The pay cloud service has been down for a few days and they’re still charging for it. I’ve been a customer there’s about a year now and have multiple cameras and other pieces of equipment have been completely satisfied. A few days ago the cloud service quit working and I kept getting billed and paid for it. I just contacted them today and they told me if they’ve been aware of it for days and they do not have a fix in sight. I asked him about refund and they told me that they don’t do refunds except on the annual plan. I have 12 cameras with them. Of course they did not tell me that until after 30 minutes of conversation. I think the company’s days are limited. They’re taking peoples money right now and not giving them a service. I think they’re preparing for bankruptcy I hope I’m wrong You should stay away.

Gets job done, but finicky if running multiple not-synced light strips.. So never have I ever actually gotten onto anywhere to specifically leave a review. But I am here, perhaps mostly in hopes that the developers see and maybe take my “issue” under consideration. But in my experience so far from using this app (approximately 2-3 weeks), it has been a slightly more negative experience than the inverse for me. The app seems rather finicky when trying to toggle the power buttons for each light. Perhaps it works better/this problem isn’t able to be noticed if only one strip is paired/being used, I don’t know for a fact because I am using a total of six. And I have yet to buy the equipment needed in order to sync them all together. So for now I have to deal with interacting with each one individually. It often times, it will act like the screen glitches when I tap the power button on one light strip, and instead of it turning on/off, a different one turns on instead. Apart from that complaint, it seems to work relatively fine, and at least gets the job done. I would appreciate seeing some kind of patch update that corrects the aforementioned issue. Otherwise, no complaints. I’m a little more inclined to give it two stars, but I decided to be generous and rate it at three.

Geenie is genius!. I do have ring cameras but needed something different to supplement and my nephew says that he’s had these cameras for a long time and they work well at a lower price. So I went and bought them set them up and I’m really impressed with them. They do pretty much everything, the night vision with lights on ,looks great,You have many choices like turning indicator off ,turning the infrared off so you can see better at night through the glass , it alerts you every movement and records on a loop if you put a memory card in it ,gives you screenshots if you so desire and you can record what you can desire as long as you have a memory card and I mean they’ve done a really great job ,I am so impressed. The only reason why did not give you five stars is because the power cord is so short so you’ll always need an extension cord. That’s the one thing they could improve on. You do need like a dashboard so you can see all cameras without touching anything they ha a version of it but it doesn’t stay on when you open the app. Otherwise for the price it’s genius and I love it they are small you can stick them in anywhere really really great for the price thank you!

Even worse since update.. Before this update I always said the only way this could get any worse was if the cameras does refuse to connect at all… install the update and guess what exactly what happened. They take at the very least a full minute to a minute and a half to connect to the app and when they do connect it is so glitchy that it will only show a couple of seconds before it freezes up and then says timed out or it just goes to a blank screen and nothing happens. This is not a problem with my Wi-Fi, I have full service on my phone and excellent Wi-Fi. I’ve reset the cameras. I’ve changed their locations. I have reset my wifi box. This is a problem with the app!!!! If you have cameras in or around your home and you’re needing to look at them for any reason, chances are you don’t want to have to wait a minute and a half for the video to pull up…. If it even pulls up at all! Is there some way to uninstall these updates? When I first got these cameras they were fine. I’ve emailed the company, No reply. Customer service should at least pretend to care.

Technology at its finest. So first off I will start by saying I myself have not had any issues with this app and it’s ability to connect to my Wi-Fi or any issues with my Wi-Fi to connect the app to any of the Merkury LED bulbs, WiFi plug-ins or cameras that I own. To be honest with you it’s great knowing the fact that I can turn any of my lights on or off in any room at any given time with the push of a button on app screen is just amazing and then add the fact that you can change the color and brightness of these bulbs on screen sliders to adjust the brightness as well as the on screen color wheel to set the color of your choice. Also I love the fact that you can set a schedule so you can program a schedule for your lights to turn on and off while you’re at home or while you’re away this is great if you’re away from the house and you want to program your porch lights or garage lights to come on and off at certain time intervals. It’s been a game changer as well as innovative and fun for our family. The only issue I had and this has nothing to do with the app or the product is if someone manually turns the light off by the switch itself while the device is on and been turned on through the app this puts the light into off-line mode and you have no control over it until you that switch is turned back on.

Minor issues but overall it’s a good app. Bought the cw007 yesterday and mounted it to watch our front door from our window inside, since we have recently had a couple packages “disappear” from our doorstep. I wanted something cheap and easy to use until we can afford something better and saw that this model had good reviews. I love everything about it except for the fact that the playback won’t work on the app, it keeps saying “failed to connect.” We made sure the micro sd was empty on our laptop before plugging it into the camera. I formatted it through the app at least 3 times. Restarted the app. Restarted my phone. Restarted the camera. Etc. and even though it looks like playback is recording on the app it won’t connect. Preview which is live stream is working fine, but the main reason I bought it is so it can record and playback so I can see what is happening with our packages. Until this gets fixed or until customer service responds to my request I sent them yesterday I will be leaving a 1 star review. Update: within a few days of posting this review the playback issue has been fixed. Guess there was an issue with the app because we stopped trying to mess with it. Never received a response from customer service but overall just glad the issue was fixed.

Love the camera, the app isn’t as great. Well not anymore.. We bought our Geeni camera around Christmas time because our packages tend to come up missing. Everything about it is great. My only concern is that ever since the recent update, I am unable to select all of my notification snapshots for deletion. I don’t look at them often and they tend to add up pretty quick. I swear I scrolled for an hour straight one day deleting the snap notifications. It is starting to make my phone lag because it’s taking up so much space and I don’t have a few hours to kill just to delete everything. I have thought about deleting the app instead. I wish Geeni would fix this and put it back the way it was before. **Developers... anyway that this issue will be fixed? I have deleted and reinstalled the app, I have deleted the notifications too! But no matter what I do, THEY COME BACK! 😫

Lights are annoying. Okay love the fact that I’m able to dim lights. But I have a few complaints about the features this app offers. First off it should let you customize the scenes and make your own scenes. For example, rainbow should have all the colors the light has to offer and allow you to speed up the changing for parties and stuff. It’s too dam limited. And second, my lights come off my network literally once a week and we pay for expensive WiFi so I know that’s not the issue here. It’s beyond annoying these lights keep coming off my network because they flicker until I set them up again and then I loose all my groupings and have to recreate! Beyond obnoxious especially at 3am when you go to get some water and instead of your light being on dim setting like you had it, it flickers at 100% brightness and blinds the heck out of you. Please I beg you, sort this out or I’m going to have to stop buying geeni products and find something else

Lights/app not working. The lights were fine and responsive at first but after months of having it, it’s starting to become unresponsive to the app or it just says it’s offline when the lights are clearly on. Tried resetting it via manual and easy mode both cannot find the lights or it says I’m not connected to a network. The issue is not my network because I can load websites no problem. I made the mistake of deleting the lights to start over now they are constantly fast blinking. It’s a headache to try to figure out and this app as well, so I give up Update: Problem resolved, my router and modem were still using WiFi 5 even with 3 bars I still had slow, buggy, and unresponsive internet at times. I HIGHLY recommend going to purchase a router that’s equipped with WiFi 6. Now my lights are working and my device can find them easily. I don’t write reviews normally unless I had an issue, but I changed my review and rating to 5 stars.

Great Product, Needs Improvement.. These smart lights in combination with the controller app are a great quality product, & I would have given it 5 stars, however after over a year of use in a house with 7 children I can tell you there needs to be some improvement. First off, the connectivity is spotty at best and the app keeps dropping the previously installed & properly set up bulbs. It seems like every time I open the app I am having to re add all of my devices to get them working again. My second issue & the biggest one in my opinion is the way that the bulb is reset by flicking the light switch quickly needs to be changed because as soon as my 3 year old realized he could make the lights blink by flicking the light switch he began to make a game of it and is constantly resetting the bulbs which is a real pain to have to fix on a daily basis, multiple times a day. If you can address and fix these issues I think this would be a superior product & would gladly give this app and product combination a 5 star rating because as of right now these smart lights have been more hassle than they’re worth which has me seriously considering switching to a standard LED bulbs as opposed to these smart lights.

The latest version, 1.7.0, broke it. The app has changed to be more stupid than before. Before the update, all the motion detection screen captures were listed together under Notification Center, whether it was from a single camera or multiple ones. You scrolled down to view all the captures, when you reached the bottom, if you wanted to delete all, just tap Delete, Select all, then confirm. Now, they group the screen captures by camera, and they put Select All on top of the screen so when you start to scroll down, the Select All disappears. So now when you reach the bottom and want to delete all, after you tap Delete you have to scroll all the way up so the Select All will show up. And since I got three cameras, I need to repeat this process three times, since the screen captures are now grouped by camera. Very very very idiotic! Previous update didn't change the interface much, but the cameras connected a little faster than before. This new version, not only did it force me to log in again, but the interface was significantly different I had to relearn how to use it. But the worst is the connect time. Now I tap on one of the cameras I have to wait much longer, even longer than before it was last updated. Why would you take the time to make it worse???

Works when it wants to!. I have been using this app for some Merkury color changing lightbulbs that i bought a few months ago i was super excited as i am trying to automate my home. First i have 3 bulbs that i combined into one setting via this app and synced with my echo dot to turn on by voice. Worked fine until i didn’t need to turn the lights on for a few hours only to have the echo tell me that the “Living room” cannot be found. Went into the app to manually turn the lights on only to find out that that didn’t work either. Then i set the timer for then to turn on at a certain time again only to find out that the time had passed and the lights did not come on automatically and again to find out that the grouping for “Living room” crashed again. Hopefully this can be fixed with an update or 2, really buggy and it’s kind of sad that this is the application that this company that makes the bulbs, believes in and is suggesting you use. i believe this app could be great but wish there was another suggested app to run my bulbs on instead of this one.

For the price, no major complaints.. Picked up the indoor security camera from a BIG BOX store. Setting up I hit a snag. I have both 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz networks in my home. My particular camera is designed to operate on using the 2.4 GHz network of only. Went thru the setup many times with many devices and it would not work at all. Double checking every time that I was connecting to the 2.4Ghz network. I could get ally the way thru to a solid blue light, but the app would give an error msg that it can’t connect. Just about to give up and return the camera I had an “Ah Ha” moment. My two networks (2.4 GHz and 5.9 GHz) have different SSID’s. To simply things around the house I gave the two different networks the same password. When setting up the camera I would select the 2.4 GHz network and type in the password which is the same for both SSID’s (network names). Would not connect at all on the app, but the camera would go from flashing red, to flashing blue, then solid lit blue as if connected. So I logged into my router and changed the 5.0 GHz password by adding an extra character to the end. Two separate passwords fixed the connection problem. * * * TLDR, will not work on 2.4 GHz network if the password is the same as a 5.0 GHz network.

Amazing, but.... Where do I start? This app has everything you could want with all the devices you might get! I’m a fierce supporter of this company, their light bulbs are extremely high quality, and the program runs amazing! I’ve set several smart scenes already, and I’ve been working on the automatic modes, trying to work out what I can or can’t do. All in all, a company deserving of 5 stars! However, I’ve noticed a slight problem. When I try to set up smart scenes, I have very limited choices and capabilities. I can set it to white, color (that the light is currently set to) or scene presets, such as rainbow, rave, etc... I believe that this app could benefit from a broader selection of options, perhaps placed under an “advanced scenes” tag. This is not even covering the issues with automatic scenes, and I will not cover them, as I have not tested all the settings in depth, but I HAVE noted that there is choices of scene 1,2,3,and 4. Nothing more. Other than these small issues, this is fantastic and easy to use! Great job overall!

Recently Purchased on a whim!. Hi America 🇺🇸 This is Big B. From Leavenworth Kansas and whoever else is checking out this review☝️. Just like the person before me, I really didn’t expect much from these cameras seeing the were reasonably cheap or inexpensive I should say. These cameras are Grrrrreat!!! Not at all what I expected. I couldn’t believe the high definition nor the sound quality. If you are looking👀 for a camera system that works really well for a great low price please go out and purchase these babies you will love ❤️ them but don’t take my word for it, go out and purchase one ☝️ first then try it out I can guarantee the quality and even the fairly simple set up will blow your mind. Hey! People! If you are into saving money and want a high quality security camera 🎥 at a low and very reasonable price, go out and buy you one ☝️ of these MERKURY Innovations SMART WI-FI CAMERAS it’s sure to blow your minds and catch you by Surprise. Your friend Big B in Lv. Kansas.

App is okay but could be greatly improved. We got two cameras to use in our windows for security reasons. The cameras work great and were easy to set up. The app really seems to be lacking some features and has problems with play back. Sometimes playback works the first time and sometimes I have to restart the app several times to get it to work. There are several things that could make the app better. Being able to view more than one camera at a time would be amazing. Also having an easier way to scroll through the playback would be good. Being able to control the speed of the playback would be nice. I think the biggest help would be if there was a website you could view your cameras from. My husband doesn’t have a phone and his tablet and computer are both windows so he has no way of viewing our cameras. We will end up replacing our cameras in the future so he is able to access them and so we have more options with playback, recording, and the ability to view more than one camera at once.

The Best on the Market for the price!. Since 2018 I have been using Geeni and Merkury Innovations products, including this app. For $20 at my local Walmart I was hooked! My first camera turned into a now whole home setup with Indoor and Outdoor controls or all my lights, outlets, small appliances plus more. Very easy to use and so simple to set up. I have had “Indoor” rated cameras that have been outside for 4 years now (the same ones/never replaced). Now I will say that I have used other camera systems in this price range and a bit more, but these products always stand the test of time and use. Definitely worth every bit of your money. These products are not flawless, but the ease of access and inexpensive products to build your smart home. I love how you can customize the app with pictures and groups. The automations as well are pretty neat. Works great with Alexa as well; making turning off the bedroom light a very simple task, no need to get up or get your phone. I love Geeni and Merkury!!!!!

Blown away. At first I was very skeptical about purchasing some lightbulbs of this brand and not knowing anything about it but I am absolutely blown away by the product and the app itself. You can control your lights from anywhere in the world very easy installation and no hub required the app is very user-friendly you can name all the bulbs in your home different names for each individual room I can Control each one individually to your liking. You can adjust brightness change the colors of the bulbs set schedules for on an off time and set the mood lighting for different settings which is very convenient. The only minor downfall I have with the app is that sometimes after I load it it does not connect through the cellular connection and I have to shut down the app and reopened it other than that I am blown away by this product and very pleased that I purchased it.

I thought I wrote a review already. But I’ll write another! I’ve had this little camera for over a year now, set it up in the office to see what my cat got up to when I wasn’t there and now have it in the living room pointed at my dog’s crate where he stays when we go somewhere. After the initial setup, it’s been a great little camera. I downloaded the wrong app at first, as I suspected a lot of people did who have this one star because it didn’t work, but called customer service and got the help I needed to get it straight. Btw, app is Geeni, NOT Merkury. Also, I recall I had to make sure the camera was synced to the 2.4 wifi and not the stronger 5 (we have both, and at first I automatically put it on the 5, apologies that I don’t recall the actual name but every time I sign into my account to get my internet connection I see both so I remember the numbers, I hope if anyone reads this they know what I mean) so that was also something I had to straighten out. Once done everything’s been fine, but recently I switched phones and have a new number, and I can’t see any place to change that, so I contacted customer service in-app and am waiting for a response. If I can’t change it I’ll have to create another account, I guess. Minor annoyance but doable since it doesn’t involve set up of the product haha. I hope this helps someone out there. It’s a good product, give it a chance!

Aggravated. I have had geeni app now for 3 years. I have Always been in pressed I am not anymore. I’m late for work trying to figure out first off why all my lights are no longer to be found. I never deleted a thing and it keeps telling ne my number and email is still active. Well then let me reorder my freaking list back that I never deleted. This stupid thing will NOT catch my network anymore telling me it can’t do 5 g then I get on the other network still in the same household to reprogram and it tells be network busy. Sick of it. Never had this problem before I’ve worked on this for weeks bow. I quit I also have hue. I think I am just going to stick with them. It’s ridiculous not happy at all. Hue never makes it so difficult so I guess I will sit in the dark. LOL. Do sonethibg about this because you will lose customers. Everyone has 5 g now

Pay big $ to see ads.. horrible... I’m going to probably just throw my camera in the trash after this app update.. The app incorporating ads is the LAST STRAW for me. Can’t even quickly see what’s going on if there’s an emergency etc because there are ADS when you first open the app!!!...(mind you I SPENT $100 on THIS?!!?!! I shouldn’t have to see ads ANYWHERE. It’s unacceptable.) We bought two cameras and one of them completely stopped working.. the charging cable completely fell apart!.. Anyway, the audio quality of the cameras is so horrible that you can’t even hear anything on playback unless it’s loud.. seeking through the timeline doesn’t work on apple.. TONS of glitches and I don’t think I’m ever buying more cameras (or ANYTHING that uses this app, if I’m being honest..) I NEED to be able to quickly see what’s happening on my cameras!!!! Ads upon startup, AND it still shows ads when the app’s already open (& you try to switch back to •efficiently & quickly• check on your camera!) It’s ridiculous to do that to paying customers!!!! Signed, disgruntled and angry customer.

App is glitchy and not easy to use. The interface is really clunky and hard to figure out, and even worse, it bugs out and doesn’t work at all half the time. It either gives a blank screen, or it crashes, or an error when you try to go into one of your products, or it doesn’t register anything you hit. I have 5 Merkury LED strips, so I haven’t tried it with other smart products, so take that for what it’s worth. It takes a good 15 minutes of fumbling around the app to connect a new device. It never finds it right away, once it does it never connects right, every time you try again you have to re-enter your router password…then on the 7th or 8th try it magically works, despite doing nothing different. Once you’re connected, it’s finicky and not user friendly to make changes to the lighting. To be fair, some of these issues may be due to the Merkury strips themselves, but I also have 5 strips from the other major brand that starts with G and their app always discovers the new product immediately, and is way easier to use. Update: have had these strips for a long time now, and the app continues to be terrible. The app from Govee is perfect and I have never once had any issue. The Merkury (Geeni) lights look just as good as the ones from Govee, but eventually I will probably replace them with Govee anyway just because this app is such trash.

Minor issues but overall worth it for a quick and cheap security. I got two of these from Walmart and placed one of them on my front porch facing my driveway and another on the end of my house facing the road. The one on the front porch works well due to it being close to my WiFi modem, the one on the house not so well due to it being farther away. Also, if a vehicle is driving at a decent rate of speed it will be very blurry. Another thing is when taking a picture at night of a car traveling by “creeping” you can’t see or tell what the car is or anything due to such a bad glare on the picture from the headlights. Another thing is I can’t figure out how to share the cameras with my wife so she can also have them on her phone as well! Anyone willing to let me know I’d sure appreciate it. But honestly, overall for $28 no way you can go wrong with these especially being able to speak through them and hear back with your phone.

Very functional & user friendly! Highly recommend!. We have been using geeni for almost 1 year and have never had any issues. We have 2 of the Merkury indoor cameras from Walmart for a very affordable price (~ $50). The picture quality is excellent and only has a 1-2 second delay (which could be our Internet connection). This was the first time we’ve ever tried any cameras for our home but wanted a pet cam for while we were away during the day for work. The app is very simple and straightforward; most other options require a monthly subscription or 1 time payment, and with it being our first time using anything like this it was nice to have a free app! You can connect several devices to monitor your cameras and even set up a motion detection which is convenient! Highly recommend this app and the cameras!

The connection process is just painful.. Honestly the user interface to connect devices is not the best in my honest opinion, God forbid your wifi turns off you’ll have to work with your device for hours to get it to work. This is the fourth time I’ve had to reconnect these lights and each time is even more painful and upsetting. Especially after a day of trying to fix my own pc and then this, Honestly I’m done and I’ve given up on these lights. I’m really just settling for Hue which is even more expensive. Or I can just go back to normal lights because honestly it’s much better than having to deal with this. I’d recommend an easier to use user interface and better AP connection because right now it’s really not helping out. On top of that my wifi is strong and has never had an issue but for some odd reason the app keeps on saying that “Oh it’s just your internet”. I honestly am at a lost for words at how disappointing this whole ordeal is.

You can’t beat the quality to price ratio. Why four stars? I started buying these products when they were marketed as “Merkury” so I have plenty of experience with the product. I have multiple LED strips, multiple LED RGB lightbulbs and a few cameras. The setup process is SO simple, the UI is fantastic and the google home compatibility makes them literally the best bang for your buck. Again, why four stars? While all the pros are a sure fact, the feature set within the app is limited. The inability to create scenes that work as selected seems strange and some lights have different hues compared to others, although projecting the same color. While minor I say this.... This is a true “fan boy” request. If these lights could sync with the music playing from google or from an external source with my google home as the listener, I would give this a 5 star rating. Along with the expansion of the UI overall. Happy to help🤓

CW007 camera. I bought this to keep an eye on my dog amd it works gretwhen I am home. But once I leave home whenever I try to look at the live feed ot says “constructing encryption channel “ with the spinning wheel then after a few minutes I get the message, “constructing encryption channel failed” this has been happening for the past two days since. I tried to request help through the app with no response to the 3 messages sent. I have an iPhone and made sure it was connected to the 2.4ghz wifi when I set up the camera. I haven’t yet purchased the micro sd card but for live feed but according to the manual that is needed if you want to record and playback. I also bought the doorbell and also can’t that set up cia the easy method or QR. The software and set up of these devices shouldn’t be this difficult especially since I am somewhat tech savvy! I checked the articles on the website and there was nothing about this error! Not helpful information there!!!! I’ll try again tonight but may just need to give up and return.

Issues. I have many light bulbs, a smart plug, smart power strip, door bell, & led light strip. Recently my app crashed, none of my smart stuff would even turn back on, so I had to remove them and re-add them. Which is a headache, my light strip after ruffly 1 hr of trying to reset it to repair, it was a success. Then the bulbs were equally non-responsive to reseting as well, but didn’t take an hour. The phone number I signed up with, is no longer an active number, I cannot change my phone number, apparently you have to delete all devices, delete the account, then start fresh. That’s absolutely ridiculous, I just bought 15 new light bulbs, but will be returning them instead of opening to use them. I have already replaced my doorbell with a Ring bell. The Geeni door bell never made any sounds on my phone, even when I wasn’t at home, which defeated the purpose of knowing if someone is at my door when Im not home. The app is flawed, not being able the update a changed phone number is crazy. When the next person gets my phone number, technically they can take control of my geeni app. I will say, I’ve had everything for over 6 months, so I waited to be able to give an honest review.

Newest update still 10-15 seconds before usable. This is a great tool. It basically makes the clap on clap off days seem archaic. It would be a five star app if it didn’t have the lag of 10-15 seconds when opening on a good day. This makes no difference which time of day or whether on WiFi or on cell phone service controlling the devices. There was one update a few back I was really happy with, it opened in abiut 4-5 seconds usable. That makes a big difference when you want to light up an area that is being watched by cameras when something is lurking. And just plain aggravating when sitting in the living room and takes 20-25 seconds to turn on a lamp. Easier now to just get up and turn it on. Anyway. It has the lag on the iPad and another phone as well. But if yours is quick, faaaantastic we need phones like yours. But it’s an awesome tool. Don’t forget it is a convenient usable very smart app. I have five geeni devices and power strips I use almaot daily. I will continue to buy geeni power strips and items as such. They have been well made and I’ve had the oldest one for over two years out in a shop environment. Good stuff no issues. I have the outdoor rated double outlet and it’s been sturdy and well made so far. Great app after you go make a sandwich and come back to continue using it. Mixed review I know. I will continue to buy and use geeni items and apps, good stuff. Three stars for sloooow load

The ONLY brand I want to buy!!. I have bought the smart light bulbs, led strip, and also one of the indoor cameras and they have all been wonderful!! I had bought a different brand smart bulb because I was out and didn’t remember the name at the time, but that brand was a nightmare to even set-up... I don’t even use it. Honestly, I don't look at the other brands of anything that Merkury also makes. The ONLY issue I have had at all was the power going out that my entire apartment became a strobe light and it was not as easy to fix this time for some reason, or it coulda been everything was strobing that was making it feel difficult. Honestly, I will not even consider this a complaint. Merkury, please DON’T GREEDY and jack up all your prices like so many others. Greed is an ugly demon. I have seen so many prices double and I would hate for Merkury to do the same and destroy the respect I have currently. But truly, Merkury is the ONLY brand I look at for“smart products”. Easy set-up and great prices!

Ok but needs some improvements. I use the led light bulbs in my room and I find it being a little unreliable. Sometimes one light will be offline and the other won’t and I have to restart the app so it isn’t too bad. My main complaint is I have to go to each bulb individually to turn them off even if I set them both in the same room. Group control would be great where I can press a button and they’ll both change colors or press a button and they’ll both turn off. Home kit support would be great as well but I understand that Apple isn’t very third party friendly with it. Make the app more intuitive. The pairing process was ok at first I had some issues with it being out of range from my router but that was solved by using my WiFi extended as the access point. Overall great value just need a few minor improvements with the software.

Useless Wi-Fi Camera. Junk! I placed two cameras at my camp and when I went to playback the Geeni software provided quite a few color daytime snapshots of my private drive. While scrolling through the photos, The cameras captured photos of intruders around my camp. I immediately downloaded the pictures for the cops. Then this lousy Geeni program shuts my iPad down with a battery at 100% and starts saying I have no SD card. Why/ How did they record the shots for the last week. Then they keep banker hours and they are unavailable to chat or call. I should of waited the extra 3 or 4 days and bought the Momentum. They make a camera that keeps 7 days of action. You can record on demand! These Merkury cameras are a waste of money and time.I was in a hurry and needed anything that would film thieves who frequent my property. So, this system takes snapshots of motion, but then must delete your photos while you look at them. Pure junk! Don’t buy. you will be throwing your money away. Go with a Momentum.

Good customer service.. It’s not perfect & seems cheaply made. Some one could easily rip it off but the best thing you don’t need to pay for a subscription & the price was right. It had some hiccups at first & the updates can help but once in a while it acts funny & I think it’s how the button gets pressed by others. I have a digital door bell & set it to the chime type in the App. If it stops working I ring the back door & that always gets it going again. I been wanting a smart doorbell to work with IOS HomeKit to look out to see if I need to plow snow with out going upstairs to look but didn’t want to pay the price. Really don’t need it to & the App works just fine. It dose alert your Apple Watch when someone is there even away from home. I recommend it mostly when packages gets dropped off & the sensor alerts you when someone is close to the door & sends you a picture of them. Its not bad for what it is & I recommend it.

Geeni OW101. I’m a DIY personality, so I have every type of battery operated tool they sell. I keep the Chargers and batteries, for all my electric tools, inside our home in my hobby room so the batteries do not overheat. Anyone that has ever had to buy batteries for power tools can tell you they are not cheap! The only problem I had was forgetting to remove the batteries from the charger, or unplug them when I finished a project. If you leave the batteries charging constantly, it is very hard on the battery cells and eventually destroys them. After making several trips to the closest hardware store to buy new batteries and spending over a $100 on each one, I quickly started looking for a solution. That is when I came across Geeni’s smart plugs. I bought one and took it home to install it, which was a breeze, and set up an automated schedule for all my battery chargers. I have it set to turn on every few days to charge any dead batteries that are on the charger, and even set up a schedule to power off everything nightly in case I forget. I loved all the features of the app and charger so much, that I quickly went back and bought several more plugs for the house and garage. When my wife noticed them, she had me install one under the couch that controls multiple lamps in the living room. I soon connected the app to Alexa so she can turn the lamps on or off through it rather than always stealing my phone! Great product and very easy to install!

Geeni Products. I have one camera that’s vision is pink, doesn’t have sound, small view, and the motion sensor is detecting nothing.I have four different cameras that all have different device settings and they all do different things. The app has had a variety of different issues including I can’t view the camera view in full screen mode, the server times out and I also can’t access sound. We also bought window sensors just bought them and the battery’s died within one week and they don’t make those types of batteries in stores so we haven’t even had those sensors operating when they say it’s suppose to last months. We bought a doorbell also and it is not compatible without having a power source ran through to your breaker box. At night the picture isn’t clear and freezes up until I exit the view. Sometimes my cameras don’t catch people walking by. The cameras need to catch people walking around and not just a bush moving. I don’t think they are the best cameras. They are cheap and have many issues. Tech support is not helpful. I have subscriptions to the cloud and I still can’t access the cloud so I’m paying for nothing and I am very technologically advanced and this is cheap product and it doesn’t operate correctly. I wish Geeni would step up there game cause I’m not impressed there’s problems left and right.

GOT TO LOVE THESE! Period. I’ve had my 1st camera since 2018 and still referring all my people to Walmart or the app to purchase theirs… The only thing is not being weather proof and sometimes as I’m watching the feed it closes out but the 24/7 recording is my go to!! Those that only record motion and 10 seconds aren’t worth crap cuz something’s happen before the motion is actually picked up, especially if u have crap service as we do with spectrum… it I could still run my 6 cameras and a few others that have to use the 2 G bandwidth I would Most def give another company a try but no one else is out here . So we are stuck until Verizon. But OVERALL LIL’ CHEAP BUT PERFECT GEENI IN A BOTTLE CAMERAS R A+ will always be my go too!!! Always plus we subscribe to the cloud on the year subscriptions for all 6 and it’s still cheaper than anything else!!! I jus need an outside weather proof camera that possibly also will follow the movement too!! I’ll be ur beta tester!! Hook w sista up!! ❤️🧡💚💛💙

Perfect. We have security cameras in our house. Unexpectedly something happened to the cable and we needed to upgrade our whole system. Unfortunately that wasn’t in our budget. Our biggest concern was our handicapped daughter. We had a camera in her room to be sure she’s ok at all times. I found this camera by luck to ‘hold us over’ until we could afford our upgrade. Well, this camera is BETTER than the system we had! It literally took less than a minute to program/set up and It’s an app on our phones. We can program it for motion alerts so we know when she gets up. It saves screen shot ‘notifications’ of alerts to delete later if you don’t need them. It has Sound so we can hear her and a speaker to talk to her if we need to! So reasonably priced we invested in a few more (so far), We’re up to 3 now!! We can check on her and our home at any time! It’s Fabulous!

Crappy. I bought LED strips for my children’s room (2 rooms 4 packs) and I can’t get either pack connected to my WiFi. The contacted Customer Seevice which wasn’t helpful at all. He said I needed to download their other app “Merkury Smart” so I tried tht and it kept saying it couldn’t connect to the Bluetooth or WiFi. So he said he’d be sending a email for me to send a screenshot of the page I can’t get past and he’ll forward it it their tech dept. by then time he sent the email (2 hrs later) I had already taken them down and trashed them. Upset I wasted almost $50 for nothing. I have the receipt but not the packaging so nope can’t return them to the store for a refund. Highly upset!! Over the summer I redo my kids bedrooms while they are with my mom so when they come home they have a fresh new room for school and a lil surprise for them 🥰. But my 13 yr old just kept saying “I wish we could get them to work my room would be litty” so surprise ruined for him the smaller kids said it would’ve been cool. I wouldn’t recommend this product or anything else they make. If you do you are risking your money. Next time I’ll check reviews before I buy LED Strips

Geenie Real Value, Good as Ring or Nest for 1/2 to 1/3 the Cost. We had a Nest video doorbell on our previous house. It worked great; my wife and I were able to monitor all the real estate agents and potential buyers to know when we could return home after showings. Nest was wired. I bought a Geenie wireless doorbell for our new home at Batteries Plus for 1/3 the cost of the Nest unit. It works the same way, sending us notifications on our mobile devices, sounds great, and gives a good quality image. I would have given it 5 stars except for it needs monthly recharging. Easy to recharge, though, with a 300mA mobile charging device. Installed a 128GB SanDisk microSD to record and play back. Power went out when ZETA passed and Geenie worked the whole time audibly alerting us when power went off and came back on, giving us video of the storm the entire time. I recommend it to anyone shopping for a video doorbell.

Great App and Product Line (Good Prices Too). Just starting using your WiFi smart plugs and a WiFi camera this week and so far all seems well, I was super impressed with how easy it was to set it all up with the app to get devices connected to WiFi and linked to account and firmware updated on camera and video/picture quality seems pretty impressive based on size and price of camera I was pleasantly surprised! Keep up the great work! All that said I was wondering if you could look into adding scheduling function for sunrise and sunset? That would be great since daylight times change so much seasonally and with DST and all, this is a function my previous security/automation system (iris by Lowe’s) has but since Lowe’s is shutting the iris platform down the end of the month I’ve switched to three other systems to replace it. Thanks for your help! Have a great day! God Bless!

Surprisingly resilient and simple!. My home network contains so many devices that no router made can allow them all to connect at once. I have to have 3 routers using double NAT on each to keep everything online. Many of the cheaper IoT devices have to be regularly unplugged and plugged back in to maintain functionality/connectivity. The Geeni system, for being one of the cheaper lines, somehow is one of the most reliable of all the different manufacturers and brands that I have interlinked. Stays connected better even than the Belkin and iHome products. [Update: Somehow just realized I was writing a review for the app not the camera...I have 2 White scale bulbs, 2 smart outlets, and one of their cameras. Also, I have a different manufacturer of smart camera in every room, including 2 in the hallway (one at each end) and 2 outside) - explicitly TO test them against and with each other and demo differences and compatibilities to potential smarthome builders. Review applies to all 5 devices that use this app as well as the app itself. ]

There is NO support at all. Totally FAKE support ticket system.. Recently discovered why their prices are low. It’s because their “support” is non existent. If there is any issue with a product they simply reply with a canned response which reads they are “very concerned” and that we as users can simply reply to the email for further help(even though all relevant info was already provided). Makes it obvious that no one actually read our request. However that canned reply is the only/final response from them as a means resolution. Obviously it’s frustrating to realize we are completely on our own if the product does not do what’s advertised or if it fails altogether. In our case their first version water leak sensor does not stay connected to wifi. It requires a re-pairing of the device each time it fails.. We certainly hoped this company was reasonable and decent/fair especially after Lowe’s screwed us in a similar manner(for thousands of dollars). But sadly they are just another terrible company relying on mediocre built products at best. If and when they choose to vanish(as Lowe’s smart home did also) we will obviously be left with cheap plastic useless devices from China. Thanks Geeni!! You’re the best

Awsome. These cameras are awsome I like geeni the best outta all my cams..geeni is the only cam that can detect paranormal activity and record video and pics of it too..I’ve used every brand cam ever made and geeni is the only cam that I’ve ever had that could detect and record footage of paranormal activity..it’s better than my nest cam and my ring cam..the stuff it detects will blow your mind so much,u have no choice but to believe the paranormal activity it detects is real..there’s no other explanation for wat it could be and there’s noway that the pics and video footage it records of the crazy activity is not real..all of the paranormal activity it detects is totally real there’s no other explanation so save yourself a lot of grief and just except the facts..we can’t explain what they are or where they come from or how the cam detects them..be thankful !!! its not everyday that u can see unearthly things such as these so if u r one of tha lucky people that has a geeni and can detect the paranormal activity u better enjoy it and take as much footage as u can of it..once the intitiys are aware of u watching them and taking footage of them they will disappear and go undected

Overall Mercury Review. The company has given the consumer a variety of options within their product selection for an extremely reasonable price. I have given a rating of 5 for the simple fact that I can simply “plug and play” in a sense, there is no frustrating hub to have to set up and hide away(embarrassing). No matter where I am I can simply control every single device synched up to the Geeni App. I have not had any trouble with any of the products I have purchased, except for one time and it was due to weather and network failure but that is expected of nearly all technology and of course storm passed and products connected quick and efficiently. I can truly say that they offer us products at an affordable price and with actual quality. The Geeni App is a simplistic program that runs very smoothly and is not going to drain your battery. Overall the App and products are promising, I always recommend their products and talk highly of the overall experience I have had with Mercury. Thank you and I hope this review has helped.

Love my cameras!. So we bought three new cameras for our house recently. They were really cheap maybe $20/$25 apiece and I expected themTo not be that great I didn’t expect the picture to be very clear or to be able to see the cameras at night do you always hear that saying you get what you pay for...Well in this case that is not true I got a lot more than what I paid for! I could not be happier with these cameras,they were very easy to hook up and I installed the app and within minutes I was looking at all the rooms I had placed the cameras in. What surprised me the most was how clear the picture was and the colors were bright!I am pretty sure the picture was in HD as well. I love the fact that it has the motion detector and sound attacked her and the one thing I was also very happy with was the wide angled view I can see the whole room!I was constantly having that problem in my kids playroom which is a very big room I could not find a camera that would be able to view the whole entire room. It would normally only do half of the room and I would have to buy two camerasJust to be able to see the entire room. Butbnot with the cameras!I can see the whole entire room and clear as day I couldn’t be happier!I actually recommended these cameras to my sister who also went and purchased a few of them and she is also very happy with them as well! I would definitely recommend these cameras especially for the price you can’t beat it!

Cute, Good tech. I chose this monitor because it had all the (simple) tech features I wanted and I liked the look of it compared to a lot of other monitors out there. We wall mounted it and I am happy with the radius of movement the head swerves and zoom in feature. I like I can look in from afar (like when I am at work). I am a bit creeped out though when Dad happens to be looking in (because he got a notification there is sound or movement in the room) and he can move the camera or talk through the camera/camera app. On the other hand, this is a great feature and capability! I wish there was a way to see either on the camera or an app notification that the other parent (or whoever has the password to the app) is looking in. The video stream in encrypted and I trust this. I do wish there was a feature to block viewing or shield the camera just for an added peace of mind so even if someone tried to look in while I am breastfeeding, they will see black. (Just ideas Geeni!). Only works on 4G network according to the instructions, though no problems. Oh, I also had to buy a longer cord to mount it where I wanted and it has to be plugged in all the time to (a very small expense). Again: cute cute and fits into the nursery! Works just as I need it to.

Very pleased with App & Cameras.. I’ve had three cameras now for almost a year. Paid $20 each at Walmart and they have worked as described 94% of the time. Exception being while attempting to access from a weak or less than 4g signal. Motion detection, night time display, sound and intercom works well. Been a great comfort checking on pets and monitoring access by others while on vacation or away. I put the max Mini-SD card (32GB) in each one and reformat them before leaving or just when they get full. I can snap pictures from the video for viewing later or save the video complete with sound. I can talk to the dog while away or the wife if she’s not getting her phone. When all other camera systems were $150+ I got this one for less than $65... and purchased the cameras individually over a three week period. Occasionally a power outage will disable the cameras due to the lag time with the WiFi, but easily fixed by turning them off and back on again. A GREAT VALUE FOR THEIR INTENDED PURPOSE.

Love geeni’s app and products! Just one disappointing thing.. I’ve been buying geeni lights for years. I have never been disappointed with the products or service. There is just one thing that disappoints me. The app is really good connecting to the lights and responding to it. Just the “Smart Scene” part is poorly made. For example, I have a smart bulb and I want it to change blue at, let’s say 7:00 AM. First off, there is no option in “smart scenes” where you could change the bulb to color mode. Secondly, even if there was, there isn’t an option to change the light to a specific color. (I know this because it’s what the light strips do.) I think that is the only downfall to this app. If it wasn’t for that, It would be 5 stars for sure. Other then that, I am very satisfied with all the lights that I have bought. Hope the developers could fix this issue.

Don’t waste your time or money on this P.O.S.!!!. What should be a live view is instead a black screen that only says “constructing encryption channel” and never ending loading symbol. After calling customer support I learned that the only troubleshooting technique/idea they have is to uninstall and then reinstall the app on your phone and try again. They were less than useless to put it nicely. (Update). After reading the developers response to my review I am even more disappointed with this company, the developers and the WiFi camera I purchased from them. I find it interesting that they have the time to respond to every comment made here in the AppStore yet I am still waiting for them to respond to the 2 different claims I’ve filed through the app. Additionally, no response to the two different ph calls I’ve made to them requesting help and my mother has also contacted them for support on 2 occasions with no response to either of those. We have asked for help 6 times and have yet to hear back from them. The only attempt they have made at communication is their response to this AppStore review.

Overall good camera for the value. Nice little camera, has high definition and night vision as well which is the main reason I bought it. Only thing that was annoying to me is the options to record. In order to have continuous uninterrupted recording, you have to keep your phone on and stay in the app itself in record mode. Will take a SD card, but only records to the maximum amount of data and then dumps it afterwards. Still haven’t found out how to actually keep recordings on the SD card itself. Has a speaker capability which is nice but almost always cuts out and you can’t hear it at times when speaking. Also, there’s constant feedback/crackling in the audio which is annoying when I’m trying to listen in on random sounds in our room. For a $40 camera, this is fine for us, but if you’re looking for a high-security camera that has beneficial and user-friendly features I’d probably look elsewhere.

Mal voyants déçu. J’utilise Cette application depuis quelques mois avec voice over de apple. Ça fonctionnais quand même asser bien. Mais depuis la dernière mise a jour je ne peux plus régler la luminosité de mon ampoule. Beaucoup de bouton étaient nommés par VoiceOver mais maintenant VoiceOver dit « bouton » plutôt que de dire a quoi il sert. Par exemple « bouton meteo » ou bouton »brightness » En esperant une amelioration tres bientôt

Bug. Svp ... j aimerais bien que l appli soi a jour car j ai un Iphone avec ios 13 et je n arrive pas a me brancher sur une cam ... dommage si j arrive pas a me brancher je vais retourner la camera au magasin

What happened?. Was working beautifully but the cameras no longer are detecting motion. We have multiple cameras and they all stopped sending alerts and motion detection at the same time.

password. updated the app. forgot my password. now cannot open the app. app said it sent a verification code to my email, and it did not!

I am 15 and you just wasted my only income on this bs. The smart lights won’t connect no matter what update like fix your problem or comp those who got you busted stuff

Difficult to Connect. I’ve never had this many issues trying to connect a smart bulb. i’m bored of trying different things, this is going back to the store. tried again, got it connected. it worked for about a minute. adjusted brightness, and to try a different colour and now i can’t get it to work at all. great, that was worth the effort of trying again

Connect to Wi-Fi. Under iOS 13 the app doesn’t find the Wi-Fi that the phone is connected to when adding a new smart plug. I managed to connect the plug through an iOS device with iOS 12. This App needs an update. Otherwise no issues whatsoever. Love the products.

Does not work. You have to have an iPhone 8 or better and I’m not buying an iPhone just to get the silly app when it doesn’t even work. It’s a waste of money and waste of time I’ve been sitting here for four hours trying to get this done. I don’t recommend this app it is a waste of money waste of time there’s no way to connect to the Internet and then there’s no instructions of how to use this. Do not get this app!!!

Waste. Just spent 50$ on led strips and it won’t connect thanks

Poor hardware build. Products are unreliable. Very poor customer care. Avoid any mercury and geeni products.

can’t connect to wifi, ios problem?. i have been trying to get the lights to connect to my wifi for the past two hours thinking something was wrong with my router, but turns out everything is fine. i finally decided to read through some of these reviews & they all seem to have the same issue as me; either it’s not connecting to their wifi or their IOS software is 13+ making it “too advanced” for this app. please fix this asap because i have been looking forward to these for a long time now, & it would’ve been a waste of money if this app doesn’t update.

Offline. The cameras frequently go offline and need to be reset. Tough to do when you are monitoring from away. Don’t bother buying these products. Spend a little more and get something reliable.

Cant connect my lights. I bought the Smart Wifi LED Strip and it won’t connect to my internet, you guys need to change how this app scans for WIFI bc I use a username and password to connect to my wifi and the app only asks for a password so Everytime o try to connect it gives me error...

Lacking visible security on the user end. I’ve not found anyway to secure the device with a security pin or password. Must rely 100% on the manufacture to secure it for me. As a system administrator, I’ve always told my users if a device accesses the internet directly it should be secured with at least a password or a security pin. As well all the security experts out there say the same thing. Since I have to trust Geeni to secure the device this gives a single point of failure. Due to this I do not recommend these products

Ne fonctionne pas. Ne fonctionne pas avec hélix de Vidéotron

Garbage. Bought the water and flood sensor. Must have tried to connect it to my iPhone XS 20 times. When it wont connect via Bluetooth It gets stuck on the AP connect every time. Uninstalled, reinstalled. Nothing works.Ugh. going back.

Buggy app. Was really happy with my smart plug so i bought a second. Now I can’t link it to my phone because the app says my phone isn’t connected to my Wifi network (even though it is). Very frustrating please update the app and fix this issue.

Even 1 star is too many. If I could give less I would. Don’t waste your time or money.

Well that didnt last long. Used the service with a smart plug for not even a day. Damn thing unlinked from my google home and wont reconnect.

Hacked!. Checked my alert notifications after not using the App for a while. Found that another device had immediately logged into my account after I had set it up. Scary that someone has been looking into my home without my knowledge. Disappointed

Hate / Like these products / App. These products are great, but needs many fixes. Be prepared to spend 5/10 minutes per day deleting the notifications. There is no way to delete all notifications at once. You can only delete a few at a time. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 No customer support in the app. You can not contact the company to ask questions. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 Kills my iPhone battery a couple times a day since I’ve installed. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 The admin is supposed to have full control of the settings. But... yet the rest of us on sharing this app can change the admins settings. 🤷🏻‍♀️👎🏽🤷🏻‍♀️ But.... Like how easy the set up is 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Like the price point 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Like the concept 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Great wifi connection. Pleeeeeeease fix these issues and your item would be amazing!

This sucks. I think it’s stupid you have to have a 2.4Ghz and not higher

Another Account based app.. I was just starting to like this device until it started asking me to register by email/google and then I lost all my settings. Thanks.

Missing widget. Loved the app till the recent update that removed the widget. I exclusively used it daily now it 10x harder. Very disappointed.

a joke. Trued to connect it to LED strip lights and it couldn’t. No matter what I tried, it wouldn’t connect. Had to return the lights because they couldn’t even work without the app🙄.

Update sucks.. Worked perfectly fine. Once I installed the latest update I can’t get access to my outlet timers unless I start a google account. Like I just want to turn on some damn lights. And now I have to start a google account.

Not connecting. I have multiple cameras I got two new ones and my app updated and now I can no longer connect because they are only compatible with 2.4 and not 5gh... super disappointing

Can’t connect to wifi ios13. Doesn’t recognize the 2.4 wifi. Wasted money on my bulbs!. Can’t connect to wifi. App needs update!

Not connecting!. Very bad quality and could not connect it after 30 min of wasting time!

No music sync option. App states there’s an option to sync lights to music, there is no option in the scene like stated. Don’t false advertise or fix this issue.

Won’t connect!. Very disappointed. I just bought the colour changing lightbulb today and the ap mode won’t connect to my internet! I tried looking up how to do it, even reading the instructions but didn’t help.

Random and unstable. I have 30 devices spread over 3 separate locations. Out of the blue, all my Geeni cameras stopped streaming. Geeni smart doorbell randomly drops wifi for hours or days at a time, and just as randomly reconnects — this happens very, very frequently. Whole “system” is not reliable, predictable or stable. I really want this system to work — I’m fairly invested in it. But unless Merkury/Geeni technicians can improve products and/or app, it’s a non-starter and I will be forced to install a different system.

Must register an account. Apparently now to use the led light you have to create an account so they can use your personal information. I shouldn't have to make an account for having led light in my bedroom. I will be throwing this in the garage.

WIDGET!. For the most part it does the job, but wow the app needs a widget for iPhone like Globe where you can go from your lock screen to turn on your lights or smart plugs. Please fix this otherwise I’ll be switching completely to Globe because it’s way more practical...

App crashes. I got two cameras for Christmas and they work well enough, but the app leaves much to be desired. Every time I turn on the motion detection setting, the whole app crashes after registering that motion detection is on. When I reboot the app, I am unable to open the camera or the settings without the app crashing. I have to turn off the motion sensor from quick actions before I can open the camera in the app.

Update now. Just update the freaking app and we’ll all be happy. IOS 12 doesn’t work even with IOS 13. It’s so problematic and it didn’t even set up properly, please write back

NUL, compagnie fermer. Fermé, plus de support, server fermé, tous les produits sont en liquidation. Bon pour les vidanges, même les vidanges en veulent pas ils ont pas ramassé mon sac!!!

Not working. Please update I cant re connect my Geenies. I did everything but it just wont connect. It might be the software. The product was excellent. Thank you.

Only SILENT Notifications? DO NOT PURCHASE THESE PRODUCTS!!!. You cannot change the notifications to make noise! Totally useless!

Good while it lasted. Got a new phone a had to disconnect my smart link from my google home, very disappointed I’ve tried multiple times to reconnect, still nothing has worked. Please fix this issue.

Crap crap garbage. Crap

Bad. When I cut a piece of the light That piece stopped working and I read everything and they said that there cuttable and it’s tearing my walls A part

App support file 404 not there. So you state that it should Lise to music & there isn’t any music mode in the scene mode. & it’s up to date , so any good explanation for me ?

Dont buy. I bought two light bulbs for $25 EACH and they don't even work properly. Waste of time and money. I've only had them for one day and 95% of the time they don't even work. I have never made a review, or a bad review at that, but this product is so overwhelmingly disappointing that I would never want any one else to experience what I have. It is beyond infuriating to not even be able to turn on your lights, especially when I could have instead bought 2 light bulbs that were much cheaper and actually WORK. I consider myself a reasonable person, but this is ridiculous. I don't know if its just the app that needs updating, but based on how many other complaints I see on here, I suggest that you, Geeni, fix it asap.

i hate this so much. made me sign out and won’t log me back in there is nothing good about this app

Just me. This doesn’t work very well at all. Don’t waste your money!!

Caméras 1080p Excellent. J’ai 6 caméras Geeni et elles fonctionne très bien. Aucun problème de configuration. Détecteur de mouvements parfait. Rapport qualité/prix, difficile à battre.

Not good. Working fine but then I woke up and all of a sudden it wouldn’t pair with my google home app. Please help.

Dont buy it. The flood light comes on every 2 mins even in dead silent weather. Customer service is horrible they will not reply. I put the light in a garage where there is zero movement. Still takes a pic ever 1-2 mins and flood light comes on. Will be returning.

Awful. Bought the lights and smart plugs they worked fine for a few days then they stopped working. I unliked tried re linking keeps telling me error linking with google home. Geenie refuses to link with google home and I have logged out deleted the app reinstalled the app and logged back in still doesn’t link to google home. I have deleted devices and started fresh and when trying to link to google home I still get an error message and unable to link. I’m returning everything to the store getting my money back and going with a different brand yes mercury is affordable but not worth the headaches.

Very Happy With The Color Changing Bulbs!. About 8 months ago, I purchased two industrial “cage style” hanging lamps for my bedroom, that were said to be “dimmable”, along with a few dimmable light bulbs. Then I realized that a separate dimmer switch was needed, & since the bulbs in an open cage lamps were blaringly bright, I felt out of options. 🤨😬😓 It must have been an ad typo, since it had neglected to add, “needs purchase & installation of a hard-wired dimmer box”. I then spent months looking online, for a hand held dimmer switch that didn’t need to be hard wired, but the few types that were available had pretty bad to horrible reviews. I was cautiously optimistic when I found a two pack of color changing, multi-effect dimmable bulbs, at a lower price than I’d ever seen this type of bulbs available. Rather than needing a separate dimmer switch hard wired into the electricity, these work through the free “Greenies” app, that I set up on my iPhone. (Shipping was warp-speed as well). Not being at all tech savvy, it only took me a few hours to set it all up, but for “tech normal” people, I bet the set up would be much faster. These bulbs are my favorite purchase lately!

My Geeni App Thoughts.. I love the My Geeni App Thoughts. I love the convenience of the app itself, from being able to turn my lights on before walking into a dark house like I had to before, to setting up schedules/routines for my smart devices and adjusting the brightness of each bulb when/if I want & need too. The only negative thing I have to say about the app is that it has started to have some glitches in it or something. Recently, within the last 1-2 months I’d say..I have to open up the app, go out of it & close it out, then go back and reopen it for it to actually work & pull up my devices so I can turn them on/off, adjust them like I need, etc. I’d really like for this to be fixed because it’s very aggravating having the open it, see nothing but a black screen & have to close it, and then open it again before it’ll let me do anything.

Not happy with the quality. I have two lights and a camera through geeni and it’s always given me problems. I’ve had them for over a year. The lights will randomly disconnect and I have to set them up again. But here’s the thing, they constantly blink until you set them back up, they can’t just act as normal lights when they’re disconnected. And the camera quality is not very good. Anytime I try to use the talk button to say anything through the camera from the app, the camera crashes 9/10 times and I have to wait for it to come back up. Also the SD card was awful to install. I formatted it correctly and put it in and kept saying there was no SD card. Finally got it to work after taking it out and reinserting it several times. I’m very disappointed in the quality of this app and their products

Everything was fine until.... I was checking my message center to view all the motion detections, when I saw someone else’s camera, inside their home! I could see an elderly woman sitting on the couch and her dog was in a pounce position at the front door. Not only that, but you can communicate through the Geeni camera, well several times have I heard someone talking through the mic on the camera, when the only people who SHOULD have access were in that room. UPDATE: contacted costumer service they had me reset the camera, pretty much the same thing I did when I initially set it up. haven’t had any ones motion detector pop up on my messages, yet. I have not shared device with anyone at all, so sharing it was not an issue to begin with. I’m giving this a 4 star review because I do like the camera. I just want Geeni to look more into the privacy of these devices.

Great for cost. Bought at Walmart for $25 and I absolutely adore it so far. I read the reviews before downloading the app so I was weary about the setup process, but it was actually quite painful. Hardest thing I had to do was change my ghz on my phone from 5 to 2. I bought 2 cameras and setup both in less than 15 mins. I used this app on my iPhone 7plus and it is great; I even shared it with my hubby so he can view video stream as well. Process is really quick and simple. If all you need is something for precaution without all the bells and whistles this your product. It has great night vision, clear 2 way talk, and easy app usage. I’m thinking about buying another one as well. I will definitely recommend to family and friends.

App bricks iPhone since iOS 16. When going to alerts and attempting to view one of the live cameras from the thumbnail pic of one of the alerts, freezes (bricks) my iPhone where no screen touches or swipes respond and requires a hard reset which sometimes requires me to hold down the volume & power buttons for a full minute. This has been going on since the 16 iOS update and is completely unacceptable. Geeni: "I'm glad you raised this with us. When the app freezes, it is not establishing a connection to the Wi-Fi signal from the router. Kindly reinstall the Geeni app, clear the cache/data and set up the device. Please contact us at … The app is connecting to my WiFi just fine, I can watch live and see the clock running in the small thumbnail-video view. It’s only when I try to view it in the larger landscape mode that it bricks my iPhone. I had already deleted and reinstalled the app and cleared the cache but tried it again. I’m getting the same results of requiring a hard reset, no screen touch responses.

Very happy.. I’m writing this for the Geenie app. I’m disabled and have mobility issues. Last year I purchased a set of Merkur bulbs and this was the app used for them. I feel in love with being able turn off my lights from my phone when I was unsteady on my feet. Since the first 5 original bulbs I’ve added 2 Geenie air cleaners, 3 outlet extenders, two smart plugs, a indoor camera, a outdoor camera and a pair of door sensors. Everything connects easily and stays connected. The products and app have made my life easier. My only fix would be to make more devices compatible with Apple Watch. Be nice if my door sensor tripped and I saw it on my watch while my phone is stored in my backpack.

Definitely worth the purchase!. If security is important to you but you don’t have Hundred$ of dollar$ to spend, then these Geeni/Mercury/Brookstone products are a great choice. Everything I’ve used so far ( 2 different style Cameras. Outdoor Camera Outdoor/ Indoor Plug, Outlet Extender, 2 pack Plugs), has been easy to connect except for the outdoor/indoor green plug. The first one was easy peasy. I then bought three more of them and none of them will connect for some reason. It says to connect to smart power (Even though I thought it would be switch, since I connect it to lamps I switch on and off), but they’re not connecting at all.😟 The pictures are clear even in the dark! I like using the speaker to scare off the racoons while I am at work because they were tearing up my screens on my porch when I was trying to take care of a random cat that was hit by a car. I like that they have so many options for motion tracking, and sound alerts! And no I don’t work for the company, or even know anyone who works for the company. I am a very tired Hospice Nurse who appreciates the security of knowing my home 🏡 is being watched when I can’t do it my self. Safety and security is number one ☝🏼 (especially for women)!

Used to work great. I have used the smart lighting and plugs for a few years and besides a few connection issues never had a real complaint. Until I logged into the app the other day to find my entire account deleted and now I have to re-pair every single device I have (which is a lot of devices). Not only that but everything is still connected with Google somehow. I’m just going to upgrade to the GE smart bulbs instead because this is just ridiculous that my account would be deleted for no reason ugh Update: I’d like to apologize, I did not realize you could create an account with a phone number and when I used my phone number I was able to log back in. Thank you for the response and assistance.

Excellent Camera. I have been using Geeni now for almost 2 yrs at 2 different locations and 4 different devices. I have had no worries no complaints and Would Recommended the not the Geeni App however the extremely well priced cameras they have to offer. I’m Amazed on some of the footage I have gotten from these cameras and the Geeni service and I asked a friend who owns a computer/phone store. He was so impressed that I found something so precise for the $ it cost me to us the app and the cameras. It’s been money well spent!! So if you’re considering a security camera or just to have around the house for time to time Geeni and these cameras or devices are the ones for you especially when $ is tight and not looking to spend a arm and a leg. Kudos to the Developers and Creators of this entire Venue of devices and apps.

I love them BUT!!. I have 2 cameras 1 is in my 3 month olds room and the other one is in my 5 year olds room. I keep the app on all night long so I can hear and see my 3 month old when he is ready for a bottle. I love these cameras but the only thing I don’t like is the app freezes throughout the night and idk when he cries or not it can happen at any time throughout the night. When I wake up I have to restart the app. One night I woke up and my app was frozen so it showed him asleep till I restarted it and he was actually crying and probably was for a good minute without me knowing cause I didn’t hear him. It showed the app frozed at 1:30am and it was 3:45am when I woke up and had to restart it this happens quite a bit. Every night it freezes just at different times in the night and ill wake up and have to restart the app hoping he is still sleeping and not crying. Please if u can fix this issue. I don’t want to have to get different cameras that uses a different app.

Good app, good device, just one thing needs improvement. The only thing that I would like to see added/improved upon is this. I wish that the playback feature from recorded video on the SD card would allow you to scroll through frames. It’s hard to detect movement that wasn’t caught by the motion trigger by playing back. You have to select a time frame, and then the frame on the screen changes. It would be perfect if you could scroll through each frame (like videos on iphones). I really hope that you can add this feature as I am considering buying some of your higher end models. Otherwise, the app is very easy to use and feature full, and I haven’t discovered any other issue thus far. Thank you! Would recommend to anyone.

Geeni Apple Watch widget doesn’t work anymore. The Geeni Widget for the Apple Watch used to work fine until the most recent iPhone update. Now the widget appears on the Apple Watch, then disappears. Geeni support asked me send a screenshot and suggested uninstalling and reinstalling the Geeni iPhone app. I sent the screenshot and uninstalled and reinstalled the app over 10 times. The widget reappears on the Apple Watch briefly, then vanishes again. Geeni support insists its iPhone app works fine. I told them — again — the problem is with the Apple Watch widget. They suggested uninstalling and reinstalling the iPhone app. This is like Groundhog Day. If you don’t care about using Geeni with the Apple Watch, the iPhone app itself is ok. But if you were accustomed to using the Geeni Apple Watch widget, forget about it. And if you think contacting Geeni support will be of any help, forget about that, too. By the way, Apple Support says for the Geeni widget to work on the iPhone, Geeni needs to update its app to be compatible with the current iPhone version.

Scenes does not work. Update: Tech support is clueless, my issue has not yet been resolved, they have asked me to update to version 1.4 on my ios device. I have had this all along. This version crashes when i try to set an automation schedule. Stop sending emails after prolonged times without the issue being resolved. Very very disappointed in myself for investing time and money in your product. Update: After rating it poorly i received an email asking to upgrade to 1.6, Well this update is not in the app store and the app itself keeps crashing. So yes this has been a painful experience because of it my automation at home DOES NOT WORK As not yet resolved App keeps crashing when trying to create new scene

Very satisfied. I wish I got this sooner! I had 7/8 of me and my bfs tires slashed 2 nights ago and didn’t see it coming . The next night there was a rock through my bfs back window . This is my first night having this camera and I’ve been able to get alerts if there is motion/noise . It picks up easy but it’s adjustable and I live in an apartment complex in town . It has sound, also you can talk through it if you’re lucky enough to catch someone in the act . I’m hoping this will stop whoever is doing the vandalizing , if not, I’m sure it will catch who it is . I’ve been practicing play backs so I’m ready to go . Very affordable for the tight situation I’m in considering all the damage I’m having to pay to fix .

Mmm ok I guess!!. Definitely not something I like to brag about. But I got this to keep an eye on things when I moved into a multiple family home. Everything seems to be working great I just hate the fact that you have to have your new people in your family add an account every time you want to give them access to be able to use the app. Very annoying I would rather be able to just invite them then download the app and make their own or enter my password. However I do like the fact that you can add multiple devices to multiple rooms which makes it very handy but still at times it’s very annoying the fact that you have to go in and make sure you add each appliance to each room when you want to group them together I gave it to stars because I have had a hard time trying to figure out how to go about sending people request to have them enter my family and have access other than that I guess it’s OK.

disappointed. LED lights are becoming very popular, so ofcourse, I bought some. I didn’t realize I bought the ones without the remote, but I figured it’d be alright. I payed 20 dollars for a 6 foot strip, which is completely fine. The problem is the connection between the phone and the lights. It’s absolutely awful. Every time I open the app the “device is offline” .. even when my phone is connected to wifi. I have very good network/service and my connection isn’t the problem. But the lights NEVER stay connected for longer than 5 minutes . As soon as I leave the app they disconnect, and to get them to reconnect (for example if i want to adjust the brightness) I have delete the device, get up, hold the button on the little box down, and wait for my phone to get to 100% to reconnect all over again and then I can finally adjust the lights, but as soon as I leave the app it starts all over again. Very disappointed, definitely returning these if i continue to have this problem .

App issues. There are some issues with the app since the update. First the app is not calibrated to where when you hit something turn something on it turns something different off or on. So then I had to hit it again then it will turn on or off whatever I wanted to it to do. As for the shop under the app for some odd reason when you go to shop and hit shop now and then you go into whatever you want to get more information or add it to the cart it says unable to load and then you try to refresh it it won’t refresh it and then he goes to unable to connect again after you refresh it so I’m not exactly sure what is going on with that so I gave up on that. The app is a little bit more different than it used to be on the old way before the update so now I have to use my other devices to control the devices.

Leaves a lot to be desired. At a basic level, the app is okay. It has some strange quirks but overall it works. The problem is when you try to do anything beyond motion alerts and just checking in on the stream. I first tried an micro SD card in the camera we bought but it wouldn’t take any I tried. They were higher end cards, not anything cheap. After trying to trouble shoot that and not being able to, I subscribed to the cloud storage offered as an additional service. I cancelled it almost immediately because while it does record and store on the cloud, the recordings are inaccessible once stored. It will just sit and load forever and never come up. I’ve tried troubleshooting this issue too and cannot find a solution. The Merkury camera itself is good but this app has convinced me to just spend more money on something with a more developed app.

Widgets are gone?!!!. UPDATE: I see the Developer’s response that they’re already working on a fix for the missing widgets so I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt and will bump up my rating. I appreciate their willingness to address a big mishap quickly and we really enjoy the app. Here’s hoping the fix is pushed out very quickly! 😎 I use this app daily, usually several times/day. The first problem we ran into was the app itself crossing devices, i.e. turn on the living room lap at 4:30AM and my wife isn’t happy because the bedroom light turned on full blast. So we started using the widget since it seemed to give us better (and more reliable) control over the right devices. Now the widget has disappeared and I’m definitely not happy. Replace the widget and maybe I’ll rethink my rating. As it is, I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone right now. 😡😡😡😡😡😡

How dare them!. So I’m out of town and cannot use my cameras because they’re forcing an update on their app and will not let me reschedule it or cancel or anything so I can see nothing that is going on at my house on any of the 5 cameras that I have. I also paid for faster internet so these cameras would work better and now that’s a waste also. The update says my device cannot be used during the update and has to be plugged into power. What???? I use this device for work and because of your thoughtlessness I suddenly cannot use what I paid for??? They took my money for cameras and now I without warning I cannot use them when Im gone out if town? So very rude and inconsiderate. I feel like thieves have stolen my cameras....they’re useless now. I did try to allow the update for 3-4 hours and it never finished. This is totally unacceptable and unbelievable bad business. Will never buy another product from this so called company. I want all of my money back for the Geeni products that are now just collecting dust. Another example of you get what you pay for.

Option to change Wifi network. This is a great app that works, most of the time. However, we just got a new internet service, and although my devices would connect automatically when I pulled the app up while connected to said network (after powering them off and back on), once I left my house, all of the devices disconnected and did not stay connected to the new network, leaving my anole without her heat lamp. If there was a way to easily ensure that the devices stay connected to the new network, without having to fully delete the device and start over with every single one, that would be a huge help. Maybe there is a way, but I was unable to see any network settings for any of the devices, even when I was right next to them.

Sorry but it’s trash until they put a LOT of work into the app.. Absolutely trash. No one wants to spend $75 on lights for their house to turn around and not able to use them whenever you want because 90% of the time the app is unresponsive or completely crashes. This has happened to many times to count not just on my phone but on my husband’s phone as well. The fact that there hasn’t been an update in three months blows my mind for how many problems I’ve dealt with since buying my light strips, and the fact that the other reviews that complained about issues with the app the developers only responded was in other words “your WiFi isn’t strong enough” really?? Come one now I get it’s a free app but you guys make bank off of people buying your products the least you could do is make sure the remote control apps for the products actually work.

Buggy and a bit inconvenient. Initially the app ran fine for me. There is an occasional bug when toggling power on one device, it will turn on/off another device instead. This is the most frequent issue I have, and it has become more prevalent as time has gone on. There has also been a change to the UI for a group of light bulbs in the same room. I used to be able to change the brightness of the group easily and with visible percentages, it’s now a two step process and a guessing game on what percentage the bulbs are at. Each individual bulb has the old interface, but the group has become much more inconvenient. Customer service was also extremely underwhelming, I received two email, which did not address my issues, I have yet to receive any follow up after sending two further emails. Overall, the devices function well, the app is the issue.

Mr Naz. Well I’ve been having My Cameras For about 3 years now !! Started out with just 1 just to test the waters if you know what I mean 🥴😂, But Just to see if the works well & was worth the buy!! Well 3 years later I have them Completely around the Home Even Outside in Covered Areas !! The view is Magnificent like for the price of these little Cameras and tbh it don’t really Use as much Wifi data … Thank god for Unlimited data 😂😂No just kidding it don’t use much data at all !! Only Problem is , I wish you didn’t have to Plug them ..Why couldn’t have been solar or battery operated..I Guess If your smart you’ll find a way to hide them wires …..Soooo if your looking for a cheap Investment that want cut your Pockets Deep This is the Product for you !! Enjoy

Great Products, App needs improvement. I absolutely love all of my Geeni products. For their price they are amazing and it’s nice to be able to afford smart home products on a budget. I do wish that Geeni would at least make a Mac app or an online portal to view and control devices and cameras. I would love to view my cameras while working. Furthermore I would love a more simple automation interface. I found it difficult to set up my indoor cameras to only record when someone opened the door. I got a camera for my room because my roommate was snooping around but I don’t need a constant recording. I eventually got everything set up after trial and error but it could be much easier to have the option to link sensors and cameras.

Phenomenal. Since I live in a roughly 100 year old house with nothing resembling today's smart home technology, I was of course, skeptical of the "smart wifi LED bulb". I am a technology enthusiast, though; so when I saw these bulbs, I could not resist buying one to try out. I hit a couple of hiccups while setting up the bulb to connect to wifi, but finally after a few minutes, I succeeded. Now mind you, my smart bulb is in a ceiling fan that dates back to the '80s! I was, however; so far from disappointed. The bulb, (along with the Geeni app, of course), works as perfectly as described and I couldn't be happier. 🙂 I fully intend to purchase more bulbs for my house. If you're a fan of dimmer bulbs and technology, run...don't walk...out and buy yourself some 'Merkury Innovations - Smart Wifi LED Bulbs' today!!!

Updates render cameras useless. Camera becomes useless after update! Unable to reset when away! Isn’t that the idea of having a camera to video while you are away?! How can I fix the connection if I’m out of state?! When the camera updates the app requires to reinstall and extremely inconvenient when traveling and unable to pair devices. Camera becomes useless and end up without any recording! Need to fix! Happens all the time!! Cannot go all summer without video! Other than that frustration, the camera is amazing for $20! Originally easy to install and works great! Great video and sound quality with excellent night mode! Love everything about the camera except the updates!

Safe Home. All I can say is that we purchased the cameras when we lived in our old apartment due to some younger guys on the top floor having traffic in and out all times of the night. It was after we had the Cops knocking on our door asking if we had seen anyone or anything out the normal that evening. Of course we had not see anything and we was informed the neighbors door had been kicked in and money and guns stolen, they found the owns dogs throat cut. We started with one. Inside cameras. Now we have 6 inside cameras and 3 outside cameras. The feeling of being able to check on your home and family anytime of the day or night is a peace that’s hard to be bought. Our camera system is affordable and work’s excellent!!! A musty for convenient, comfort & affordable! Must have!

Love my Merkury products. Love all my Merkury products. They’re all easy to use and work with google home. The only reason I deducted 1 star is because there is no access control even though it looks like the feature should be there it’s not. I don’t want everyone in my home to be able to access my cameras and see the state of my door/window sensors and certain lights/plugs. The only option for access control is to create a 2nd home but certain devices like door/window sensors will only sync to the first home. Submitted feedback but was sent a canned message that mirrors the instructions sent with the products. I have about 20 of these products in my house so I’m very well versed in connecting them I need access control!!!

Cheapest smart home technology you can get. I started off with a single color changing light bulb. It worked great, although could be a little brighter. I then upgraded and got two more bulbs. And then I got a smart plug. And then I got the doorbell with the camera. Now I’m fully integrated into the ecosystem and it works seamlessly. I bought a Ring doorbell and returned it because this one is so much better (and doesn’t require a subscription). And it works on the same app as my bulbs. My favorite part is that there’s a widget so I can easily access all my devices without having to open the app. Alexa integration is perfect. My only complaint is that sometimes the light bulbs lose connection but this is mainly because I consistently turn the lights off through the switch.

Great app, and great products so far. Originally I gave this three stars because I was not real thrilled with the subscription model being on a per device basis. However, that’s really just because I was ignorant and didn’t realize the Look cameras accept micro SD cards, so you really don’t even have to have cloud storage anyway. So I am updating/changing this review. I have a few of the smart devices and really do like them, and the app is pretty good too as far as functionality. Would be extra nice if it was compatible with Apple’s Home deal but I imagine that costs a fair bit of money to make happen. Even so, it all works well and I hope the company keeps putting out great products

Geenie Real Value, Good as Ring or Nest for 1/2 to 1/3 the Cost. We had a Nest video doorbell on our previous house. It worked great; my wife and I were able to monitor all the real estate agents and potential buyers to know when we could return home after showings. Nest was wired. I bought a Geenie wireless doorbell for our new home at Batteries Plus for 1/3 the cost of the Nest unit. It works the same way, sending us notifications on our mobile devices, sounds great, and gives a good quality image. I would have given it 5 stars except for it needs monthly recharging. Easy to recharge, though, with a 300mA mobile charging device. Installed a 128GB SanDisk microSD to record and play back. Power went out when ZETA passed and Geenie worked the whole time audibly alerting us when power went off and came back on, giving us video of the storm the entire time. I recommend it to anyone shopping for a video doorbell.

Terrible Set up process. The set up process for their smart lights is the most inconsistent process I think I have ever experienced. I honestly believe that in the time that I have spent trying to reconnect my smart lights after changing the WiFi password I could have found a vaccine for COVID-19. Also, which engineer at geeni had the bright idea of makin the lights flash repeatedly while in connection mode? Like did a fully competent team of engineers seriously sit down in a conference room and decide “yeah let’s make these lights repeatedly flash at full brightness for hours on end while they try and set them up”. I had these lights working just fine, until changing the wifi password and now after hours of trying to connect these things (with the newly changed password) they are now more disabled than me after thirsty Thursday with the boys? All complaints aside, once they are connected they are very nice lights.

Great, free, one issue. Cameras are great! Outdoor one is a little pricey but survived a wny winter! The play back creature lets you scroll back to midnight. You have to buy an SD mico card for each camera to do that if you don’t pay for “icloud” storage. Only issue i have is the cameras frequently , when play back is selected will say sd card needs formatting. So you have to format it and loose the footage on the card. I’ve never had a bad suituation where i depended on the footage thankfully. I’ve only ever checked teenage night time shenanigans or package delivery. But it would tick me off if we had a real issue where i needed the footage in an emergency and “the card needed formatting”. I can live with that for now. But that’s something the company could fix. other wise i’m cheap, and this is the best free option with great cameras , sound, talking through cameras and enlarging and zooming in.

Used to be a fan of Geenie. As the title says, I used to be a big fan of Geenie products. So much that the last count I had was up to 17 items. I had bulbs, sockets, diffuser, and was steadily adding more. Until the latest update! I purchased the floodlight/camera item, as well as two more sockets. I starts my normal process to add these new items and no matter what I did I could not get the app to connect to them. I tried the easy mode as well as the manual mode. Still nothing. So after a couple of hours resetting everything, and trying all I could, I called the tech support line. Well that was a complete waste!!! All they did was read the instructions to me, and then say the product is bad and to return it. What kind of support is that!? So me wanting to give another chance, I do just that. I return and get replacements. Guess what, still same issue! The only thing that changed was the new version of software. So it looks as if I will be replacing this brand with something a little more reliable. Signed Use to be loyal customer

Alright if you’re not trying to get fancy. From the beginning I had moderate expectations for the cheaper smart led lights. The lights themselves when they actually connect are great with a wide spectrum of colors to choose from. Though the colored lights are significant dimmer than the white light. The true issue arises when you try to set up the automation or tap-to-run. Because unless you want white light it doesn’t work no matter whether you select color or scene instead of white. So for example I set up a few lights to supplement as a plant light. First glance I was excited because you can have the activation dependent on the weather. However once I set it up though I clearly selected that I wanted it in color mode (I even made the last color I used on the lights the one I wanted to use) it would only turn on with white lights and I had to change it manually, and constantly do so because it reverts back to white. This doesn’t work at all because the goal was to give my plants the proper light to grow even when I’m not there. I also agree with the people that says it’s limiting to not be able set up your own scene. Technically you could be able to about it through an automation route, but I doubt if fails to work for simple setups that it would work for that. Eager to see if it changes in any future updates

Works great!. I have 4 of them in my house and they work great! It should be noted that with any Wi-Fi camera that people can hack into them and watch you so be mindful of where you put them. I have mine in the garage and facing out the windows of the house. When facing through a window the night vision should be turned off and just have a light outside because otherwise you just get a view of the cameras reflection in the window. The one in the garage has survived the -16 degree days we have had here in Minnesota and I am betting it will do fine in the hot garage in the summer. Going to experiment with having one in the chicken coop and being on a separate Wi-Fi network. So far they are absolutely awesome. Going to buy more just to have on hand.

Geeni works great most of the time.... Geeni works great most of the time, but sometimes it disconnects from my WiFi and it takes me about an hour before it works again. I have WiFi and data, but Geeni randomly disconnects as I said before, which made me super angry and annoyed. By the time it turns on, I’m super tired. I use it almost everyday; I don’t know why it disconnects. I turn off my WiFi and turn it back on and did all that, but it still flickers which creeps me out. It always scares me when it flickers because it has a horror movie feeling to it. I would really, really appreciate it if Geeni did something to fix this. My uncle installed it and he was just about to loose his mind. My phone is connected to one of two different WiFi’s, and Geeni is on one. I have a strong connection as it is very close by the router. I still enjoy it I’d just ask that it wouldn’t flicker super quickly as it has, I’ll say it again, a horror movie feeling.

Network issues. At first my cameras worked great for few weeks. Then went offline. I followed troubleshooting steps and removed and readied cameras. They worked for few more weeks then started going offline again. Everything came back then offline on its own. I removed devices again and traded problem solved for few more weeks. Now my wireless cameras work when I’m under the same roof. I leave location and the camera’s go offline. I return to location they are back online. I leave and cameras are offline again. My network is strong, I check my network remotely and have contacted my service provider who says no outage in my area and my service with internet is showing as active and no issues. 1 of 2 wireless cameras are about 5 feet from the network devices. You get what you pay for. Unhappy cheap customer.

Poor Performance. I’ve had my geeni cameras for about 2 year now and have added new ones along the way totaling 6 cameras. I hoped that the performance would improve with updates and with an addition of an extender on my network but unfortunately it has not. My cameras are constantly going offline for no reason while everything else continues to work properly on my network. I subscribed to the cloud service on all my devices and have been very disappointed in cloud service all together. It shows recordings of events and when I click to watch it skips multiple event recordings and will not play them. When the cameras actually decide to work the sound cuts off on most of the video footage. My cameras skip several times on things I need to see. It is just all around either a bad app or cheap cameras probably both combined but either way I wouldn’t recommend either to anyone if they are looking for high quality video footage and an app that works correctly.

No contract just internet conection. I have bought other security cameras at Walmart and they work fine , but after one month you have to get a contract and i didn't like that. With this surveillance camera all you have to do is connected to your internet connection and thats it. I really loved it. I now have two cameras and planning on buying more so i can set up on different places on my house just because where i live its not a safe zone. I tell my friends they should buy this camera and i always show them how great it is and for the price its worth it. I am very very happy with this camera. Though i wish the cable to connect it was a little longer because its way to short and for that i always have to use an extention cord and glue it on the was for support. But the rest works amazing!

Garbage App—You’ve Been Warned. Complete garbage app for Apple Watch. In the beginning it was extremely irritating because it would almost never load my light bulbs—only when I opened the app on my phone would it then show up on my watch. Then it began working flawlessly for about 3 weeks, and now it’s back to being a useless watch app—never works. Claims there are no devices added even when it pops up on my phone app just fine. It’s unbelievable how long people have been complaining about this app while nothing has been done about it. Better off going with a different company with a working app. Bluetooth lights also disconnect sporadically which means you’ll then need to start the lengthy process of reconnecting each bulb, which usually takes no less than 5 attempts to actually register. Extremely frustrating and tedious. Do better, developers. Fix this.

Would give 0 stars if possible!. Regardless of the cheap price for a smartbulb, this was a waste of time and money. You can submit a little note for customer support, but they'll never reach out to you with a reply! Have fun with the flashing it will do when it decides to randomly disconnect, and the rage you'll feel when the lightbulb continues strobe-lighting you when it refuses to connect for the 20th time. Worthless piece of junk. Constantly disconnects, always be afraid anytime you turn your light off that the second you try and turn it on, you'll have a 50/50 chance of dealing with it flashing on you and disconnecting. Tried reconnecting for about 30 minutes, just continuously strobe-lighting the entire time i tried. Wanted to crush it or throw it as far as possible, but really not even worth it. Buy another smart bulb brand and throw this one a finger for me whenever you see it please. :)

Easy Smart Home manager. I but a lot of smart power devices when I added solar panels. I love how easy it is to control my devices, lamps, power strip, outlets, with the Geeni app. The interface with Alexa / Echo works very well. The app is well thought out, with the ability to set a schedule, create groups of devices, and change lightbulb colors from the iPhone. The app ids also great for traveling or if you’re gone for the day (or longer) and want to control lights from your phone so you don’t walk into a dark house. Geeni provides stats on power use which is handy to work within a KHz limit with solar production. I do wish they would update the app so that you can re-order the list of devices. As I’ve purchased more devices, the primary list is in chronological order as added and I would like to group them in the list by room, and move the lamp I use most often to the top of the list.

App disappeared from watch. I've had the geeni app for about a year and everything was fine until here recently. For some unknown reason, the app has disappeared from my apple watch. It had been there the whole time because I had used my watch numerous times to turn on/off my lights, plugs, switches and other smart devices connected to the geeni app. It was quite convenient for me. But, just out of thin air it disappeared. I don't see anything from the developer with the updates that state it was removed from Apple watch. I don't even see the app on the watches app store. What happened? Guess I'm just going to delete the geeni app and go with another one I've found that works with my apple watch. If it was removed, why? You made it worse if it was removed and causing people to delete the app from all their devices. I'm hoping maybe it's just a bug or some easy fix. Bring it back to Apple watch please...

Geeni Sentry Smart Floodlight with camera. Did not have great expectations after looking at the one-star comments but have been very surprised at how well the device operates. Day and nite vision are sharp and clear. Auto/remote floodlight control is great. Audio is clear and crisp. Alert notifications are timely and accurate. Cloud storage is great and fun to review. I have never dropped or had buffered signal on 2G WiFi, within about 50’ of base. Have the optional microSD chip installed and get continuous recording even with WiFi off (retrievable when WiFi turned back on or with SD removal and placed in PC). Oh, as far as mounting/water issues go, I covered the wires with electrical tape making them waterproof and have been thru a few rain and windstorms with no problems...I’ve been pleasantly surprised so have ordered another device for a different area. Good/great product for the money.

Great functionality Features to be desired. So we bought some of the Mercury lights for Christmas and their working great and I love the color and everything along with them the only thing negative I have to say is to ask for a feature to control multiple lights via the rooms, to be able to change more then just on off in the schedule like I want my lights to turn on when my alarm goes off but I can’t set them to go to very bright so they can wake me up because it’s not a feature another feature I’d love to see is making the create a scene a little less tangled because it seems very hard to understand at the moment but again the hardware works amazing and the app you have works great however some QOL changes would be greatly appreciated Thank you

Works but doesn’t integrate. Was able to pair 3 out of 4 lights with my home network without any trouble (4th light won’t come on but could be the lamp, and working with the other 3 first)- brightens, and color control was easy and smooth via the app - the problem ai’m having is adding the devices to my home assistant - Google Home is unable to find the devices and therefore can’t control them - which was the primary reason I bought the lights in the first place (confirmed that they are on the same network, powered on, working in th Geeni app, Geeni app is on, . . . . ) - instructions show “screens-capture instructions” that don’t match any Geeni or Google Home screens (presume written for an earlier version of one or the other) - hope this gets resolved quickly otherwise will be forced to return these and go with another product Update: am now able to connect w/ Google Home, however occasionally drops one light and then reconnects later at random - having the same issue on my parents network at an alternate location.

Very close. The app overall works well and does what it is supposed to, although it has some limits. There is one issue that I would like to be fixed. When opening up a light from “My Home”, there is a full white background during the transition. This is really jarring, especially at night when trying to manage lights. Could this please be changed to a black transition background, or better yet eliminated, and use the same smooth transition that happens when returning to “My Home” from the light page. I would also love the ability to choose specific colors for individual smart scenes, and not rely on whatever color was already set. Finally, it would be great for the smart scenes to be customized by light state, instead of needing to add three actions to turn a light on a specific color with a specific brightness.
