Good video. I have 6 SpyPoint Cams and the best I can say is they sort of work but even yesterday one stopped working completely. They simply stop communicating with the app which makes me not want to put anymore out. Formatting card, changed card, updated firmware….same issue. I’ve had battery issues too so going to try a different brand moving forward. It’s a bummer because the video and picture are good…when it works

I just bought one of these cameras before watching this video. Got it into the field and had the same issues. Today, I went out and replaced the MicroSD card with a new one. Originally used a new 128 GB and formatted it with the button on the camera=no pics transmitted. Replaced it with a 32GB card and did NOT format it with the camera button (or at all). Installed the new card and immediately started getting pictures in my app. Got home and my laptop says first card was corrupted. My guess is the Spypoint FLEX camera is not correctly formatting the card for use.

I have a LINK-MICRO-S-LTE-V. I updated the firmware once. been working fine for almost a year now. The little solar panel keeps the battery at 100%. I have yet to see it below 100. I also have two LINK-MICRO-LTE's. Both work perfectly. I guess I'm just lucky I guess. I did put both on an external panel. I don't have to violate my food plots at all. Cheers from Louisiana.

I have had spypoint cameras in past few years and had good success with those. I bought one of the flex cameras couple months ago and from start up it would not get a signal althought all my other reveal cameras connect in same location. I finally got in touch with customer service and they first told me it needed updated but then stated it was up to date. They tried to get me to connect a few times and never would so they said to send it back and they would send me a new one. I received the new one and put it out last week. When I first put on the tree it sent a test picture so I put on tree and tried to get it to send a picture but it would not so I took off tree and it immediately send a few pictures. Put back on tree and left and it has not send another picture since. These cameras are junk!

I got the Flex S, works great when im there with it but as soon as i drive 100 yards away it doesnt want to work. Solar worked good for 1 day; added brand new AA batteries on install they dropped to 83% battery life in 20 minutes. Remote updating settings freezes the cam, instant photo/video does the same. Counting my losses and getting something different. Wish I would have came across this video before buying it.

I have one that takes a pic at every scheduled check in and sends it at the next check in. Another one does that sporadically. Yet another one starts taking pix at scheduled check in and doesn’t stop unless I set the delay to 1 hr. So, that one I have to set for scheduled uploads only and no instant uploads. Then there’s a 4th camera that won’t upload on a schedule because it uploads at every trigger although I have even set it to comunícate once a day. I have 2 more that seem to work the way they’re supposed to

They pack them together and sell them for a discount because they know one has a defect. Usually one will work fine however your supposed to get 100 Pic a month. Normally it never false triggers but all of a sudden it will just start blasting nothing shot till 100 to try and get you to buy more. I also notice it will often look like things in the image that go way over time. If you screen shot these images and compare them to whats on the card you will see it but when you look at that picture again from there app later it also will not look like the screen shot you took.

Im still running the old Spy Point cell cameras and only 1 out of the 3 that I own is working. Im taking it out of service as soon as my month is up because come to find out they have been taking the payment out of my bank account automatically even though I set the setting to the NO position for auto payment and monthly renewal. I was charged $15.15 for June and July when I wasn't using the cameras and didn't even know until my bank called and made sure they were authorized payments due to the fact they were paid to a Canadian company. The other thing that I just found out is that Spy Point has been charging me $15.15 instead of $15.00 every month and I didn't realize it until the bank mentioned the payment amount when they called me. I called them and they denied it even though I have it printed out from my bank where they have done it for the past 7 months. Im done with Spy Point mainly because of their service and customer service. Im doing what everyone has told me to do for the past year. Im switching to Tactacam’s REVEAL. I know this is a long comment, but it gave me a chance to vent lol

SPYPOINT off shored technical support to India. Communications is a challenge, firmware updates are often far to often and have (1) Flex and (2) standard cameras. When these work they work well, when you are out it is a hard out needing to deal with India Technical Support, which is challenging, hard and frustrating.

Terrible company behind the scenes. I bought my first camera in 2016. My camera was stolen. And spypoint would not help me locate the camera. Even though they had exact gps location. I then bought two more cameras in 2018. I didn’t set them up until 2022. And realized the issue. Both arrived with bad barcodes and did not work. Spypoint then wanted proof of purchase from two years ago. And would not replace or fix the issue. Wasted money. They are not a US company. They are a European company that does not care.

I concur. Have 2 flexs and their firmware update just wrecked one. Must of lost signal or power while updating and is now stuck like it's permanently buffering. Tried 3 cards and downloading from their site and nothing works. Also noticed their user manual is different than what you can actually do from the app or site. Says I can update or reset from the app or site in the manual but those things don't exist in the app or website. Have other spypoint cams and they hardly ever transmit photos and have to constantly go and check on them.

To add to my last comment, these cameras will eat lithium batteries up fast if you don't have 100% signal. 1 of my cameras had 90% signal and the Eveready AA lithium batteries lasted 4 weeks. I contacted Amazon and blamed them for selling fake Eveready batteries lol. $25 to $28 for 8 batteries and they only last 4 weeks? Not an economical way to run cameras so now im forced to use big external batteries. Im just not happy with Spy Point at all. Wow, 2 rants on 1 video comment section lol. Spy Point deserves it.

I have 4 link dark, 3 link micros and 4 Flex cameras .....Never had any issues with any of my cameras, some of my link dark are 5 years old...All my cameras are used for security purposes indoors and out, in Canada. No battery issues either....Even with a weak signal 25% in the red I have no issues with batteries or receiving instant photos... Reply

@@ethanguidry312 I mostly use Energizer Lithium. I have a few cameras on 12v battery hooked to a solar panel, they work great but they also don't get many photos at their locations. I wanted to buy the new Spypoint solar panel, 15,000mha but they are never in stock, thats a lot of juice for a cell cam....my other solar panels have built in Lithium storage of 2.5 mha which should last a long time but I just put one up last month so I can't say how well its working yet(Winghome) .....I have one linkdark and linkmicro with the built in solar panel and both have been working great over the last 5 and 1 year respectively...

Every time I see one of your videos the first thing I notice is you never say what kind of tech steps you have tried to get the cameras to work. You just complain and say you call them and they don't do anything for you. I have a feeling the cameras aren't the problem.

Well… we have followed ever recommendation of spy point, swapped SD cards, sent cameras backs, updated software, swapped batteries, and more. These are junk. I wouldn’t normally say that.. but these do not seem to last more than half a season.

It's awful when a company reaches the point where the employees are not associated with the product any more but just there for profit. Customer service has gone down across the board with many things. Obviously they made huge profits and are busy cruising on their yachts. Mine so far has been a battery eater!!!
