Review: Incredible value for the money… with some caveats (UPDATED). - UPDATE 9/13/2022: After a day or two the camera stopped glitching when switching to night mode and now works as expected. Bumping the rating to 5 stars now. This is a really nice camera crippled by mediocre software. I wish Amcrest didn’t get rid of the web interface as their app has only very basic settings, so if you are going to use this camera with your NVR, you have to know some tricks. You need Amcrest SmartHome app for the initial setup, but it won’t let you adjust any of the advanced parameters, such as overlay settings or key frame interval, or any audio settings, etc. It is all usually available via the web interface, but it does not exist for this camera. Moreover, they don’t even support their web API that some other “smart home” cameras from Amcrest have. Fortunately, thanks to one of the reviewers here, there is a way to adjust the advanced settings, and that’s installing their free Surveillance Pro software on Windows. It gives you access to the settings that pretty much duplicate familiar web interface functionality and you can set up overlays, advanced streaming settings, night vision, etc. Another way to adjust some parameters (but not as many) is by using Onvif Device Manager application. Interesting enough, that was the only way I could make key frame interval setting to work - setting it via Surveillance Pro didn’t do anything. Speaking about night vision - that was the main reason I dinged one star. The light sensor is very glitchy, and if there is any background light left, it would keep switching between day and night mode. I tried to play with sensitivity and delays in Surveillance Pro and it helped to some extent, but I ended up setting a schedule when it forces night mode during certain hours. I use it as a baby monitor, so constant clicking is not something I’d want. Of course the only way to set advanced night vision settings is via Surveillance Pro application. None of my other Amcrest cameras behave this way. Initially I thought that it could be defective unit, but reading reviews and after buying the second one, it is obvious that it’s a problem with the firmware, most likely. Anyway, if you know how to access advanced settings, this camera offers an amazing value for the price. And there is really nothing else that comes close in this category - IP camera that doesn’t require cloud, that supports RTSP and Onvif, has WiFi, PT and has such a small footprint suitable for baby monitor. The closest competitor from that “other” brand is more expensive, more limited in functionality and more buggy (yes, I bought that one too and would be returning it and stick to Amcrest).
Review: Excellent Camera for In Home use and Pet Tracking - I have now used the camera for approximately 1 month. This is the second Amcrest camera I have that uses the Smarthome app. The other is an outdoor wifi camera. I also have several Amcrest camerasthat use the original AmcrestViewPro App. It would be nice to see all cameras consolidated into one app. Once I had this camera setup and running in the SmartHome app I was able to add it to my list of Cameras in the Pro app but it seems silly to have two apps for cameras from the same company. Setup was simple - I hardwired the camera into my network initially to complete the setup. It was quick to complete and I was able to see video right away. I tested it with motion tracking and human detection. Both of these work well however the screenshot for human detection frequently did not show the person if they only passed by quickly. One other issue I ran into is that once I removed the wired connection, the camera would not display in the SmartHome app for several hours but I was still able to access it in the Pro App. The problem resolved itself prior to me being able to contact support. I tested the camera while I was in home on the same network and while I was several thousand miles away while traveling for business. Video quality and connection speed was excellent in both scenarios and I had no issues controlling the camera. The camera works well both in daylight and full darkness. I tested the camera in a few different rooms in my home and it worked well in all locations. It appears there is a mount included in the box for this camera but nothing in the instructions about installing or using the mount. I do understand the use case for this camera would not frequently require a mount but it would be nice to include something in the packaging. I do not have a baby in the home so I was not able to test the baby monitor function fully.

## Features

- 1080P PAN, TILT, ZOOM WIFI CAMERA – Live streaming 1080p @30fps video. Remotely pan, tilt and zoom (PTZ) from the app or set it to auto-track and detect humans in AI mode. Built-in hardware based AI chipset with human detection function (does not rely on cloud). Records to microSD, Amcrest NVR, 3rd party software using RTSP, Blue Iris, and optional Amcrest Smart Home Cloud remote video storage. Extra-wide 93° viewing angle
- BABY MONITOR SOUND ALARM MODE, SHARING & ALEXA - Turn your Amcrest Smart Home camera into an adjustable VOX monitor to view and be notified based on adjustable sound thresholds (such as baby crying, or dog barking decibel levels). You can enable this mode directly from the live-view screen of the app. Works perfectly as a baby monitor or pet / dog camera and can be shared with multiple family members so everyone can have access to the live video and recordings. Works with Alexa.
- AI CHIPSET & HUMAN DETECTION – This is our most technologically advanced, smallest form factor and best low light 1080p WIFI camera yet. Unlike our competitors, our AI/human detection algo is built-in directly on the chipset (hardware ASIC) and thus doesn’t require a cloud access subscription to operate. The ASH21 features Smart Tracking allows the camera to track objects in motion. When enabled the camera will begin to automatically record and follow the object in motion.
- INTELLIGENT ALERTS, STORAGE OPTIONS – Receive motion alerts via email or push notification & instantly review recordings directly from your phone using the Amcrest Smart Home app. Human detection filtering reduces false alerts. Store your footage remotely on the Amcrest Smart Home Cloud or locally to a class 10 MicroSD card up to 256GB. Designed for use with the Amcrest Smart Home App. Also compatible with Amcrest NVRs and 3rd party software through SDK integration or RTSP. (Limited compatibility w/ Amcrest View Pro via RTSP only, not compatible w/ Amcrest Cloud).
- SEE IN THE DARK - SIMPLE, RELIABLE, SECURE – Night vision capability up to 33 feet in absolute darkness. WiFi products depend on the capability of your network. This camera is only compatible with 2.4GHz networks and does not work with 5Ghz Networks. MicroSD card, NVR, 3rd party recording and AI Human detection are always free forever and not cloud based.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Motion Tracking Camera
*by P***Y on August 2, 2021*

I am a big fan of Amcrest cameras and have started using them to help keep track of my house and cat when I am away. My setup at home is a combination of cameras inside and out that I connect together via a PVR system. As any pet owner knows, they never seem to sit where you expect them to be. Having a camera that can move around was a big plus for me. I wasn't sure how well the motion tracking would work, but it has been spot on for tracking my cat anytime she comes into the room and jumps onto the window or bed. The camera will immediately adjust to the movement and follow her around wherever she goes. When no movement is occurring long enough, the camera returns to its last manually adjusted direction. Setting up the camera was relatively easy once I understood that this connects via the Amcrest Smart Home app, NOT the Amcrest View Pro. You can use the Amcrest View Pro after you have completed setup in the Amcrest Smart Home app, but this is very important. That's what I get for skipping the directions. I also struggled initially with getting RTSP working with my camera so I could add to my PVR. Sadly there seems to be a firmware issue that another review mentioned that will block RTSP on wifi until you plug in the ethernet port. This will then disable again the next time the camera reboots, so the only reliable way to keep the protocol enabled is to connect wired. This is my biggest complaint as my other Amcrest camera works flawlessly without needing to be wired, so I hope Amcrest can fix this in a future firmware update. Motion and sound alerts work great as well, though they can be overwhelming at times. I unfortunately had to turn off the push notifications as this was too much for me. Would be great if a cool-down could be added so that you were not getting alerts as often. Picture quality is crisp, but make sure you up the resolution within the app. By default, you are not given the full 1080p quality or framerates. This was a minor fix as it was easy to find on the UI. Overall I would buy this again because the automatic motion tracking is what I needed the most and this works great.
