  1. I just picked up what appears to be the eufycam (1) at Home Depot yesterday. Black friday sale at $269.00. But i’m still confused as to features. The manual inside says it is compatible with homekit. And it came with 1 entry sensor. I was also surprised at the price which made me wonder if it was a special bundle. Any thoughts?

    • I believe I found the deal on Home Depot’s website and from what I can see, it appears to be the first generation (Kickstarter) system. Does the manual explicitly state that it is compatible with HomeKit? That would be interesting, especially since they haven’t released the HomeKit update for version 2 of the camera yet.

  2. There’s chatter about the lack of HomeKit for v1 users online right now — as in “they promised it, but never delivered.” I’d love to see a copy of the manual that states HomeKit compatibility. Being invested in lots of v1 equipment — I’ll warn you about empty promises. If history is a lesson v2 won’t include HomeKit either.
