Just got this "security" camera

I bought this new Logitech Circle Cam. I don't know if it's really fair to call it a security device, though I suppose being able to see that someone broke into your home while you were gone might help the police somewhat. It records 24 hours worth of video. It can also give you a 30 second speeded up recap of everything it saw since midnight. If it records sound, I haven't yet figured out how you'd turn that on. Logitech hasn't provided any manuals or documentation yet so their on-line forum is starting to fill up with questions from people like me. I assume those things will come eventually. They advertise this as "Your home life is happening. Enjoy every incredible moment." Well, our home life is usually pretty boring, but I can see how it might be more useful for someone with pets or kids at home while they are gone, though if it really doesn't record sound, that's missing an important part. We'll use this when we are off on vacation just so we can see that the power is still on and no pipes have broken..

We have a motion activated camera which we use to spy on our cats and their buddies.

We thought to buy one to monitor our home when we are on vacation. I have to check what is available on the market.
