Is there a WiFi camera with an app for viewing when away from home, that has decent privacy? Plug and play would be nice. Limited time to do major setup as in 2 hours tops. Cost is fine nothing into 4 digits. Recording not neccesary. No storage is needed. Simple live viewing is all.

    i personally stay away of any “cloud” connection like hik connect…

    By cloud connection I mean that the device connects to the provider’s cloud (vpn) and you(end user) connect to the provider to view your OWN video footage.

    In terms of privacy this is disaster because the provider can view/process as in AI all your video footage in real time. Further the provider can track the shit out of us and do many other nasty things…

    Hope it helps!
