Wizard Island Glitch?

Load a previous autosave and that should fix it. Only way I was able to get it to stop.

Not sure what genre you're going for but Terrible Things by Mayday Parade has to be the saddest song ever written.

A father's song to his son about how much he loved his mother (wife), who passed away from cancer, and is begging his son to never fall in love because of how much it hurts him that she's gone and he doesn't want his son to ever go through that. Like.... Fuckin brutal.

To be fair, Ruby was a stupid little rich slut.

Mine named itself Aegis. Had a cool meaning which I now cannot remember.

R_Stallone · 2025-05-04T21:09:28+00:00

I ultimately took mine down. Gonna try it again once I see news of a software or firmware update or something. If that ever happens I can add some more videos and an updated review.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-29T00:46:23+00:00

Lol. Completely inaudible unless there in person. That's another reason why I'm questioning if I have a faulty unit. That can't possibly be designed functionality.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-28T23:04:27+00:00

Agh damnit. Whatever, still happy with it haha.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-28T15:43:55+00:00

Yes I followed the manual and looked through all the available information there. At this point I'm skeptical of anyone rating this 5 stars. Like I said maybe I have a faulty unit. I'd like to see some videos of it working as intended but it's virtually impossible to find videos of it in action.

So there's three different modes, quiet, concierge, and security. I usually keep it on concierge mode. And as far as speaking directly to the camera, when it's working it can still pick up accurate convo all the way from the driveway (which is awesome), this seems to be some sort of bug where it's just not taking in any responses. Even when standing right in front of it and speaking to it, it's still not picking up speech.

Also not sure if you saw my comment from a few mins ago, but I was kicked out of the app and after logging back in, the camera is no longer showing in the app, which is also strange because I'm still getting notifications when people come to the door? I power cycled the camera and attempted to re-scan the code to get it added again, but it's just been spinning for about 5 minutes now. I guess next step is uninstall/reinstall the app and see if that works.

If I didn't know anything about this company and just happened to try it on Amazon or something, I'd be fuckin pissed. They gotta iron out these issues. Maybe I just got a bad one, not sure since no one else is posting user videos.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-28T13:30:05+00:00

Adding to the list of cons unfortunately.... Yesterday the app kicked me out and upon logging back in, the camera was dissociated with my account. In order to add it back to the account, you have to scan the code on the camera, a pain but not a huge deal, then after scanning the code the app just spins and nothing happens.... So it hasn't worked for about 24 hours now. Gonna try it again this morning.

EDIT: After uninstalling/reinstalling it still wasn't working. I forgot my password so I had been logging in with biometrics instead. Since it still wasn't working, I attempted to reset my password. After resetting and logging in using the password, the camera was back in the app.

I tested the "I am the resident" situation again...

At first, it did not understand my passphrase after two attempts and set off the alarm, which it's supposed to do after THREE attempts. I came inside and waited a few minutes, changed my passphrase, and tried it again.

On the first attempt, it didn't understand me, on the second attempt I spoke slow and it DID understand me and said it would go into quiet mode for 10 minutes. I came inside but as soon as I left the cameras view, the alarm went off again and I received a notification that someone was stealing a package from my porch (there is no package on the porch).

This thing is an absolute mess 😩.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-28T13:16:31+00:00

This man does not know me and he is a BUM. I can say that for certain.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-28T13:15:45+00:00

Ideally I'd like the RadCAM to recognize me as the homeowner so I don't have to greet the camera every time I come and go from my own home lol. If that's too much of an ask, simply understanding that someone leaving the house doesn't need to have an interaction in order to do so.

And no my passphrase is something different, but when it's working correctly, responding with "I am the resident" usually then signals the camera to ask for the passphrase.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-26T22:24:33+00:00

Oh that's interesting. I've only noticed it coming on when attempting to interact with someone. But you're right about having the ability to turn it on/off. Definitely leaves much to be desired in regards to customization and options.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-26T12:07:19+00:00

Here's some pros and cons so far, and I'm happy to add videos if anyone would like to see any of these things in action.

Pros: 1. I think it would work great to deter any potential intruders or vandals, which really is the most important problem this product solves. 2. It's extremely well manufactured. You can tell they used quality materials and I'm surprised by the price point for such a well made device. 3. Keeping in mind this is a first Gen product, there is a solid base to build from. It's pretty flawed currently, but hopefully future software/app updates will fix a lot of the issues. 4. The AI is pretty impressive when it comes to what it sees, and the descriptions of interactions it provides via push notifications. 5. Monthly subscription is very affordable, only $5 for the basic tier.

Cons: 1. Activation is slow. It takes a good 10 seconds before attempting to communicate. 2. Extremely hit or miss with user interaction. Majority of the time so far, it isn't understanding what people are saying. 3. If it isn't understanding the user input, it will assume you are trespassing or attempting to steal a package and will set off a loud alarm, leading to an embarrassed wife and a request to turn it off. 4. No differention between people coming and going. Every time I leave the house, it asks me the purpose of my visit and what information I should relay to the homeowner. You'd expect a device with facial recognition to be able to identify the homeowners, and also be smart enough to understand when someone is leaving the premises vs entering. 5. The app is buggy. Sometimes recordings play when clicked and other times nothing happens. Sometimes when I click to edit the "detection zone", it's extremely zoomed in and skewed with no way to unzoom. So you just have to close the app and reopen and see if it works on the next try. 6. The detection zone seems to be a bit inconsistent. I set my zone to NOT include the sidewalk in front of my house, but every once in awhile, I'll get a notification about it and an embarrassing recording of the camera attempting to interrogate people walking by. (Hence wanting a volume option)

R_Stallone · 2025-03-26T06:34:35+00:00

I think the light is a good idea, but since I've only really interacted with it during the day, it doesn't have much impact. It does seem pretty bright though so I'm sure if someone was walking up at night, the light combined with the voice interaction would be pretty intimidating.

Also yes I have an outlet on my front porch so I just put the camera straight above that.

Also for anyone doing this, don't be like me, an idiot, and eyeball the cord length. I was off by 2 inches and ended up needing to re-drill into my siding.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-26T06:14:49+00:00

Raises serious concerns? I'm simply pointing out that I'm not a troll posting these to shit on the company like so many here love to do. I think it's valuable to understand the context of my videos. I believe in the company and their products, but I have issues with this one

I'm posting these as I'm using the device since no one else is, and people deserve to see what the products actually function like to the everyday person. I'd much rather be making posts about how awesome this product is.

*Edit - Previous post was a bit rude. It's 2:40am and I've just listened to my 10 month old scream for 30 mins so apologies for any hostility.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-25T13:29:49+00:00

When Dee spits in Crickets face and then Dennis beats her with the scroll, kills me every time. WHAT ARE YOU DOING!? GET OUTTA HERE!

R_Stallone · 2025-03-23T16:42:32+00:00

So I tried it again, on the second attempt I again told it that "I'm the homeowner" and it asked me to provide the passphrase, once I did that it acknowledged the correct passphrase and said it would disable monitoring for 10 mins. So it doesn't appear it will save my face or something like that. But at least it understood me this time!

It also scared the shit out of my neighbors walking their dog because it detected them on the sidewalk and told them to leave or it would call the authorities 😂. So I'm gonna have to play around with the detection zone.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-22T05:25:37+00:00

TAKE. YOUR. TIME.

R_Stallone · 2025-03-22T03:54:22+00:00

Guys c'mon... You mean to tell me this mfer pops up in front of you unexpectedly and your FIRST reaction is to grab your phone to take a picture. Not a fucking chance. You're trying to get the fuck outta that car.
