Hi @harleymann777, 

There's no setting to increase the volume on our cameras, but it should still be audible when you are near it. I would be curious to learn more about your specific situation to help with further troubleshooting. Which camera are you experiencing a low volume with? Is the volume low when viewing recordings/livestreams in the app, or is its speaker quiet? How far away is the subject from the camera?

My camera volume is very low also! Hard to hear. Can it be replaced for one that works correctly?

I have two recently installed cameras. One is much louder than the other. Unfortunately, the low volume one is at my front door and people are straining to hear me. The other is mounted very high on the second floor… maybe someday I’ll swap them.

My camera also has very low volume. Is there any way to replace it with one that actually works?

@nshaw How close is your phone to your camera when you notice this? If your phone is close to the camera echo cancellation will occur, which can make the audio seem quieter. We recommend moving your phone at least 50 feet away from the camera and then test the audio again. 

 

We also recommend looking at the microphone and clearing it of any dust and debris that may be impacting the audio.
