VSTARCAM Pet Camera with Laser, 3MP 2.4GHz WiFi Interactive Dog & Cat Laser Toy with Night Vision, Motion Detection Alerts, APP Remote Control Indoor Security Camera for Pet Monitoring

This is purrfect. The set up is super easy and fast. The canners has great quality and you can talk to your furbabies. The night vision works great and is very clear. The laser is the main reason I purchased this product so that I could check in on my fur babies while I am out of town and I can talk to them through the microphone as well as play. It does have options to automatically move it or you can manually move it this is hands-down, the best product and camera and laser pointer all in one if you are a parent of a fur baby, I truly highly recommend this product. Worth it!

On average, this camera is good enough. Looks very nice, Good quality. I love the laser toy feature there keeping the cat in tonus even if nobody is at home. However, the app is not well organized in my opinion. You can notice some lagging with the laser. Sound communication is terrible - you need to play with 2 buttons to speak and to hear. It would be better to have just one button in order to activate/disable the sound channel. I set 3 stars only because... After the free trial period ended, the cloud image previews stopped working (see, a screenshot). You have to open each of them to figure out what was found by the motion detector there. Even the purchase of a cloud subscription doesn't help to fix that. They have online help in the app but my experience was awful. They ask to describe the problem many times (initially by the robot, then several times again by the operator) even when the screenshots were provided. Finally, they asked me to provide a login and a password for my Eye4 account, telling me I can later create a new one. This sounded weird to me. I had to reject this request and gave up on these previews. I would say you can definitely buy it to monitor and play with pets but don't expect too much. UPDATE: My case has got the continue... I was reached out to by Sharon from the VStarcam VIP service team. Sharon is very professional. After asking several reasonable questions, Sharon quickly identified the issue on their side and fixed my problem without any actions from my side. This was the exact example I would expect from professional support. I have increased the rating to 5 stars in my review because the camera and the app work perfectly for me now. The buttons' functionality in the app is not so important because this is how it was designed and you just have to get used to it. Thank you Sharon for your great service.

Once you figure it out, the cam and app get the job done! Pros: The quality of the video feed is really impressive. The camera's range of motion allows you to really get an expansive view of the room you place it in. The motion detection and app notifications for this are helpful. While it lags a bit, the laser is a nice feature if you're using this for a pet while you're away. We have a 2-story house and keep this camera in one room. If I get nervous b/c I haven't seen the cat in a while, I know that just being able to turn on the laser will get her in the room so I can make sure she's still good! Great price point. Cons: Like others have said, the set up is not user friendly. I'm pretty tech savvy, and I did get a little frustrated. Thankfully, with all of the reviews on this site, I was able to figure out. The app that you download on your phone to control the camera and access the feed has horrible user interface. Definitely take some time as you set up the camera to familiarize yourself with the icons in the app so you can see first hand how they control the camera (i.e., before you use it to monitor your house/pet while you're away). The laser definitely has a lag but again, I think this is better than nothing! One very annoying thing, though - when I open the app to play the camera feed, it defaults to having the laser ON. My cat loves a laser, so it can get her all excited when she was just peacefully hanging out, and now she wants to play.

Could not for the life of me get the camera to connect to the wifi. On top of the aggravation of doing everything it instructs and it still not working, part of the set up is this horrible earsplitting screeching you have to have your phone play (on max volume) for it to "sense the waves of the connection" in order to connect. The screeching is on a 90second time-out too that you have to endure the entirety of when it doesn't inevitably connect. There has to be some other way to make the connection without the ear piercing screeching. It's so ridiculous it almost seems like the company is trolling you. The only way I could get it to work is through the hardwire connection. With that, connecting was fairly simple, and once it was connected the device seemed pretty good! Camera quality was good. Microphone and laser pointer works well. Controlling the movement of the camera was laggy but it worked. If it wasn't horribly frustrating and impossible to connect wirelessly then I would have rated it at least 3 stars and kept it. But given everything listed above, plus me not being able to use it where I need it due to the location of my router (since hardwire is my only option), I am absolutely sending this back. So I guess if you have the capability of hardwiring it to your router in the place you need it and dont want a wireless connection, then it's a good device to get! Otherwise steer clear!!

I bought this camera before I left state for surgery for several weeks to help me keep an eye on my cat. I had no issues with set up or the app it utilizes. the barcode on the bottom of the camera also scanned easily. I personally had no need for the motion sensing function, but my roommate utilized that feature on her own, and it works very well. she was able to adjust the sensitivity easily to. it provides app alerts when it detects motion and was able to be set to record until motion ended. The automatic night vision is incredibly clear and in grey scale, which i prefer over some night vision cameras green tone. I was across the country utilizing it and as long as it's been connected to wifi once it should connect fine. I only had issues when my personal connection at my new location wasn't strong. the microphone is pretty loud, but I didn't have a problem with that. It helped keep my boy calm to hear my voice here and there. I'm hoping they'll add a feature of recording messages in the future. Audio and video quality were also very decent, and the ability to save photos and videos is convenient. it just creates a new folder in your phone. it is outlet plug powered, but that's a minor downside for me. the Lazer pointer in the camera is pretty powerful and has a great distance. it's attached to the camera swivel and is controlled with a virtual joystick. it also has some pre-set patterns, and the ability to program your own. overall I think for the cost it's an excellent quality camera. not too big either.

My camera's picture came pink, heres a photo I took of my cat when I was testing it out. I thought it was just night vision but its like this during the day too. So I'll be returning it regardless, thought I would give y'all an in-depth review. A couple of things: - Laser can be turned off but it automatically comes on when you leave the app and come back or exit the specific camera menu. It can overstimulate your pet when you wanna check on your pet often. - Connectivity is actually not that bad! Granted theres only a couple of devices on my wifi. - Comes with an ethernet cable if you want to physically connect it to your wifi but not necessary it can connect to your wifi. - Power wire is short so if you want to place it on your ceiling, good luck. Overall The camera for the price is nice but the few kinks it has makes it frustrating to use. The night vision, person tracking, image quality and connectivity are all great. The fact that the laser constantly turns on by itself is a real deal breaker though.

I bought this for my fiancé for Christmas. I wanted to give her a cat toy but the security camera functions sold me, something that can keep her safe and let her play with her cat from far away is a win win. If you look at my image of the app, the button on the top right of the control section turns on and off the laser pointer. So ima nd our of cat mode basically. Moving the dot in the center of the control panel points the camera and the laser pointer. The security functions are nice, you can set it up to send alerts on motion. I set it up and got alerts even at slight motions, it’s an excellent security camera as a result. You can set it up to to do pop up notifications on the phone. See the images. Pros: 1. It’s more security camera than toy 2. You can talk through it and see day or night 3. You control the laser pointer, it’s not like randomized 4. I love the motion results, now I can be sure my fiancé knows if anyone is in her home. Cons: 1. It creates a feedback loop of you open the mic close to it 2. The device has to be plugged in, I wish it was rechargeable or something 3. It’s got just.. really poor directions. Luckily, it’s very easy to set up. If you watch my video I tell you exactly what you need to do. *all photos uploaded are either of the device, the app that controls it, alerts from the app, or were taken by the device. All photos are relevant.

We have an older house and the floor makes noise when you step on it. So sometimes if i walk into his room to check him that wake him up. I really like this camera system which I got for my little one. Now I can monitor from screen when he falls asleep and when he gets up. it works perfectly to meet my demand. This camera is really easy to set up and really convenient to use also. There are two button very useful to me: It has function as a speaker , and at the same time it also can collecting the voice from the same room where you place it. When my little one sleep i will put the screen on and I can work at another room, I can see exactly what is going on in his room and when he starts to move around. Sometimes I took it to living room also to monitor where he crawling. This is definitely a good buy product.

I'm very happy with this purchase. It was simple to set up the camera and app. The camera quality is excellent. I can now watch my furbaby when I leave the house without her. It will also come in handy as added security to my home. The size of the unit is great and is unobtrusive.

Great camera! I don’t understand why some people leave bad reviews. Yes, there are a lot of settings, and at first, I was a bit confused, but my daughter helped me figure it out. This camera has been a real lifesaver for us. After surgery, my cat has to stay in isolation for a while, and thanks to the built-in laser, he doesn’t get as bored when we’re not home. I can control the laser from my phone and watch him in real time. Some people say that you can’t save videos to a memory card—that’s not true! You just need to set it up correctly. Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase. The camera is excellent! 🔥✨

Surprising clear video for the price. Even the night vision mode was clear enough. Great product

Had trouble setting up at first, but then moved the camera somewhere else and no issue. Great quality and picture.

The camera is good nothing to complain although it lacks privacy securities. You’ll have to trust whoever it is who develop it and the app. The other day I was at home and the camera simply turned on and started looking around. That felt really bad because there is only 2 people who uses this camera and it was none of them. So someone invaded it somehow. I would think 1000 times before buying something like that again from an untrustworthy source.
