Been using SkyBell for a couple months now. It’s basically a video doorbell and home security system. Pretty solid app if you’re into that kinda stuff. Here’s what you do: you can get alerts on your phone whenever someone’s at your door, and you can even talk to them through the app. There’s also some cool smart home features where you can control compatible locks and stuff. And the AI can even recognize faces and stuff – took me a while to figure that out but it’s useful. Look, if you’re into home security apps, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the setup can be a bit tricky at first – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.

So here's my honest take on SkyBell. I've tested a bunch of home security apps and this one's pretty good. I like all the smart features like the video calls and integrations with other smart home tech. And the AI stuff is pretty cool too, though it can be hit or miss sometimes. The app itself is well-designed and easy to use for the most part. Only real downside is that the setup can be a pain if you're not tech-savvy. But overall, it's a solid option if you want a video doorbell with some extra smarts.
Pros
- Tons of smart home features like video calls and lock control
- AI can recognize faces and alert you

- Good video quality for the doorbell
Cons
- Setup can be tricky if you're not familiar with this stuff
- AI face recognition isn't perfect and can be slow
- Doorbell camera quality could be better in low light
- Occasionally gets buggy and needs a restart
