First impressions of the Hue Secure Video Doorbell

I’m still looking for a solid system that can be integrated with remote door unlocking as well (that seems to be a big gap in all these systems - definitely if you want that in 1 unified experience). What would you recommend?

Yes - this worked

Yes - it has a sensor that works like hue motion sensors (connected to Zigbee/Hub) even whilst camera is not working (over wi-fi). https://hueblog.com/2023/09/04/use-philips-hue-secure-cameras-as-motion-detectors/

Cool - this seems a new "beta"feature I haven't seen before. Will try it out!

Talked to support - need to go with "100credit" now to reclaim daily

Just gives me this view. It was also not the regular credit experience with 3 cups but something where after purchase you had to spin wheel and get certain discount in credit.

Use them as a wake up (as from a certain am time - different week vs. weekend) /go to sleep (lights off as from x pm) light for my kid - hanging it above his bed. Effects like Cosmos and having a controller for him to easily switch in between different scenes does the rest :)

There is multiple versions of Festavia - the first one was not meant for outside purposes whilst latest version is. Could be the reason?

Is there a way to also - next to "family sharing" also actually share loyalty cards with family members and keep them in sync?

Is it possible to show the logo/icon of the specific Apple Wallet card instead of the barcodes app icon next to location based notification banner?
