can you get SMS notifications with this camera?

Technically you could create a new email just for the camera and not give the email out so you wont get other messages or spam and set it up like Carl W. suggested above, that's what I'll be doing.

You can if you tie your sms notifications to your e mail. But i have done that and its a pain if you get a lot of text messages. You have to go to both areas to delete.you will have to turn your motion detect under settings on the camera. Then pin it to your e mail and tie sms to e mail.but no camera only sends e mail. Its web based.

Yes, you can but you have to check "user manual" which comes with camera and follow instructions and pictures. Is not that intuitive but can be done.

Yes, you can, but the answering machine doesn't play messages out loud as they are being recorded.

I don't know as I haven't had time to try that feature yet but I would contact someone like B& H photo who also sells them and ask as they sell cameras as well and have extensive knowledge on the subject. Sorry My best answer

That's a great question. The camera has a lot of features but I'm not sure if it's able to do that.

I think what may help is motion detection. I already asked the tech support guy and he said they are working towards this functionality. I would think it be done soon over the next release or two. So far my camera works great so over all its a good by. good luck ;)

Yes, the Camera has motion detection built in. Works well with the ones I have. Set them up thru Nexia to send you a text every time the built in PIR is triggered.

Nope. Any motion sensing would have to be done in the software. Most modern systems do it this way, these days. Keeps the cost down on the camera, anyway.

The camera is WiFi enabled. When connected to a WiFi network, you can use a host of Internet apps. Email apps are available. During our trip to Ireland last summer, my wife checked her email when connected to the hotel's WiFi network. The camera does not connect to cellular providers' 3G/4G networks. so there is no direct texting ability through phone networks. It may be possible to download an app which allows you to text from the camera to cellular phones when the camera is connected to a WiFi network. We have not done so.

I use text for Dropcams that I want immediate response. I usually get a text within seconds of the camera noticing my motion.

You can send pictures via SMS, not video. Files like video files can be sent to your phone via Bluetooth. No video sensor, there is a timer where you can limit video length (or leave unlimited) You can adjust picture quality, white balance etc.

Yes. You don't need to have it in service to use the camera. You can do everything with this phone with the exception of making phone calls, and texting without activation.

email yes - if you have a email address for your sms(text) number then yes. Also the app on your smartphone alerts you too.

Yes, it has a built-in messaging app. You can use that as long as you are connected to an internet WiFi connection. Hope that helps you
