I use a Wemo WDC010. Wemo is stopping support for their HomeKit products in January but the doorbell will still work. You can still buy them on eBay. Note: I was not able to successfully add the doorbell to the Home app on my phone (iOS 26.0.1) but was successful using my iPad (iPadOS 26.0.1). My previous WDC010 was added to my iPhone Home app no problem with an older version of iOS.
r/HomeKit • Any good doorbells that work with existing chime and no subscription? ->Works well when it works, a lot of people get constant “not responding” in HomeKit from it, but I found the solution to that (saw it on Reddit somewhere actually) was to restrict the device’s access to the internet (WAN) without restricting access to your local network (LAN) assuming you have a HomeKit hub. This did wonders for me, but your router has to have support for it.
r/HomeKit • Wemo Smart Video Doorbell ->Really like mine. Occasionally needs a reboot but otherwise works well and fully supports HKSV
r/HomeKit • HomeKit wired doorbell with HKSV that works with existing mechanical chime? ->Used wemo belkin may fit your needs but the transformer needs to be powerful enough or else it gets glitchy
r/HomeKit • Inexpensive doorbell camera ->Mine has worked pretty well for last couple years! Didn’t need to do anything special like blocking internet access. Does need an occasional reset once every few months but I got it for $60 used so can’t complain too much.
r/HomeKit • Inexpensive doorbell camera ->The Wemo works great with Homekit. My biggest issue with it is it goes offline by itself all of the time. It happens at least once every 6-8 weeks. I've seen complaints from others. I don't think it's the network, since it's mounted with 20feet of the router. It can be fixed by removing the tiny screw at the bottom, hitting the reset button, then remounting. Then you run the risk of dropping the tiny screw that holds it in place. I received extra screw, and haven't used it yet. I do like that it uses the existing chime.
r/HomeKit • Wemo Smart Video Doorbell vs Logitech Circle View Doorbell ->Have had Wemo over 2 years with no issues. The biggest things to consider is wifi signal at your doorbell and updating your transformer.
r/HomeKit • Wemo Smart Video Doorbell vs Logitech Circle View Doorbell ->Same here - no reboots or freezes observed, everything’s been pretty seamless except for package detection, brown boxes don’t contrast super well with my wooden porch so this feature doesn’t really work for us.
r/HomeKit • HomeKit wired doorbell with HKSV that works with existing mechanical chime? ->I’ve got a Logitech and I’ve been happy with it. I just wish it had typical night sight instead of 3 LED lights showing at night. It looks kinda odd having these bright lights on my porch. Otherwise I’ve been happy with it. I tried the Wemo but I hated the view. They made the fisheye extreme and it looks like a funhouse mirror every time someone comes to the door. They did it to technically get a bigger picture, but it wasn’t working for me. Plus it sticks out significantly more from the wall. So, between the two, I’d go with Logitech.
r/HomeKit • Wemo Smart Video Doorbell vs Logitech Circle View Doorbell ->I can recommend AGAINST the Belkin Wemo doorbell camera. I bought it thinking I was upgrading from an old DBell (pre-HomeKit) but it disconnects so often and records so little that I regret buying it. I also invested in an Aqara door lock and several of their cameras and wouldn’t really recommend. The setup can be fiddly, their app gives me the creeps and the cameras are constantly going offline. I had a Schlage zwave deadbolt that I liked but wanted HomeKit support. I wish I’d waited for Schlage to support HomeKit keys instead (they do now).
r/HomeKit • Best Security Cameras, Doorbell & Doorlock For Apple HomeKit ->That’s pretty much every single HK Doorbell. Haven’t heard great things about the Logitech Circle View with temperature issues and Belkin WeMo has constant permanent connection issues (that I think I fixed but can’t conclusively say yet) My Aqara G2H Pro frequents disconnects but always regains after a few minutes
r/HomeKit • Doorbell Suggestions! ->Once I banned my Belkin WeMo Video Doorbell from internet access (LAN-only), it’s been working perfectly. No more permanent disconnection issues.
r/HomeKit • So, all doorbells suck? ->Yes, I have one. It’s famous for having permanent offline issues with HomeKit after a period of time, but this can be fixed by setting your router to block access to the WAN/internet and keep the camera LAN-only.
r/HomeKit • Wemo Smart Video Doorbell ->Belkin WeMo here. Once I blocked it from accessing the internet (LAN-only), it’s been working just fine. Before though it would regularly and reliably go offline permanently and require physically removing and resetting to fix… only for it to happen again a week or two later
r/HomeKit • HomeKit Secure Video wired doorbell ->WeMo requires blocking it from internet access (LAN only) to work, otherwise it goes permanently offline after about a week
r/HomeKit • Inexpensive doorbell camera ->My wemo is fine. I like when someone rings it notifies you on Apple TV and HomePods. Also like it tells you who it is - when it works. I don’t like that if I try to see the video feed from the notification I have to sit there for a minute. It’s not instantaneous. I would switch to whatever others found more reliable.
r/HomeKit • Are HomeKit compatible doorbells worth it? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
