Video sent to your phone from your doorbell, any connection, any distance. Two way audio, motion sensing, video recording monthly package (addon).

Just ordered one on sale. Backordered but coming.

Wait until birds start making a nest on your front porch. Right, Trav?

Lately it has been spiders. That's what I get for putting the cameras near porch lights.

Everyone I know who has one loves it. Some of them have posted videos showing people trying to steal packages off their porch, testing the door to see if it is unlocked, etc.

This is one of the smarter smart device applications I've seen.  I like how they built a subscription plan into the business model.

I used to have a little part time postie round, and these were popping up before I left.
It was very weird knowing I was speaking to someone, at times, in a different country.
