In the app you have enabled an option that rings your iphone when someone presses the button on the doorbell. It's like a phone call. and you should be able to see a screenshot of who pressed before answering. Disable it if you don't like it.

Link works for me.
Just a thought: I know of one user here who does 24/7 recording to his SD-Card. Here is something to try in Batch Config. Tool:
So good question, so this I know, I have turned off my Internet connection at my Router and tested PIR recording to the Doorbell and it works. As far as if it works if the Doorbell is no longer connected to a WiFi Hotspot/Router/AP, will it continue to record locally?, I would assume yes, but you are the one that can answer that. In Batch Config. Tool you can see your SD Card recordings under Storage/File you just have to set a Date Range, you can even download your Recordings from there too, but of course you will need to connect to the Doorbell via a Network (Router/AP) to use the Batch Config. Tool otherwise you will have to pull the SD-Card to read it. You may consider setting up a cheap WiFi router that the Doorbell connects to but of course does not have Internet access, that way you can get to the Doorbell, via the Batch Config. Tool to access the SD-Card Recordings.
, there seems to be at least one guy in every neighborhood that has no security setup . Also another thought is Comcast (ISP), has Hotspots that are free to their customers, so if I wanted to connect to someone's Comcast/Xfinity Modem I could. This was before Cell Phones. Yeah worked for me too, figured I would supply him with the URL.
What transformer do you have?
Did ezviz change something recently (like in the past week) that makes it so a Hik-Connect account can’t share to a new Ezviz account? I linked my ezviz-branded/firmware camera to Hik-Connect so that I could get it into Hik i2p/p2p/platform (all my other cams are Hik so iVMS will now show all cams). I then share my cam to a 2 week old ezviz account without issue. Then I created a new ezviz account for my spouse and I’m unable to share my camera from Hik to ezviz now.
I am using an Elk 24 VAC 40 VA resetting transformer. I have been using this for both the front and rear doorbells without issue for over a year. I sometimes do notice they lose video signal for a short time when the doorbell is pressed, but I have never experienced this odd issue in BI. When this happens, the video looks fine in HIK Connect, but BI just seems to have an odd view until I reset the camera. This has stumped me for a few months and I can’t get a response from BI support. Thanks for the help!
Yup, posted it a few weeks ago. Not just when the doorbell button was pushed but when just viewing. Factory resetting the DB seems to have fixed it.
Try having your family members creating their own account and link it to your account with the share function in the app.
We did create an ezviz acct for spouse but sharing with that email from Hik-connect said account didn’t exist. It’s like Hik-connect no longer knows about new ezviz accounts.
I see that option enabled but when the doorbell bell is pressed there is no screenshot. Maybe there is a delay, I’ll have to mess with it..
Thank you. I’ve been trying to figure out how to get camera past bricks so I can see my entire staircase.
Yes, ezviz won't allow other apps/accounts access ezviz resources. you need ezviz account. they changed this 1-2 months ago, some users reported the warning when they accessed their DB1 through Hik-Connect or Guarding Vision.
If the camera has to point more to the left, to the staircase, why did you use the wall mount that tilts it to the right? doesn't make much sense. did you try with the normal one?
Oddly enough it does make a difference. Using the flat mount actually had more of the brick in the picture and less of the stairs.
One user here did this:
Yeah that is what the goal is. I was hoping to 3D print an extended wedge.
Curious, did this happen with the latest BI update? I just updated mine a few days ago but so far have not noticed half view screen, but need to check my footage, just had a family gathering today so might of had a Doorbell pressed while we were all out back in our pool.Yup, posted it a few weeks ago. Not just when the doorbell button was pushed but when just viewing. Factory resetting the DB seems to have fixed it.
Partial Screen Displayed, not Full
My Hik Doorbell (Laview firmware ...doorbell is the same DB: Laview, EZviz, RCA, etc) camera was working fine for 8 months and then 2 weeks ago it started only displaying a part of the screen. I also have 9 Samsung cams (2 diff models) and they never have an issue. Is this a setting issue? It...ipcamtalk.com
, so no half screens, but did see some No Signal Captures, which I have Never seen before. So what changed on my end, well I did install a new AP this week, also the BI upgrade. I will have to do some checking on why this is occurring and I was just bragging to everyone today about my new AP 's
