The Allcam WF01 is a WiFi video intercom/ doorbell system for smartphones and tablets. It can be easily managed by the free APP which connects up to 4 devices to the intercom simultaneously. Similarly, as many as 4 intercoms can be managed from a single phone or tablet! Ever forgotten your key and had to wait several hours in the cold for a locksmith? The WF01 WiFi door bell is your answer (requires an optional electric strike lock), simply enter the unlock PIN code in your smartphone, and voila the door opens! Even if you are away while you have important visitors like your children or old friends, you can still let them in and treat them with the warmth of your home. The WF01 video intercom is compatible with a wide range of DC power supply (5V - 16V), saving a lot of hassle if your existing system is DC-powered because the existing wiring can be used to power the new device. Furthermore, thanks to push release terminals, connecting the power to the video intercom is easy and fast. Push notifications are supported on both iOS and Android devices, and the intercom can be set up to send notifications on motion detection.

The APP is very easy and simple to set up, avoiding the awkward firewall and IP settings (unlike IP cameras)

It works OK, but it tells the caller that ...
Since the latest update, the phone doesn't ring when somebody comes to the door, so it is effectively useless. I have to notice a screen notification and then click on the alert. If the app is open and running, the phone still doesn't ring. Previous review: It works OK, but it tells the caller that they can leave a message and they can't. Also it doesn't always alert my phone when I'm not in the house.
