5.0 out of 5 stars Works well - love the motion & temperature feature

Purchased 3 Canary Security cameras for the cottage. Easy set-up instructions from app on phone. Cameras are located in the garage, main floor and 2nd floor. My husband and I receive notifications with any motion detected & temp/humidity/air quality out of set normal range. We can view 'live' anytime on our phones. The first few days after leaving the cottage for the winter, we received motion detection alerts. We viewed on our phone the short video showing a flying insect (? moth). Highly sensitive sensor for motion. If for some reason the temperature drops due to a heating malfunction - we will be alerted, and can then contact a neighbour to check our cottage. Our insurance has been notified so this should reflect our insurance rates. Very happy with product. Of note - we did not choose to do the monthly Canary plan.

Estoy muy satisfecha con esta cámara. La claridad de vídeo y sonido es de la mejor calidad. Además, salgo de mi casa tranquila porque mide la temperatura, calidad de aire, etc. Avisa cuando un usuario se aleja o aproxima, tiene modo de noche, se conecta a tu red wifi y el alcance de pantalla es súper amplio. Muy recomendada.

5.0 out of 5 stars Affordable, reliable, effective, and comforting ...love the Canary!
Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2015

The front of my loft building had to be completely removed and rebuilt, leaving only a temporary wall – a single thickness of sheetrock – between my home and the street. On the first evening after demolition began, thieves climbed the scaffolding to the second level, and stole tools on the other side of this thin sheetrock partition separating my home from the outside. Coupling this temporary vulnerability of my home with the fact that I travel frequently, I decided I needed a device to monitor for intrusion. My research led me to purchase a Canary. Three months in, I have been very happy with the purchase.

Although I no longer recall clearly, I don't believe I was even aware before beginning my search that motion-detecting video cameras existed. Certainly not affordable ones. Therefore, it went way beyond my simple "wish list" – a camera I could occasionally check remotely – to learn that with the Canary I could not merely a motion-detecting camera, but a reasonably priced one that promised:

Recording when motion is detected
Immediate preservation of recordings in cloud storage
Auto-arming and –disarming depending on the user's proximity to home
High-definition (and "zoomable")
Infrared or night-vision capability
Machine learning for fewer alerts when "known" movement occurs
Alerts delivered to an app on the owner's smartphone
An alarm that may be triggered remotely if something or someone unwelcome is detected

Next question, of course, is whether Canary delivered on these promises.

Even before the most recent update to the Canary app, I was very pleased with the device's performance. Do I receive occasional "false positives", alerts when my pet walks by, even though I continue telling the app not to alert me to this pet movement? Yes, but very rarely. It's down to about once or twice a week now. Do the alerts bother me? Not in the least. In fact, it's just the opposite of an annoyance. It is comforting to receive a reminder that the device is detecting movement and alerting me. Were there no alerts to my pet's movement, I might worry more about whether the device was functioning properly. Clearly other users are annoyed by these alerts -- and I believe they will be reduced substantially by Canary's recent updates -- but my experience is that they are rare and reassuring.
'
Has Canary ever failed to detect and alert me to movement? Not that I know of. Before I first activated the auto-arm and -disarm ("geofencing") feature, I occasionally entered my home while Canary was still armed. Never once did it fail to alert me.

Several reviewers have reported that their Canary goes offline, inexplicably and frequently. This, too, is another problem that I have not encountered a single time in three months.

Is there anything iffy or dissatisfactory to me? The geofencing feature -- whereby the Canary auto-arms when the owner's smartphone travels beyond a certain perimeter around the home and disarms when the owner returns home – has been less than perfect. But this points out another great reason to be a Canary customer. When I reported the problem to Zach at Canary, he immediately showed me how to address it and to improve the auto-arming and –disarming feature of Canary. The GPS coordinates of my home merely needed to be recalibrated on the Canary app, which was a simple, one-click procedure. Before Zach's assistance, auto-arming worked about 30% of the time. Now, it works about 90% to 95% of the time. Points: (a) I can always check the app after leaving home to ensure the Canary is armed, and would probably do so regardless, as it is comforting to receive visual confirmation that everything is set and running. So auto-arming may be a convenience, but it is definitely not a deal-breaker. More importantly, (b) Canary's customer service has been prompt, courteous, and effective, as I believe is reflected in many of the other reviews here.

I do have a "wish list" of features I would like to see implemented.

1. I believe very strongly that users must – not should, but MUST – be able to customize the alerts, and to make them override their phone's "Do Not Disturb" feature. Currently, the only tone is not loud and is not distinct. It is the same alert I receive for trivial occurrences from multiple different apps. I also believe that the app MUST ALSO have the option of alerts that continue until silenced by the user. The entire system fails if I am away and an alert occurs at 2:00am – or at any time -- but I do not catch it because it is not loud, distinctive, or persistent. Canary Team, please consider permitting users to select their own alert tones AND to have the option of alerts that require manual silencing.

2. It would be very convenient – not a deal breaker – if the icon for the Canary app would change to reflect what monitoring mode it is in. Can the icon for the Canary app be upgraded so that – for instance – it has a red indicator when the device is armed, a green indicator when the device is in privacy mode, and no indicator when it is simply disarmed? That would be a super-convenient feature for those who feel compelled to check, from time to time, whether the device is armed ...sort of quick visual reassurance of the mode and status, without the need to open the app.

Bottom line: I love the Canary and the app, have found both to be very reliable and comforting during a period when my home has been particularly vulnerable, and I recommend Canary without reservation to anyone who would enjoy the peace-of-mind and top-quality monitoring my home receives with this affordable device.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible bait-and-switch tactics. Once free features are now behind a pay wall

----------------Update, October 2017------------------------

Downgrading this to one star. Would give it zero if I could. An update just took away key features of the device and put them behind a paywall. Nightmode, the ability to schedule, recording any video at all (it's now 10 sec "previews"), and more...these are all suddenly premium features that require a monthly subscription, but were not when I purchased this device. Even if they reverse course, I will never buy another Canary product. This device is now basically worthless, and I'm furious that features which convinced me to buy this thing are now unavailable. I already have too many subscriptions/monthly fees in my life, I do not want to add another. Bait and switch in its purest form.

----------------Original Review, 2016-------------------------
I've had my Canary system for about a week now. Overall, I like it...but there are some quirks I do not like that were almost deal-breakers. I think I'll keep it, because the alternatives are worse. But it was a near thing that I might have decided to wait for an unknown future mystery device to appear in the wifi camera market. It's the best option I've found, though. No one really appears to offer the "perfect device" yet, in this realm of easy-setup all-in-one wifi camera systems.

First, the good:
- Setup is very easy
- The Android app is slick, and simple to use. Most tech site reviews speak negatively of Canary's app, but they must have improved it significantly, because it's quite good right now.
- Motion alerts are effective and work great.
- Geofencing (arming when I'm away) is a great option. After adding my wife, this thing even arms now only when we are both away
- Images/videos are very clear
- The Timeline view in the app is very cool. You can see the sequence of arming/disarming, by which user, and all motion alert videos, sorted by time.
- That there is some sort of free cloud storage...although the amount given is a negative. See below.
- The Homehealth graphs are sort of cool. It shows you graphs and gives alerts for temperature (in case of fire), humidity (flood I guess), and air quality. A negative though is that the air quality value is bizarrely inaccurate, and I'm not even sure what it's measuring.

And now, the negatives:
- The amount of free cloud storage seems low compared to some competition. It's better than Nestcam/Dropcam, who give nothing free, but 12 hours isn't as good as I'd hoped. A few competitors offer much more...one (I think it's Arlo) gives seven days of cloud storage for free).
- I wish there were more notification options. It only notifies via the app, but I would really like the option for email and sms/text message notifications too. Other apps (Samsung at least) do this.
- I also wish it allowed more than four cameras at a location, and had some other hardware options (like an outdoor cam).
- There are weird quirks to getting your hands on videos outside of the app. This is the aspect that could have been a deal-breaker for me, if I hadn't have found a work around. With the free plan, you can only save motion alert videos to your phone 3 times...period. No resets, ever! I confirmed this with Canary's support, and was very disappointed to discover it. But, with the free plan, you can also "share" videos (email, facebook, twitter, etc) to yourself an unlimited number of times. I tried sharing, and it worked perfectly. So, this workaround exists. But it's strange that you would even have to do it - saving videos to external storage should be free any time, especially without local storage on the device. Honestly, this might be my biggest gripe with Canary right now. It makes me concerned about staying with them...that they might make "sharing" videos a premium option too.

I bought the Canary to keep an eye on my condo while I am away. I was also interested in the fact that it has sensors for temperature, humidity and indoor air quality.

First off, I have to say I love the design. It is elegant and understated. It comes in a glossy white or black. You plug it into an outlet, and either into ethernet or connect to your 2.4 GHz wifi network during setup. Setup was pretty painless and my Canary was online in just a few minutes. I did some testing when I first installed it, and I was very happy with the full HD image quality and the width of the image frame. Later, when I had a chance, I tried the Canary's night vision capabilities, and I must say, although the image sharpness suffers a bit (common with night vision images), it was still incredibly good. The Canary comes with the ability to record clips and store the most recent 12 hours of activity in the cloud for you, for free. However, you can also opt for some paid plans that allow you to store many more days and many more video clips online. I myself chose the 2 day plan, which I seem to remember also lets you store up to 25 clips in their servers. These clips can also be downloaded from the cloud into your device, in case you need to do so. Or they can be deleted if that is your wish.
One thing I really like about the device is that when you are home, you can set it to either still see movement and may record clips, but stay silent and not send you any notifications (kind of like a Mute button), which I guess could be helpful in some situations, or to go into Private mode, where the camera turns off and will not see or record anything that happens at home while you are there. Once you leave your house, a combination of geofencing by GPS bluetooth and wifi will let Canary know you have left the house, and will automatically arm itself. You can add different users to the app, and as long as they too have the Canary app installed in their phones or tablets, the Canary will know when they come and go and arm or disarm itself accordingly.

The app is simple and a bit sparse-looking at first, but it has all the information you need:
-Settings, self explanatory. You can add users, add new Canary devices, get help, etc.
-a Timeline, where you get information as to when the camera was armed, disarmed, when it detected you leaving and when it sensed you arrived back home. Here you can also watch videos if any recordings were triggered by movement during your absence, and you can download them, delete them, even add tags to the video and share it!. You can also make the Canary's siren sound remotely and even contact the local authorities.
-The Home Health area, that gives you information on indoor temperature, humidity and air quality. This is the part of the app I keep coming back to most often believe it or not. When I first bought my Canary and got it running, it would indicate, day after day, that my home's indoor air quality was awful. Wanting to change this, I looked online for good, hardy, easy to care for apartment plants to improve this. I bought 3 large ones, and in less than 24 hours, the air quality indicator went from Orange (Abnormal), to Green (normal). You can even see the peaks and valleys in the graph that correspond to the plants' own breathing cycle. How cool is that???

In the few months I have owned the Canary, there have been some missteps as well. The app tended to be buggy in the first few versions, but it keeps on improving with every new version, and currently I am very happy with it. Also, the change from night vision to daytime mode tends to sometimes trigger a 'motion detected' alarm. Fortunately, the new version of the Canary app now offers a slider that you can use to tone down the sensitivity of the device, so that it will not react to every little sounds or change in light conditions as an alarm. The slider allows for fine tuning of the level of sensitivity that will trigger Canary's response, but the awesome thing is that even if you lower its sensitivity threshold, this only means you will get less alerts from Canary, BUT (and this is important), it will still record any 'activity' it detects while you are away from home, whether an alert is sent to you, or not. I personally keep my sensitivity settings on the high side. I'd rather get some false alarms than not be notified if the real thing happens and I do get intruders in my house.

All in all, I think it is an incredible device. I would love it if it was smart enough to learn from certain false queues to ignore them in the future, like a moving ceiling fan, for instance, but this is a minor issue. The Canary does what it is designed to do, and does it well. And the HomeHealth app is incredibly useful, especially for people like me with environmental allergies and asthma. I am very satisfied with my Canary, and I would definitely recommend it to others. And I have.
