Quick Troubleshooting

The camera won’t connect – what should I check?

Make sure Bluetooth is turned on and follow the setup steps in the Tuya app. If it doesn’t connect, restart the camera and try again.

Does the camera work without an SD card?

Yes. Live view works without an SD card. The included SD card is used for recording and playback.

How do I view recordings?

Open the Tuya app, select your camera, then tap Playback to view saved footage on the SD card.

Can I share camera access with someone else?

Yes. You can share access with family members directly through the Tuya app.

Do I need to pay for a subscription later?

Everything is included from day one. There are no monthly fees, no premium tiers, and no features locked behind a paywall.

You pay once and that's it!
