I have been thinking about purchasing a camera to use in my home because one of our dogs suffers from severe separation anxiety and has actually hurt himself on several occasions because we have left the house. The poor guy takes almost more medications than I do but at least he is calm down a bit!However, what really tipped my hand to purchase a camera is the fact that my son is doing online classes for high school and I have been getting reports from his teachers that he is not responding and possibly even sleeping through some of the classes. While I don't have a problem getting up with him in the morning for his 7:20 start time for school, I really would rather lounge in bed for a little while and take my time getting up. But things got so bad that I had to promise his teachers that I would actually sit with him and supervise him, making sure he is online, attentive and doing his last work. But I told my son that my having to get up and out of bed early just to keep an eye on him is more of a punishment for me.I decided to go ahead and get a camera that had Bluetooth connection to my phone so I could watch the camera anywhere I went as long as I had my phone with me. Now, I have the camera trained on him in the mornings and I can lay in bed with the video on and keep an eye on him.One of the positive features of this super-simple system is that it allows me to talk to my son if I'm in a different room or even out of the house, and it allows him to reply back to me. The only problem I've had with this system so far is that sometimes the audio featured glitches and I have to turn off the video and turn it back on. Other than that, this has been $25 well spent!I would absolutely recommend this product to others.PS: My son hates it, of course, especially when he hears my voice saying, "Wake up! " LOL
