Super Compact
This hidden camera honestly exceeded my expectations. The size is super compact, which makes it easy to place just about anywhere without it being noticeable. From the picture, you can see how small the actual unit is, but it still feels solid and well put together. Setup was straightforward and didn’t take long. Once connected, the app worked smoothly and the live feed came through clearly. The second photo shows the live view, and the video quality is actually better than I expected for something this small. It’s clear enough to make out details in a room, and the connection has been stable. I also like how discreet the wiring is—it’s easy to tuck away and hide if needed. This makes it really useful for keeping an eye on a space without drawing attention to it. Overall, it does exactly what it’s supposed to do: reliable, easy to use, and delivers solid video quality. For the price, this is a great value and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a simple, low-profile monitoring solution.

It works exactly as advertised, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and affordable mini camera.

A good little camera
Have the S01 single camera and am very happy with it. The little camera on the flex cable is very inconspicuous so easy to hide it. Easy to use on a Halloween prop to act as eyes to see what is going on live as well as recording it (replacing a large ¾ inch sided cube camera I currently have on the prop so should be much less conspicuous than that). Hopefully the camera and cable hold up ok over time. Video and audio quality is good. Live video has no delay to very little delay (guessing maybe 200 milliseconds at most) which I needed for my interactive use of the camera. And this is in AP connection mode or remote connection mode. While the camera does not have night vision it does pretty decent in low light conditions. The live audio, however, appears to be delayed by a second compared to the live video (as well as this way in the recorded video), but for my purposes it doesn't matter as I use a separate microphone to hear live audio, and can edit the recorded mp4 file to sync the video and audio. Easy to flip the view horizontally or vertically to accommodate the positioning of the camera itself. For recording have tried it with a 256GB SD card as well as recording videos directly on my smartphone and it worked fine in both cases. Have not tried cloud recording. Also was able to download these files and play them back on my computer although if you are going to skip/seek to a certain time on the playback you need the right playback application/program as some will not allow you to do this with the mp4 files the camera produces (i.e. not allow you to seek to a certain time location on the playback). The vendor recommended the KM application which did work for doing this. The MPC-HC program also worked as well to handle this seeking. My windows media player did not allow me to skip. The file size on the SD card were about 17 to 20MB for a 5 minute clip in normal video (not high definition) so can theoretically store 44 days worth of video (have not checked if loop recording actually works for overwriting older files but assume it does). Even if the file size is 4 times as large could still store at least 11 days of video before loop overwriting. When using the SD card you can either remove the card from the camera and connect to your computer via an SD card reader to download the files, or you can download the files wirelessly to your smartphone using the HomeEye app and then download them from the smartphone to your computer (either vie usb connector or emailing, google drive, google photos, etc). Files on the camera SD card can be played back on the Smartphone as well in the HomeEye app (wirelessly accesses the SD card in the camera to do this). Battery power does work but did not test for how long as I mainly use the usb cord to continuously power it. HomeEye app appears to work fine using this camera. I have an older cube camera that used HomeEye but it no longer allows me to record the videos file directly to the smartphone for that older camera when it used to be able to do this for some reason. Only tried the motion detection and alert capability part of the intelligent detection (have not tried Human detection). Motion detection (using medium sensitivity) seemed to work for the very brief time I tested it and gave notifications to the phone. Captured photos mostly showed the moving object using medium sensitivity but I imagine it would show more if I played around with the sensitivity. Not sure why the camera itself does not support a direct URL for accessing the video from the camera like web cams do as this would allow more flexibility in local recording (ftp, rtsp, cgi, etc) as well as motion detection and allow many more apps to be used to do this. Wireless connection in AP mode or remote mode worked fine for me. Still worked when at least 34 feet from the WIFI router thru walls and inside a closed garage (didn’t check any farther). All in all a good camera so far for the price.

Small camera, surprisingly solid performance
I set this up mainly to keep an eye on a room while I'm out, and it's exceeded expectations for the price. The size is the standout feature it genuinely disappears into a shelf or bookcase, nothing like the bulky "hidden" cameras I've tried before. Video quality is legit 1080p. text on documents and faces across the room are both clear, not the mushy footage you get from a lot of budget mini cams. WiFi connection has been reliable for remote viewing, and I like that it falls back to local SD recording if the connection drops, so you're not left with gaps in footage. I'm running a 128GB card and it holds weeks of footage before needing to clear it out. Motion detection alerts are quick and I haven't had a flood of false positives, which was my biggest worry going in. Setup was straightforward, had it paired and recording within about ten minutes. Only minor gripe: the DIY module design means you'll want to plan out your housing/enclosure a bit, so it's not quite as plug-and-play as a pre-cased camera. But for anyone wanting a discreet, high-quality nanny cam or security setup, this delivers well above its price point. Highly recommend.

A Tiny Powerhouse for Discreet, Reliable Surveillance!
If you’re looking for a compact, versatile, and high-performance security camera, the HiSpyCam Mini Camera DIY Module is an absolute game-changer. This little device packs a punch with features that make it perfect for home security, nanny cams, pet monitoring, or even retail surveillance—all while staying completely hidden in plain sight. 🔍 Crystal-Clear 1080P Video The Full HD 1080P resolution delivers sharp, detailed footage, ensuring you don’t miss a thing. Whether it’s checking on your pets, monitoring a caregiver, or keeping an eye on your property, the clarity is impressive for such a tiny camera. 📶 Stable WiFi & Flexible Connectivity One of the standout features is its stable WiFi connection, which rarely drops. But what’s even better? It records to an SD card even without WiFi, so you’ll never lose footage. The three connectivity options (local SD storage, direct app connection, and remote access) give you total control—whether you’re at home or halfway across the world. 🕵️♂️ Stealthy & Easy to Hide The ultra-compact, DIY design means you can place it anywhere—a bookshelf, a corner of the room, or even outdoors. It’s so small and discreet that no one will suspect it’s there. Perfect for covert monitoring without drawing attention. 🔋 Battery-Powered & Portable With battery power (300mAh), it’s portable and easy to move around. The 70-90 minute working time is decent for short-term monitoring, and you can keep it charging while in use for continuous operation. 📹 Smart Motion Detection & Alerts The motion detection feature is a lifesaver. It triggers recording and alerts when movement is detected, so you’re always in the loop. No more sifting through hours of empty footage—just the important moments. 💾 Local Storage & Easy Playback Supports up to 256GB Micro SD cards (not included), so you can store days of footage without worrying about cloud subscriptions. Playback is a breeze—just pop the card into your computer or use the user-friendly app to review clips. 🌙 Limitations to Note No night vision—this camera won’t work in complete darkness, so it’s best for well-lit areas. Battery life is limited (70-90 minutes), so for 24/7 monitoring, you’ll need to keep it plugged in. 💡 Who Is This For? ✅ Parents who want a nanny cam to check on caregivers. ✅ Pet owners who need to monitor their furry friends while away. ✅ Homeowners looking for discreet security in hallways, living rooms, or even outdoors. ✅ Small business owners who need affordable, reliable surveillance for retail stores or offices. 🎯 Final Verdict For its size, price, and feature set, the HiSpyCam Mini Camera is a fantastic investment. It’s easy to set up, highly functional, and incredibly discreet. The 1080P video, motion detection, and flexible storage options make it a top-tier choice for anyone needing a hidden camera without breaking the bank. Highly recommended!

exactly what I needed for the nursery
Bought this for the nursery, been running it about two weeks now. Setup was fine, took me like 15 min and I'm not techy at all. My husband ended up doing the actual mounting bc the cord is shorter than it looks in the pics, we had to move the outlet strip closer to where we wanted the camera. Video's actually pretty clear, better than I thought for the price honestly. App notifications work, sometimes get a false alert if the ceiling fan is on but that's on me not the camera lol. Haven't tested night vision much yet since her room isn't ever fully dark (nightlight) but from the couple times I checked it looked fine, a little grainy but you can see everything you need to. Wifi has dropped like once, maybe twice, reconnected itself both times without me doing anything so no complaints there. The manual is translated a little rough, took some trial and error to figure out the motion sensitivity settings in the app. Would I buy again - absolutely yeah. Does the job.
