Question 1

How is the app?

Accepted Answer

Those saying this is a great app just haven't used other apps yet.  This app does not even have a way to download or create a video from the SD card within the app.  You have to manually get the SD card out of the device (that means getting a ladder for the outdoor cams) and put it into your computer and making the video from there.  This app seems somewhat disjointed as it has "view activity" in one place and it's another place if you click thru the notification.    Some companies have good apps but poor camera and some have a poor app but great cameras.   If only we could find that one company that has a great app AND a great camera.    This one doesn't seem to be it either.  You have to decide what is more important to you - great app (needed features and more control) with ok cameras (like 1080p) or great cameras (2K+) with ok app (less features, less control)   For our needs - this is a great camera but just an ok app.    We'd like to find one that is great camera, great app - this is camera #4 and we have yet to find that magic combo.

Question 2

Can I get motion detection alerts on cell without cloud or sd storage?

Accepted Answer

Technically yes - as long as the camera is connected to a WiFi network, with Internet connectivity, and associated with a Kasa account, with notifications enabled in the Kasa app, you should still receive detection alerts when detection occurs. Please note that no recording will take place if you do not have a MicroSD card inserted, or a Kasa Care cloud storage plan.

Question 3

The new version uses sd cards. instructions up to 128gb, here says 64gb. has anyone tried a 256gb card? most "limits" r incorrect & can do more gbs...

Accepted Answer

I don't understand all of what your asking with the acronyms but I put a 256 micro SD card in my camera and it runs great. I bought 3 Hasa pan and tilt cameras, 2 of this and one one 1080p camera. They are all using a 256 micro sd card.

Question 4

Does this have MAC address displayed on product?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on the base of the unit. You can also find it in the Kasa app once the camera is set up.
