iON the Home Wi-Fi Video Camera

Ion the Home Wi-Fi security camera gives you free cloud storage

The Ion the Home Wi-Fi camera challenges the fee-based cloud storage status quo with a free, rolling 24-hour video-clip-saving option.

Ion's $130, £150 Ion the Home security camera is an entry-level camera with a free cloud storage option.

Ion plans to add alert functionality to its Ion the Home camera eventually; in the meantime, you'll have to monitor your live feed 24/7 to get any real security benefits.

Looks nice but does not work

The iON did not work as expected. The sound worked rarely and intermittently and the microphone did not work ever. The camera continually went offline and could not be reliable. I did call customer service for advice and was told it was my internet. I...
