Absolutely rubbish worked for one day. Took out a subscription thinking it would improve and it never picks motion up, wouldn't pick up an intruder for sure doesn't even pick up vehicles on my driveway that is very long. Not worth the money. Would not recommend these products. Going to get a form to install a decent reliable camera.

Dear Customer,
We are truly sorry to hear about your experience and completely understand your frustration, especially after purchasing the subscription service and still not getting the motion detection performance you expected.
Based on the issue you described, the problem may be related to the current detection sensitivity settings of the camera. We kindly recommend trying the following adjustments:
Increase the Motion Detection Sensitivity to a higher level
Turn OFF the Humanoid Detection / Human Detection option temporarily
Check whether there is any available firmware update for the camera in the App settings
These settings can significantly affect how often the camera detects movement, especially for vehicles or motion at longer distances.
If you still experience the same issue after adjusting the settings, please feel free to contact us again and provide the camera’s SN number so we can further investigate the device status and assist you more effectively.
We sincerely apologize again for the inconvenience and appreciate the opportunity to help improve the situation.

Have not been able to activate my camera.
Have not been able to activate my camera. I have the best fiber WiFi your money can buy. Wish I had sent it back via Walmart. Will go another way. Give this thingie away I guess. Live and learn!

Thank you for your question. Here are some steps to help activate your Meari WiFi camera:
Ensure the camera is powered on: If the device is in sleep mode, press the button to wake it up.
Reset the camera: Long press the reset button for 5 seconds until you hear a "beep" sound. This will reset the camera and make the indicator light flash red.
WiFi setup: Make sure your WiFi is 2.4GHz, as the camera does not support 5GHz networks. Ensure the password is correct and does not contain overly complex special characters.
QR code setup: Generate a QR code in the app and hold it 15-20 cm away from the camera lens. Wait for the camera to emit a sound indicating successful connection.
If the issue persists, please provide the order number and any photos or videos showing the malfunction for further assistance.

Today I was setting up my 4 new solar cameras.
Someone that's not great with technology- I found it easy to connect with the simple instructions given.
2 cameras wouldn't turn on - went on live chat - technical support immediately responded. Sent written instructions and short video. And it worked. Very pleased so far. Good clear picture.

Waited a while before leaving a review…
Waited a while before leaving a review regarding the Q3 tilt camera, very easy to set up and a very easy app to navigate round, my camera height is set up around 12ft and pointing directly at my gates which are probably about 8-10 metres away, the top of the camera view is just above the gate so it catches a very small area of road outside.
I have had multiple people (thankfully I know them all) open my gate by hand, return to their veichle and then drive onto my property in anything sized from small cars to small size lorry’s, because I’ve been expecting people I have gone on the app and watched them enter completely undetected by the camera notifications! Yet I will have a “motion detected” from a pedestrian walking outside and you can only just see their head above the gates.
I had a building materials small size lorry arrive recently and he was able to open the gate and reverse onto the driveway, deliver the material and leave all without a “motion detection” notification. Also baring in mind I have set the settings at 10 & 5 which are the highest available and also set the Humanoid detection area directly around the gates.
I’ve went back and forth with the company multiple times and they even sent me a replacement camera in the hope that would fix the issue but it’s exactly the same!
So the overall review for the 360° Q1 camera is absolutely terrible! I was refunded 50% of the total price of 1 camera and that was everything, I would certainly not recommend these cameras to anyone at all.

Dear Customer,
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed experience with the Q3 Tilt Camera. We are truly sorry to hear that the camera has not performed as expected, especially after all the troubleshooting and even the replacement process we previously arranged for you.
We completely understand how frustrating it must be to see important events, such as vehicles entering your driveway and deliveries being made, not triggering notifications, while unrelated movement outside the property is detected instead. We also appreciate the clear explanation of your installation position and settings — this information is very helpful.
Based on the situation you described, the issue is most likely related to the PIR detection characteristics of battery-powered cameras. These cameras are generally more sensitive to sideways movement across the detection area rather than movement directly toward the camera. Since your camera is mounted high and facing directly toward the gates, vehicles entering straight toward the camera may not always trigger detection effectively, especially larger vehicles moving slowly.
To improve the detection performance, we kindly recommend the following adjustments:
Lower the installation angle slightly if possible, so the camera can capture more side movement when vehicles pass through the gate.
Expand the humanoid detection area slightly beyond the gate entrance instead of keeping it tightly centered only on the gate.
Temporarily disable Humanoid Detection and test using standard Motion Detection only, as some vehicles may not be recognized under humanoid filtering.
Confirm the camera firmware is fully updated to the latest version.
We fully understand that you have already spent considerable time testing the system, and we sincerely apologize that the experience has not met your expectations. Even though we previously provided a partial refund and replacement camera, we still genuinely appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving both our products and support service.
If you would still be willing to continue troubleshooting with us, please feel free to send us the camera SN number along with screenshots of your current detection settings, and we will ask our senior technical team to review the setup once again for you.
Thank you again for your patience and understanding.
Best regards,
FU
