NO monitoring via PC/MAC as described. NO wired ethernet as described. NO record to PC, only Micro SD. Anyone takes the camera, you get no footage, there are ZERO options to record remotely. Why are computers mentioned with this device at all since it does not have any interface? NO email notifications as described. It sends push notifications through the app. That is not the same thing. Drains your smartphone battery very quick so real time monitoring is not realistic. Odd that all these non existant features make it on to the description list. The app is not available on all android versions so the entire use of this camera is dependent on if you can get the app in the future, or support for your Android version. The audio from the app back to the camera is very poor quality. It does not have a motion sensor its some kind of light sensor so changes in light set it off. I have it in the garage and get all kind of alerts from sunlight and when the garage door light times out. Just ridiculous. I would not have bought this knowing that half the features don't exist, and have no mention in the instruction manual. Call it what is says on the front of the manual. A tablet and smart phone camera.

ThorthewickedIt uploads to DropBox yes, some poor quality images far too far apart to be considered security. I have found this device to be even more worthless than I could have imagined. Its a baby monitor. It goes off from any lighting changes so to actually setup push notifications to your phone gives you untold false alarm alerts that lead to no movement. When you look back at the pictures it shows light changes or ambient light changes. The sun coming up sets it off not in direct view. It does not record images fast enough or for long enough to be for any real security. You might catch an image of someone, might not. The pictures when its in night vision are useless to identify someone you would only see what happened, vaguely. I have unmounted the sd card only to find nothing will read it. No computer, camera, phone, nothing I own will recognize the card on its own so I cant even retrieve the worthless images even if I wanted to. Dropbox is the only way I can see anything this records. The camera was misrepresented about what its capable of and I am pissed off my money was wasted on this junk. It implies so many things that are just not there. I wanted to use a PC to record the supposed "monitoring via PC" claim among the other features that made it on the list. I wanted video recording, not 5 packs of images that are bordering on worthless. I cannot see the live camera image on anything but Android L Phone and Tablet. Kitkat no go. PC was never supported.
