Title: HomeKit Secure Video
Post by: jts1084 on June 03, 2019, 08:55:22 PM

In February 2017, when asked whether there were plans for the Omna 180 camera to support iCloud video recording, an engineer replied, "Apple did not incorporate iCloud recording in any of their HomeKit cameras due to security and overhead (at this time). Hopefully in the future but it will not be anytime soon."

Well, it's only been two years and four months since that post, but Apple did finally announce such a feature today.  I know that Apple did not name D-Link as one of its early partners for the feature, but might the Omna 180 gain the ability down the road?  Is it even technically possible?

I sent an email to the camera group but I am not sure if they will add it to this camera.

Hi there,
I’m also very interested in seeing homekit secure video being added to the omna 180.
Is there an update on if/when this will be implemented?

Not sure why I didn't respond to this sooner....sorry about that.  This camera will not support Homekit Secure Video.
