I just wanted to chime in that there are Groupons currently available for a lot of different Foscams. The basic one you linked to is sold out but the upgraded one is currently available for $89.99.</p> <p>Thanks for posting this question as I have been going back and forth on which one to order. I will be following this to see what the consensus is :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-foscam-camera-to-buy-basic-one-or-upgraded-one-suggestions#post-1752982 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 12:58:15 +0000 Alivoo01 1752982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We received the upgraded one, and I like it! However, I'm not sure what the differences are so I can't chime in if the features I use are worth it or not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-foscam-camera-to-buy-basic-one-or-upgraded-one-suggestions#post-1752901 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 12:27:40 +0000 lawbee11 1752901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the basic one and it's been great! (But then again I don't really know what I'm missing out on since it's all we've ever used.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-foscam-camera-to-buy-basic-one-or-upgraded-one-suggestions#post-1752893 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 12:22:17 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1752893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not voting, but I know DH purchased the upgraded one. Not sure why though, its his department :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-foscam-camera-to-buy-basic-one-or-upgraded-one-suggestions#post-1752814 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 11:57:13 +0000 MrsKoala 1752814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've got the basic model and it works great. You can access it via app. I've never wished that it had any upgraded capabilities. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-foscam-camera-to-buy-basic-one-or-upgraded-one-suggestions#post-1752660 Fri, 11 Jul 2014 10:56:26 +0000 cranberryapple 1752660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So we're pretty sure we're going to buy a Foscam and use it as a baby monitor, but we're not sure which one to choose. Would you recommend the basic model, or the one with more extra features. Did you use all of the fancy extras? There's a $30 price difference currently, which isn't too bad. Or is there a particular Foscam model you would recommend? Thanks for your input! I bet we're gonna wish we had gotten this for Baby#1! </p> <p>Basic one:<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Foscam-FI8910W-Network-Camera-Two-Way/dp/B006ZP8UOW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1405093787&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=foscam" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Foscam-FI8910W-Network-Camera-Two-Way/dp/B006ZP8UOW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1405093787&#038;sr=8-1&#038;keywords=foscam</a></p> <p>The one with more features:<br /> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Foscam-FI9821W-Megapixel-Wireless-Camera/dp/B00F3KWZW8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1405093971&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=foscam" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Foscam-FI9821W-Megapixel-Wireless-Camera/dp/B00F3KWZW8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1405093971&#038;sr=8-2&#038;keywords=foscam</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-app-do-you-use-with-your-foscam-cameras#post-1422671 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 21:21:54 +0000 JoJoGirl 1422671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby Monitor :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-app-do-you-use-with-your-foscam-cameras#post-1422668 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 21:21:27 +0000 Beehive 1422668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MapleMoose: Yep, you can move the camera from the browser. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-app-do-you-use-with-your-foscam-cameras#post-1422660 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 21:19:59 +0000 dolphin 1422660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use Cam viewer too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-app-do-you-use-with-your-foscam-cameras#post-1422653 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 21:18:53 +0000 MapleMoose 1422653@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yin: Haven't heard of that one.

I could zoom and otherwise control the camera from both my phone or from the web browser. I could also take pictures and video (I'm not sure if I could take video from the web browser, but I could from the phone app). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-app-do-you-use-with-your-foscam-cameras#post-1422440 Thu, 13 Feb 2014 20:46:28 +0000 MapleMoose 1422440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Beehive: Are you able to control the camera from the web browser?
