    Thanks for the Vid. BTW: what camera area you using to film this? It’s perfect quality and lighting is spot on.

    Does it have a dedicated control button in the Home area in the control center? Mine doesn’t show anything. Thoughts sir?

    Do you need to be operating HomeKit, I only use a mesh system wifi will it still operate?

    I'm confused. I thought that you can use 2k with homekit but not homekit secure video? They've been added to homekit but isn't allowing 2k.

    I have two Eufy cameras and a doorbell and for some reason I seem to have issues connecting it to my HomeKit. I finally got it connected to my Apple HomeKit but now I can't see the cameras and my cameras are also not connecting to my home base 2. Anybody got any pointers?

    Hej Josh, what are you thoughts on the Eufycam pro after 2 months of use?

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  3 года назад +1

      We are pretty happy with it, but I would say grab the Eufycam 2 or the 2 Pro depending on your budget.

    Hi, how long does the power last if HomeKit secure video is set aggressively ? Like detect any motion + light

  • @whazzzup7916
    @whazzzup7916 3 года назад

    I have bought the EufyCam 2c Pro, and what bothering me is that you can't make a schematic in the Eufy app to create one that the camera is able to record at night and use geofencing at day time. is there a workaround for that option in HomeKit? (first time user for HomeKit)

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  3 года назад +1

      Are you talking about the 'activity zones'? The stuff you set for getting motion alerts? As far as I know, they aren't settable based on time of day in either the Eufy nor the Apple Home app.

    @darcy32171 2 года назад

    Couple questions: Where does a guy purchase replacement batteries for the cameras. Can a guy have the cameras stay in dormant mode and only come on with movement? If so, how long will it record before shutting off (Say it picks up a thief and then the thief moves off screen).

    • @eje59
      @eje59 Год назад

      Den är i viloläge men känner av om någon kommer i närheten sedan spelar den in en liten tid samt larmar med siren om du vill det? Tror inte du kan byta batteri men det räcker säkert länge.😊

    So can these cameras be placed outdoors in the elements, like I want one on my entry gate.
    The ring I have at my entry gate is shit

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  3 года назад

      Yes, these are 100% made for going outside in the weather.

    Will it work with a WiFi extender if camera is out of range?

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  2 года назад

      I wouldn't know how to setup the extender to work with it because I don't see any SSID or anything from the home base. Maybe check their docs?

    • @absolutely1337
      @absolutely1337 2 года назад

      movethe base closer. the base can work over wifi not just ethernet

    Only reason to go for pro is if apl updates homekit with higher res

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  2 года назад

      The Eufy app still shows 2k... So not a total waste imo.

  • @Videpedia
    @Videpedia 3 года назад

    I heard that all Eufy devices can only work if you have 2 separate bands, 2.4g and 5g, at home. IF you have a mesh network that combines 2.4g and 5g into one SSID then their devices will not work. True ? Anyone ?

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  3 года назад

      These particular cameras work directly with the HomeBase included in the kit, so you don't need to set or utilize any SSID stuff.

    Can you use the “Hey Siri” feature to see a certain camera?

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  2 года назад

      Yes, on a device with a screen just say 'Show me the X' where X is the camera name. For instance the camera is this video is called Garage, so I just say 'Show me the Garage' and it works great!

  • @birminghambreaker

    I’m very disappointed after buying this because 1/ you cannot continuously steaming the video and 2/ it does not record 24/7 but only if there are motions
    Money wasted … very disappointed !

  • @daltonfury911
    @daltonfury911 3 года назад +1

    Apple HomeKit maxes out at 1080p so you won’t see 2k video on the HomeKit.

    • @OurAppleHome
      @OurAppleHome  3 года назад

      Yeah, bummer. I'm hoping maybe in iOS 16, we get 2k support?

  • @djr2076

    Probably would be a better video if you ran through it first so you knew what you were doing prior to recording. You lost me in your struggles and muttering.
