Pick Kemo Pro if

You are looking for an affordable home security camera system and are willing to tolerate occasional connectivity issues and potentially poor customer service for the low price point R3.

Pick Cleanup if

  15. [R64] Cleanup 2/5 · US Free version is useless: I spent an hour trying to select duplicates, and in the end it can only delete 5 photos a day.
