HomeKit Wemo Doorbell

[furbzv1]

I am going back to my old Google Hello Doorbell and will get a Starling hub to get all my other Google/Nest devices to HomeKit. I really tried giving this the benefit of the doubt but I could not get past the sh*tty image quality in the day and even worse at night. I could barely see my car parked outside the house.

I’m leaning toward the same thing. The image quality is soooooo bad.

Update: I'm back with the Nest. It's just so disappointing that the Nest continues to be so much better. Also $100 cheaper than the Wemo.

Has anyone used a Ring plug in adapter 2nd gen to power a Wemo doorbell camera? The adapter outputs a DC current. (However, the actual Ring cameras also say that they require AC current even though the plug in adapter can power it)

I haven’t used that one but anything that outputs the proper voltage/current will work. I use this one and can confirm it works fine 24VAC, 40 VA AC Transformer Plug... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083R621RV

Thanks. Unfortunately this is 120v. We have 230v :-(

My WeMo has stopped responding and is refusing to reset. I have had to reset the thing so many times that I suspect that I've worn out the impossible-to-get-at reset button. If they were smart, they would make the hole big enough that you can use the screwdriver they provide for the locking screw to hit the reset button, but it's so small that the only thing I have found that I can use.

My experience with the WeMo has been horrible.

Mine works--but just barely. Here's my review on Amazon, if anyone is interested. I'd love for someone to tell me I'm wrong and it will work great and with an eero wifi if just do X.

Check out this Amazon review of WeMo Smart Video Doorbell - Apple HomeKit Secure Video with HDR - Smart Home Products Video Doorbell Camera - Ring Doorbell for Security Camera System - WiFi Camera Doorbell w/ 223° FOV & 2-Way Audio

Does not work with Eero wifi.
