Am I overreacting? Maintenance man came in my house without my permission.
adding to this- when i lived in a house, i've had many random people ring my doorbell (likely to scope out if anyone is home). one time i opened the door without checking the viewer, and they came up with an excuse that they're answering an ad to rent a room then quickly left when i said wrong addre

Knocking on my door at 3:14 AM
Ring doorbell (or a cheaper one will work perfectly fine). You can get a Blink video door bell for $29.99 and a no drill mount (if that's a problem since your in an apartment) for $9.99-16.99. I do contract work as a private investigator. Thats the easiest one. You can get all types of hidden ones f

Need serious insight
100% agree …..I’m the type that wants proof if you tell me something (yes I’m overly suspicious of people), so better to have a ring/blink camera. Like someone said below if a neighbor is vandalizing your peephole you will have proof if they try to do same to the doorbell camera. My neighbor had his

Toxic in-laws harassing my wife after LC/NC boundary—now using house sale to force contact. Don’t feel safe at home. Advice needed.
Just block completely. Get a doorbell camera (blink makes one that’s not crazy expensive). If they show up, tell they’re not welcome, you can talk through the camera if you don’t want to answer. If they show up refuse to leave or keep showing up involve the police

Home security cameras without monthly payment
We have used Blink for years; doorbell and multiple outdoor cameras. With the sync module and a USB flash drive we have never had to pay a monthly subscription. The video quality is pretty good, but we do have occasional issues with the app. Camera battery health is average. I would wait until Cyber

New cameras
Your existing doorbell wiring doesn't power the Blink doorbell camera in any way whatsoever. I've had batteries that lasted well over 2 years with the 1st gen doorbell and it's been so far, so good with the 2nd gen. And that's with using both with a sync module. My advice is to not try to use the do

Has anyone switched from ring?
I’ve had Blink outdoor cameras and a Ring doorbell. I’m grandfathered in to the Blink system. I just ditched my Ring doorbell because the subscription is due next month. When I first started using Ring doorbells (this is my second) the yearly subscription was something like $20. Since Amazon bought

What you get without subscription?
I’ve been using Blink without a subscription for two years now. While I had some issues with video not recording on the usb drive, this seems to have been solved since early this year. It’s fine for me. I get notifications and I can see missed doorbell rings or movement recordings via the app. I don

acho que a proprietária da casa que alugo está entrando na minha casa quando saio para o trabalho
Blink cameras work just fine & will alert you as long as you have it ‘armed’ in the app. Place one in your main rooms & look at a ‘live’ view at different times during the day. If you want the person to see it so they know they are being recorded, just leave it on a table or counter. Blink makes a g

It finally happened 😭💔
What I find is I cannot view real time videos once my Blink doorbell started to record, like it cannot multi-task. My conclusion is that the brand is good value for the money, but not mission critical.
