Using your smart home devices

[Nicole_15]

I recently have invested and got a Roku indoor camera I'm just a tad confused on why a subscription is required for me to get notifications regarding the video footage like how come there isn't options for just basic free package for those with lower incomes?

Hi, @Nicole_15.

Welcome to the Roku Community!

We'd be happy to help. We have many options available completely free without a subscription. Here is what you can do without a subscription:

1. Live streaming, no cloud recording
2. Basic motion and sound detection, no filtering for people, package deliveries, and more
3. Push notifications
4. 5-minute cool-down period between event alerts

Additionally, you may refer to Roku's official support article for more information and guidelines on How to sign up for and manage a Roku Smart Home Subscription for cameras & doorbells | Official Roku...

If you have further questions or inquiries, please don't hesitate to let us know.

Best wishes,
Kash
