 4+

The news about doorbell thumbnail images being uploaded to eufy cloud was alarming… however people need to know that Eufy is on top of this and making sure customers are aware that 1. They have a choice about selecting thumbnails or not, and 2. Eufy is not trying to steal personal information . The thumbnails go to their cloud storage just long enough to send them to phone apps and then they are deleted. I researched all the major security cameras before I bought a eufy system 2 years ago. I chose eufy because I could store all the data locally. Cloud storage is optional. I even drowned my indoor blink camera in a bowl of water before discarding it (I hate that technology winds up in landfills but there you have it). I had trouble with one of my first cameras and eufy replaced it immediately. They even replaced the mounting hardware at no charge even though the issue was mine rather than theirs. Today I talked to customer service rep David R. And my total confidence in Eufy is restored. No hardware is ever going to be perfect in the age of cyber theft but I’m confident that
Eufy will be a leader. By the way, their batteries are Anker products and I have confidence in Anker as well. Power surge protectors, portable battery chargers for cellphones and tablets, and long lasting security camera batteries. Well done.

I love all my Eufy security cams, I currently have 4 on my house that I am able to monitor most all areas except for private rooms inside and out of my home and it’s great to be able to check into my dog at home and the backyard or front yard for packages or just to feel more secure knowing my home is safe. Having said that the only issue that I would love to see an option for is a very simple user interface correction or bare minimum toggle option to go in and select ALL recordings to delete them or do whatever other tasks one might do. It is a tedious and annoying task to go through each day individually, hit select all, hit delete then have to wait two seconds for the pop up at the top screen to clear so I can click back another day to eventually clear all data when I want to. I understand videos after so many months gets deleted but also having 99+ on all of my cameras is a bit of a pet peeve of mine and it feels nice to occasionally go into the app and just delete everything saved on the drives. Please Eufy talk to your app devs and see if this small update can be done because it’s the easiest functionality to add for them and would make tons of peoples small amount of OCD love Eufy that much more. You can have the best hardware in the world but if your user interface to work it has annoyances left and right then the overall product looses users. Overall Eufy gets 8/10 so far though and I’d recommend it to anyone!

This is all New to me unfortunately I’ve had to get security cameras on my home after 33 years. I had some misfortune and now neighbors are just being plain ugly leaving all kinds of insulting things at my house around my front door main thing sad for no reason. hence I have to have proof for the police that have come here each night for the past five nights in time after time have to have proof. what’s so funny is nothing has been stolen it’s just for instance a huge shopping cart of trash left in my front door outside my screen porch front I’ve had a stolen bicycle put on my property so the thief that took it come back and get it later I’ve had can Tainer‘s of gasoline put in the back of the pick up truck so the thief could come back and use it for a moped of his now this thief is a squatter. i’ve never been the kind of person that has to show out but I am very good at doing it because of the upbringing I had in the schools I went to junior high school especially. The one thing I do wish is it would move with like a car I wish it would move with the motion of the car. I haven’t even had them for one week yet but so far so good because a month ago I was actually using my phone to follow cars that I thought might look suspicious and I did very good at that. also I was I had already gotten into almost a contract with ADT my daughter is the one that said hey want to try this thank God I did thank you again.
