I have a DropCam Pro that has been serving me faithfully for many years. Recently, I lost the ability to enable/disable notification in the Nest App. I submitted a post on the support forums and a few others spoke up who are experiencing similar issues. I was eventually contact from a support team via email.
Our Engineering support responded. They stated that the dropcams are no longer receiving any firmware update and the Nest app is up to date that's why the push notification for the dropcam no longer responds.
So that’s it. Planned obsolescence strikes again. It’s disappointing because otherwise it’s a fine camera, but now does nothing to notify me of activity or my dog barking while I’m away.
I’ve been checking out the Circle View camera on Apple’s website; anyone have firsthand experience with that camera? Would be curious to know your thoughts.
