You also get free instant Cloud service so you can capture a snapshot of anyone coming into the camera’s view with a more precise motion sensitivity and grid placement you can control from the camera’s app to pick up motion in any area in the camera’s view you designate as important. That Cloud clip is crucial if the doorbell camera is vandalized. You will always have 7 days of Cloud backup to view that incident without the need of the SD card or any backup device. My favorite backup option for this special camera allows you to view and record the doorbell video right onto your existing security camera system. Other video doorbell camera manufacturers want to keep their cameras in a closed cloud system, meaning, they don’t allow the doorbell’s video streams to be recorded by another security camera system because that may deter you from possibly paying them a monthly fee to view your camera footage from their paid monthly cloud service which is really the bulk of their income. My sister has security cameras with the Ring doorbell added separately.
