The customer service group was willing to work with me to find a solution. It was nice to see someone try and support me as a customer. The app is easy to use and the device loads quickly to see my doorbell, which is better than another brand I tried before.

The quality of the cameras are excellent. Easy to use and easy to install. I live in a 3200 square feet home and the cameras have no issues connecting to my WiFi. Great product for the price!

Toucan Smart Home app works well for managing all my Toucan devices in one place. The live view is responsive and motion alerts are reliable. The smart lighting controls are a nice bonus. Would love to see more integration options in future updates.
App Store
Solid security camera app with good features. The two-way audio is clear and the siren alarm feature gives me peace of mind. The Alexa integration works flawlessly for viewing my doorbell camera on my Echo Show. Setup was straightforward.
App Store
I have multiple Toucan cameras and the doorbell, and this app manages them all seamlessly. The night vision on the outdoor camera is impressive, and the motion detection alerts are prompt. The ability to share access with my wife makes it perfect for family use.
Google Play
Great app for managing Toucan smart home devices. The camera quality is excellent and the app is intuitive to use. I particularly like the scheduled lighting feature for my smart sconce lights. Only wish the cloud storage free tier was more generous.
Google Play
Love this app! I can monitor my front door from anywhere with the video doorbell. The pre-recorded greeting messages are a fun feature when I'm not home. The motion detection recordings have actually helped catch a package thief in my neighborhood.
Google Play
Using Toucan cameras for about a year now. The app has gotten much better with recent updates. The emergency call button is a great safety feature. Battery life on the outdoor camera could be better, but the app itself works reliably.
Google Play
Simple and effective home security app. I have the indoor camera and doorbell, and both work perfectly through the app. The two-way talk feature on the doorbell is clear and responsive. Google Home integration lets me check my cameras on my Nest Hub.
Google Play
The Toucan app handles multiple devices well. I appreciate the color-changing smart light controls and the ability to set schedules. The camera live feed loads quickly and the motion clips are well-organized in the events timeline.
