I purchased this particular camera because it was advertised as not needing a subscription for basic notifications. Like everyone else, the system worked perfect for the first week (a little too perfect, but that's not a complaint). Once that free trial expired, crickets. I never got another notification again. I chatted with support twice, repeating the exact same steps and being told that my 2-week old camera may have been faulty. There are countless threads saying the exact same thing - the notifications worked during the free trial and stopped working when it ended. The last guy I chatted with, after all of the explanation and troubleshooting, asked me if I wanted to sign up for a paid subscription, since that was the only way it worked. if that was not a slap to the face, I don't know what it. I get that the camera was only like $25 at Walmart, but there needs to be a class action suit for false advertising. I've read horror stories of peoples homes being robbed, and nothing was captured/recorded and no notifications were sent. My apartment is being sold, so the landlord and realtor are constantly in and out of my apartment while I am at work. I also have severe anxiety, so trying to work while also trying to watch my camera feed live for an 8 hour shift is not how I planned to use this camera. I see that Roku "bots" post the same generic troubleshooting steps on these threads, but we all can't possibly have faulty brand new cameras. This needs fixed asap.
