I let mine record 24 hrs.
Then set the human detection with text notification if I leave the property.

So if someone shows up you have to go through the whole 24 hrs to see who?

If you turn on the human detection. It will text you, then just look at that time slot. Never used the email notification.

I see only motion detection. Is the one for just humans, and one for animals?
Also it says my signal is weak and lower resolution. I don’t see that option. Or are they talking about the phone?

This is what I got when your looking at the live camera feed.
I hit the human stick figure, then it takes me to the next 2 screens after.

Back at the house for two days. I left the WiFi and camera on, pretty neat checking out the property from far away. Should get another to watch the cabin, I can see how you ended up with 5.
I had brought out an Sd card to put in, then promptly misplaced it. Bringing another tomorrow. The Spypoint trail cam is still going, so if an animal goes by it will still catch that.

Good to hear it's working out for you. 
I have no complaints really so far.

Camera day.. Brought an Sd card out and put in. Hit record a few times, put them in my phone pic file so I know that’s working. Still need to figure out all the Alert, Notification, time lapse settings.
I had grabbed the camera from down below to do this near the cabin. While here I tried a usb extension cable to try the camera outside. Wouldn’t come online like last week, they seem to be sensitive to usb wattage or something, even though volts checked out at 5. Last resort I wired in an old AC extension cord between the camera and usb male. That works, giving me 30’.
So right now I have it mounted on the deck rail, one camera getting the cabin front, the other 180 degrees downward to the main yard through the trees. The ground is too bright to see much, maybe I can improve with settings.

Hey Darz, I ordered another camera, can’t seem to get both my cabin and yard in one, too many trees. But then, my friend whose house is empty while he works all week, says he’s been wanting one too but the Bings everyone has are $100 plus whatever, so I gave him this one.
Anyway, I have the card in mine, human frame motion detection, notification, siren, push, email etc on but nothing when I walk by. Does it work on both cameras?

Maybe adjust the sensitivity or just try motion not human detection.

Did that and messed with everything again. Now by some wild reason it’s working. I go out there and sirens go off, lights flash, wife starts yelling.. here’s the dipsht himself checking it out.
So all these videos are on the card. I know I asked before, can they be erased one by one or just reformat?

Yes. You can delete them one at a time.
It's appears that it records in 5 minute clips.
Not always tho. But every day, if nothing big happened I hit select all, then delete them. About once a week I will clear the card with the format option.
Don't feel like bad about messing the settings up. I seem to be able to do that with all kinds of devices. Then try to figure out how to undo my adjustments. Lol
I don't use the tracking or the box around the human thingy. The footage is good enough that I can see a human without the box.
All I really do is set a couple on the human detection with the alert. Like one in the shop and cabin .
