Resurfacing this from Oct 2023 - since then nations have failed to push for a credible post-Hamas Palestinian state & the US has enabled Israel to use that as an excuse for escalating the death toll & allowing expansionist voices in government. Truly awful on all counts. https://continuations.com/israelgaza

Why are trail cams such a mess? Terrible software. Either wifi or cellular but not both. No RTSP support. No APIs. Someone please make a quality product.
