Eve Outdoor Cam - Secure Floodlight Camera

eve outdoor cam

Protect your home. Protect your privacy.

Keep a close eye on your home around the clock. Eve Outdoor Cam packs advanced technology into a sleek metal enclosure and is designed exclusively for Apple HomeKit Secure Video, built from the ground up to keep your data secure and your private space safe.

USPs: 100% privacy: HomeKit Secure Video I Dimmable floodlight I Rich notifications I People/pet/vehicle detection I Package detection I 157° field of view with night vision

Designed exclusively for HomeKit Secure Video.

When you view the video stream from your Eve Outdoor Cam while out and about, you communicate back to base directly over an end-to-end encrypted connection. Your camera’s live stream never reaches the cloud – not even the iCloud. You choose what and when you want to record – Apple TV or HomePod then take over the task of analyzing in the privacy of your own four walls whether it’s a person, pet, vehicle, or package in the picture.

The happenings are only recorded, encrypted, and stored in your iCloud once your recording criteria are met. And only your personal devices have the key to unlock these recordings.

  • Requirements: iPhone or iPad with the latest version of iOS/iPadOS; HomePod or Apple TV (4th generation or later) as a home hub; Wi-Fi network (2,4 GHz 802.11b/g/n); 50 GB Apple iCloud+ storage plan or higher (not included)
  • Power: AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz
  • Wireless Connection: WLAN (2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n)
  • Compatibility: Eve Outdoor Cam requires both a neutral wire and a connection to a ground wire.
  • Dimensions: 6.7 x 2.6 x 3 in

notification

notification

two-way communication

Get instant, rich notifications.

Receive notifications on your iPhone the moment motion is detected, and keep your home safe from intruders. That way you can take immediate action if there’s an unwanted visitor and record evidence at the same time. And by leveraging your home hub's facial recognition capabilities, you'll be notified when people you've tagged in the Photos app enter the field of view so you know exactly who's at your door.

Customize notifications and recordings.

Choose when you want to be notified and if you want to make recordings whenever something is up or only if people, pets, vehicles, or packages are detected. The video footage is analyzed securely in your home by your home hub, not in any cloud. Recordings are saved for ten days in your iCloud and then deleted automatically. If you want to hold on to a recording, you have the option to save it permanently.

Two-way communication.

Not at home, and the courier wants to know where to drop the delivery? No problem! With the built-in microphone and speaker, you can say where to put your package.

Greater security with maximum privacy.

eve outdoor cam

Eve Outdoor Cam exclusively supports Apple HomeKit Secure Video, enabling you to securely store activity detected by Eve Outdoor Cam in iCloud. Using on-device intelligence, Apple TV or HomePod can determine when a person, animal, vehicle, or package is present before securely storing the recording in iCloud for you. A 10-day recording history is available to view in the Apple Home app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

Connection: For maximum range, Eve Outdoor Cam is compatible with 2.4 GHz band networks only. DHCP function must be active on your router, authentication via MAC addresses must be off. HomeKit requires Bonjour so please make sure to disable router tools like “Storm Control” that interfere with the Bonjour protocol (e.g. mDNS, Multicast). Avoid Wi-Fi access points that connect through Powerline/PowerLAN as they are also known to impact Bonjour.

Installation: Eve Outdoor Cam is best installed replacing an existing outdoor light and requires AC power with a connection to ground. For further details on how to install Eve Outdoor Cam, watch the installation video. The camera has to be mounted in an upright position with the camera’s microphone and speaker array facing downwards in order to prevent water damage. Eve Outdoor Cam has been designed to be mounted directly on a wall. Unless your electrical junction box has channels with 60 mm / 2.36 in clearance (center to center), you may need an extra light fixture mounting bracket (for customers that need to the mounting bracket kit, you can request a free one by writing to store@evehome. com).

Your dependable first line of defense.

With a wide 157° field of view and night vision, Eve Outdoor Cam keeps a close eye on everything day and night – and in pin-sharp detail with HD live video streaming and recording. Thanks to a dedicated motion sensor, Eve Outdoor Cam won't bother you with reacting to leaves blowing in the wind, small animals, and other events that don't require your attention.

Turn night into day.

Eve Outdoor Cam turns on the built-in flood light automatically the moment the motion sensor detects activity. Set if, when, and for how long you want the dimmable flood light to illuminate the space, and use the Eve app to turn on light boost when you want it to shine extra-bright.

HomeKit Secure Video requires iCloud+.

HomeKit Secure Video requires iCloud+ (not included). iCloud+ with 50 GB storage supports one camera, iCloud+ with 200 GB storage supports up to five cameras, and iCloud+ with 2 TB storage supports an unlimited number of cameras.

Camera recordings don’t count against your iCloud+ storage limit.

Customers are satisfied with the brightness of the security camera. They mention that the floodlight is bright and convenient, and they are impressed with the light boost mode.

15 customers mention8 positive7 negative

Customers are mixed about the build quality of the security camera. Some mention that it's well built, solid, and reliable. However, others say that it is not the kind of quality they would expect from a nearly $300 camera, it'd break in less than 40 days.

10 customers mention3 positive7 negative

Customers are mixed about the motion detection of the security camera. Some mention that the integration of the motion detector, the flood light, and the iCloud account makes it a great product. However, others say that the night vision is good, but the one disappointment is the motion sensor. Some customers say the motion sensing and light activation is delayed by a few seconds and the camera completely disregards the motion zone they set in HomeKit. The camera sometimes misses some motion and the light does not come on with motion, although the Home app reports it.

"...Motion Detection: The motion detection and light activation is delayed by a few seconds compared to my neighbor’s Ring floodlight cam..." Read more

"...Secondly, and most frustratingly, the motion light WILL NOT TURN OFF on its own...." Read more

Customers are dissatisfied with the connectivity of the security camera. They mention that it constantly disconnects, and does not connect to WiFi. They also say that connecting to HomeKit is impossible, and the unit needs a strong WiFi signal to work effectively. Customers also say the wireless chip is sub-par, and that the product only uses 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.

"...Of course they only use 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, so if your network has only 5 GHz, look elsewhere...." Read more

Not for anything beyond 10 feet.
2 Stars
Not for anything beyond 10 feet.
Update 1:After about a week of use now, I’m only further disappointed in, and frustrated with, this cam.A few additional items to note:- Camera: The camera is so terrible that unless you’re within about 10 feet of it, you’ll never be able to make anything out such as faces or license plates. I get that perhaps this wasn’t designed for distant, garage application, but it should be at least capable enough to deliver a clear center image rather than a pixelated mess.- Sound: I didn’t comment on this before, but it’s just as terrible as everything else. There is seemingly no noise control (ANR) built into this cam, so every recording (or live view) is just background noise. This can likely be fixed via firmware update, but will require attention of someone at Eve that knows anything about audio programming.- Motion Detection: The motion detection and light activation is delayed by a few seconds compared to my neighbor’s Ring floodlight cam (which is far superior in every way btw, except for privacy).I’m not happy with the fact that there just isn’t much positive to say about this cam, but alas here we are. I’ll likely just return it and replace it with a POE camera and good led light.Original Review:Let’s face it, the only reason anyone is at all interested in this camera is for its HomeKit integration and Eve’s promise not to harvest/sell user data (who knows…). As such, this fills a much needed gap, given most manufacturers have shunned HomeKit because they wouldn’t get to be greedy creeps and voyeurs and harvest your biometric data for either profit or the CCP.With that said, there’s a lot left to be desired with this camera. And I mean A LOT! It’s plain sad that in 2022 this is all we have to look forward to. Shame on Apple for not having done better by now to get into the IOT world with HomeKit and leaving up to tiny (but well-meaning) companies like Eve to eek it out in this overcrowded market.Having just received and installed this cam, this will be a brief overview, with more to follow once I have a bit more time with it.The Good:1. Build quality. Kudos to Eve on the nice design and overall quality. Though it may be inspired by another brand, I’m not personally familiar enough with it to evaluate the similarities and differences between the two. This is made in Taiwan, which is a major plus.The Bad:1. Everything else! Eve really had an opportunity to make major waves with this, but IMO failed tremendously. They also failed to recognize that many HomeKit fans are into advanced tech and are more critical and discerning, and will recognize a bad product. I wonder whether this was ever market-tested (unlikely).In fact, there’s so much bad, I simply don’t have the time/energy to write it now, and feel Eve may have to pay consultancy fees for it.I’ll briefly list some fails:- Camera. Well, Eve might well be limited by Apple (stupidly) to 1080p, but it’s still a terrible camera with an awful lens. Heck, my 720p baby monitor displays a better image on a crappy display.- Light. While the integrated light and IR work okay and has a good color temperature, “boost mode” should be the standard brightness. Why limit it? And why not integrate a cable to jump an add-on light. In other words, it’s an okay light for a small entryway, but don’t expect it to “light up the night” as Eve marketing claims.- Mount. The mount is only okay if you have a smooth surface with a cable sticking out of the wall. Any rough surface (brick, siding, etc.) and the rubber gasket is useless. Why not include a junction box plate? That’s a major miss, especially in the US market.- HomeKit. Again, the ONLY reason I’d even look at this is for the secure/private HomeKit integration. As such, why force the Eve app on users? I, for one, don’t care how many times you claim to ensure privacy and security. Just don’t do it! (And please Apple, stop forcing us to allow every silly app to access ALL of the Home data. That’s insanity!- Color. There should be a white color option. Seriously, everyone else does this in white. Have you looked at ANYTHING?- WiFi. Come on, it’s 2022. Just give us 5ghz and stop the silly argument that it’s not great for an outdoor device. Nonsense! This is a “premium” device. And every premium outdoor camera today has dual-band WiFi. Again, HomeKit people will likely figure out WiFi extenders, mesh networks, and Thread. Stop playing us for fools!- Stickers. Eve includes two stickers that are supposed to be posted, I guess (well, one in Spanish, which is about the same thing)… (see image). It’s quite pathetic. Almost like an insult. Surely, you could come up with a better way of communicating to would-be trespassers that they’re on camera…Well, I guess I did end up writing quite a bit here. Hopefully this helps. I’m sure there will be many paid shills on YT “unboxing” this, but figured I’d add my actual “verified” experience with it.P.S. Seriously, the first manufacturer that just makes one of their existing devices available for HomeKit (up-charge it, I don’t care), will have all the business.

1.0 out of 5 stars Great when it works, excruciating to debug
Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2023
This product is fine when it works. Trouble is that when it doesn't, it's nearly impossible to debug. After resetting it and attempting to re-add to the network, it spits back four different error messages within a span of a few minutes. Like others have pointed out, it's not reliable in part to its sub-par wireless chip. Eve is normally a great company with awesome products but this product, as good as it looks from the outside, is a dud.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well built…terrible installation guide…
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2024
Forget the supplied instructions. Assemble the camera entirely before mounting to the wall. This includes pulling the wire through the hole (flush) and installing the holding clip. Trying to do this while balancing on a ladder is idiotic. Pre-assembly “first” made installation a breeze.

The picture and sound quality are very impressive. Installation was standard and it connected to my HomeKit with little hassle (had to do a hard reset before my phone would pick it up, however I was having electrical issues anyways and I believe it would of been turned on and off several times while that was being fixed). The only complaint I have, is I wish they would have made the installation box square instead of circle, since the standard light box that is recessed into the way (not noticeable) is square. I had to carve a bit of wood away to have it fit into the old space. I know they made it circle because of the security feature but I think there could have been a better way.

I did notice a couple of times when I’ve opened my Home app, that the camera “is not responding” … my Logitech doorbell does this as well. I upgraded my Internet in hopes to correct the issue but it didn’t work. I just purchased a wifi extender in hopes that’ll help.

Overall happy with this purchase and would buy again.

Built very well. The software is excellent and very versatile. Love the fact that it is truly private.
My one wish? Not for myself but for others who are considering this security camera. It is set up for mounting on a wall but like myself, this is not always possible and must be ceiling mounted. Not a problem for me as I love a challenge and with about $25 worth of parts (from here on Amazon) I did a bit of "Dr Frankenstein" though the "monster" turned out not too ugly. See picture. Sure the seller would be able to sell more of this great Camera/Light if they had a kit for a ceiling mount.
