Great imaging
The Galayou camera has been amazing! Setup was quick and easy, and the picture quality is very clear, both during the day and at night. The app is simple to use, and I love being able to check in from anywhere. Motion detection works great and gives me peace of mind. Overall, a reliable and affordable camera that I highly recommend.

Great nanny cam used in window as an outdoor camera
I wanted a nanny cam for my windows to work as an outside camera without the cost of an outdoor camera. These are perfect for that.- the video quality is clear. Never looks old and I can see details very closely.- the app was easy to set up and has a variety of functions. You can speak both ways. Audio is very clear. You can hear people talking quietly from the other room.- you can set up notifications to your preference. I have my notifications set that it says “Motion detected Front camera” every time a person or car goes by which is just what I wanted.- it saves the motion alerts into ~30 second clips in the app which are easy to download into the phone camera.- the camera has only a little blue light on the front to show it’s working. I actually like this because people can look into my window and know there’s a cameraMy only cons- you can’t see more than the 30 second clips or even look back on history (unless it’s a motion sensored notification) unless you pay. (I am not wanting to pay a monthly subscription, but it is an option)- sometimes there will be someone in the yard and I know it and I get the notification that there was a “possible person detected”, however the camera clip doesn’t show it. It’s a little off.All in all, great nanny cam for outdoor camera use.

Great quality at a great price! Customer service is wonderful!
This is a GEM of a product at a VERY good price! It works well & there are no monthly fees UNLESS you decide to have recordings you can look back on if you are having anyone come into your home while you are not present. It has very good picture quality on my phone & I can watch my disabled mom from anywhere. IF I need to run to wal-mart or any errands, I just open the app & check on her! What a convenience & lifesaver of my mental health! lol I don't have to stress every 10 min & rush out of places wondering if she's ok! The customer service responds within 24 hours but it's always been a very quick reply! They are very helpful & courteous! I would def buy from them again if I'm in need. I've had this product for a year now & I think I paid $15. It's still working like a charm! You won't regret buying from them! Best wishes, & God bless...

Good camera, easy setup
Nice camera overall. Setting up the camera and all the information on the app was super simple and easy to understand. I don't really have any need to save recordings so I didn't get any cloud storage or an SD card. However I like knowing that the option is there if I do need it. Very versatile working with Alexa and Google Home. And it can be mounted or it has a stand which is what I use. The size is perfect, nice and small. I'm super impressed at how far out the camera picks up movement. Sound and Picture are clear. I have noticed a delay though. If someone goes past the camera it takes about 30 seconds for it to pick them up and send me an alert. So if someone goes by it too fast it doesn't catch them. Other than that it completely suits my needs and the price was great!

Overall a nice camera but with one major defect.
Overall I have to give the camera a fairly high mark. It works and has clear imagery. Setup was simple and fast and the ability to set the motion activation area is a plus so you can still see other areas without them triggering the camera falsely.But despite the nice features it has a MAJOR defect that I just found out about today. Apparently when on my way to work we had a temporary power outage. It lasted only 5 minutes, but the cameras were down all day because of this. It seems that The cameras will only try to connect to wifi a short time then never try again. From ~8:12 am to 4:30PM my cameras were down. Once home I connected to my wifi via my phone no problems. So I power cycled the cameras and they quickly connected perfectly. This is a major problem but it gets even worse. While sitting disconnected the cameras will not record events. So I have no idea what happened all day at home. Not good for security cameras with local storage and no excuse either.This is a major oversight by GALAYOU and one I hope they plan on addressing with a firmware update, if they can even be updated.--------<EDIT>-------------Had a somewhat lengthy conversation with customer service and let's just say it was not very helpful. They wanted to blame MY network for the problem and not their product. A device should never stop asking for an IP address on a network till it gets one. My server takes around 7 minutes to boot, so for that 7 minutes DHCP services are down. It's simply inexcusable that a device would only sent requests for so long then just stop. At a bare minimum it should reboot and then try again.Here is part of the conversation I had with them.------------------------From: MeDate: 2023-05-23 10:30To: MargieSubject: Re: Urgent, need your reply-Message about your camera-CeliaThe issue I have is really in two parts. First, the device seems to only try to obtain an IP address for a short time after booting up. My network is run by a slower 12th gen(~2013) Dell Poweredge so it can take up to 7 minutes for the DHCP server to be up and running after a power outage. So the cameras appear to stop trying to get an IP address before that.Secondly, Absent a connection the cameras don't record events. If they have powered up and have local storage I would expect them to still capture events. Then when they get an ip address return to normal operation. I don't know if it's just the IP address they are waiting for or an active internet connection. Either way they likely have all the settings they need saved locally so there really is no reason to wait on recording.Where I live brief power outages are common and can be expected every 7-14 days.-------------------------------------------------------------On Tue, May 23, 2023 at 3:26 AM [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote:Hi, thank you for your reply.For the first issue, this problem is more about the DHCP setting in the router. Under normal circumstances, the camera will automatically restore the network connection and get back online within a few minutes after disconnecting. If your camera can't get an IP address in time after disconnection, you can try to modify the DHCP setting in your router to see if modifying the DHCP setting works for you.For part 2, the camera is a wireless WiFi verison, connected wirelessly to the router, and then install the application on your phone and watch the stored video recorder files so that you may not have the video files while you are disconnected.This is also true for other brands of security cameras, such as Wyze, Reolink, Yi's cameras, and not only Galayou's cameras have this problem.I hope you can understanding, as a developing company. If there is a mature enough technology that can make the WiFi camera save videos to SD card even when the network is disconnected, our company will also update the technology in time, because the customer's demand is the driving force of our production.Based on what you said, I think a smart battery wireless camera would be more suitable for your needs. Battery cameras can work for months on a single charge.Overall, the price of this camera is very low, and his functions can meet the daily use.What's more, could you pls kindly send me your order for checking?service@galayou-store.com--------------------------------------------From: MeDate: 2023-05-23 22:16To: [email protected]: Re: Re: Urgent, need your reply-Message about your camera-CeliaIt's not a setting problem on the server. Other devices can connect fine even with the cameras just sitting there. The cameras themselves can connect just fine too once the server is fully up and they are powered up AFTER the server is running. It's a problem with the cameras no longer asking for an IP address after some amount of time.-------------------------------------The rest of the conversation was simply them asking me for the SN of the devices to check issues. Which the only real issue is the device not connecting to the network after failing to get a DHCP response after some time. Which should be a simple firmware fix.-----------------<6/1 edit>-----------------They now say they will work on the issue and will eventually patch the issue. I have bumped by rating accordingly. If they fix it, I will update my review. Which likely will result in a 5 out of 5 stars.

Works great and easy to set up
I bought this as a cheap option to take on a trip as a camera to watch the kiddos from the other room. Worked like a charm. Super easy set up & clear image. Easy to see with or without light. You cannot turn the camera from your phone, but that wasn't necessary for me. The angle was wide enough to capture the whole room. I recommend.
