Tuya Smart

I use the app for CCTV, the app works "ok" most of the time. My issue is that, CCTV is put in place so it can be reviewed if something has happened, Tuya make this extremely difficult. If you need to look for an event over a period of time you have no option but to watch the entire playback at normal speed. Make it possible to select a portion of the footage and allow it to be downloaded in a playable format, you can't even remove the sd card to access it due to strange file formats used.

The app rarely actually works. I have this one my room that I rent and when coming back from the shower I use the app as my fingerprint tends to not work after a shower. But the app rarely works and I get locked out alot. You have to restart the app 3-5 times each time and then it may work. It connects, but when you hit the button to unlock it the app doesn't respond.

I haven't even used the thing yet. The app requires my cell phone to be connected to a 2.4 GHz network. LOL, hahaha, not going to happen. Considering sending this thing back just on general principles. (5.6 GHz has only been around for 15 or 20 years.) Also, the manual is terrible and very hard to decipher.
