The Best Indoor Security Cameras of 2025

If you need a smart indoor camera loaded with features that offers some of the best video quality we've tested, you can't go wrong with the Kasa Spot KC400.

It's one of the few models in our guide that records in 2K resolution instead of the standard 1080p. Though it doesn't have color night vision, the black-and-white view is incredibly sharp in the dark and can detect motion up to 30 feet away.

Another major perk to this camera is that it is capable of nonstop video recording, so you can feel secure about your indoor space even when you're away on a long vacation.

It supports local storage via a microSD card (up to 256 GB). Cloud storage is also available for up to 30 days via a Kasa Care Plan. The indoor Kasa Spot Cam is capable of recognizing people, motion, and sound (including a crying baby), and sending informative push alerts so that you don't have to check in with the app for every notification. In the Kasa app, you can create activity zones. This can help prevent false alerts if there's a particular area you want the camera to watch over.

It works well with Alexa and Google Assistant to pull up the live stream on a compatible smart display. The Kasa app also is quick at loading the camera's live feed and the audio quality is excellent.

The Cync Indoor Camera 1080p camera records clear video, and there was no delay when we tested out the camera’s two-way talk capabilities. Like most smart security cameras, you can use Alexa or Google Assistant to stream the live feed to an Amazon Echo or Nest smart display, but you can’t communicate with the camera using either smart display (and it is not compatible with Apple HomeKit).

We like the built-in camera shutter for added privacy, but you can't toggle the shield from the app—you have to physically move the shutter, which decreases the privacy value of the camera if you have it mounted in a hard-to-reach spot. The camera, however, is quick to detect motion and alerts you immediately to events.

The camera comes with a 30-day free trial to Cam Cync, a paid subscription that gets you 14 days of unlimited clip storage. With the monthly plan, you can also filter clips by motion, sound, or people, and download clips to share with friends and family as well. Account security features like end-to-end encryption for cloud storage and two-factor authentication are available with the Cync app. Local storage is also available using the camera’s microSD card slot.

During our testing, the companion app ran slower on iOS than on Android, but once everything loaded it was easy to access all the camera has to offer. The slow app is a bit of a nuisance and we wish the shutter could be controlled remotely, but overall the camera performs well, offers features to keep your account secure, and integrates nicely with the Cync smart home ecosystem.

The WiZ Indoor Security Camera does a good job of watching over the interior of your home, sending timely alerts and recording in clear, 1080p HD video. It’s a solid indoor security camera with good features and is best used in conjunction with other WiZ smart home devices.

It has a 120-degree field of vision and works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri shortcuts. It comes with a USB power cable but no plug—a minor inconvenience, but one to be aware of. The camera can detect motion, people, and objects without a paid subscription plan and does not require a hub for use.

The camera connects in the WiZ V2 app. (There are two WiZ smart home apps, so make sure you choose the right one.) We found the app mostly easy to use, but it took us some getting used to. You can also use voice assistants to control the camera for functions like turning it on and off.

This camera is unique because, with the right setup, it uses WiZ's SpaceSense technology, which turns your WiZ smart bulbs into motion sensors. In turn, when motion is detected, the bulbs can be set up to turn on to help alert or deter whoever or whatever is there. The downside is that this technology only works with WiZ products. It does not have a built-in siren like our top pick.

During our testing, we found the motion detection to be accurate, and the video quality looks good. It offers infrared night vision, which many indoor security cameras do not have. The two-way audio is loud and clear, too, allowing you to communicate remotely with anyone in the room.

The Swann Tracker includes plenty of features, but unfortunately also forces users to deal with some frustrating communication delays and issues with settings. The camera light refused to shut off when it was supposed to at times, and there was also some lag in terms of live viewing. During the initial setup, the camera failed to make a connection until multiple restarts were performed.

On the plus side, the Tracker boasts excellent 1080p video, a 180-degree field of view, and an abundance of local storage (a whopping 2TB) to keep all the hours of footage that you need.

It can't be used for outdoor surveillance, but using it inside will net you automatic pan and zoom features as well as two-way audio, night vision with an infrared view, and automatic motion tracking.

The camera's design is intriguing, resembling something like a lollipop. Its app is easy to use, but the Tracker suffers significant lag in its two-way communication. We also experienced some frustration when changing settings in the app, because there were times that our alterations weren’t saved.

If you need a basic indoor camera, the Alexa-only Blink Mini is worth considering. It doesn’t offer a continuous live stream or web viewing, but it reliably tracks motion and you can see all events in the Blink app. It lacks preview alerts, a convenient feature that allows you to quickly view the motion event without opening the companion app. It also doesn’t alert you to different types of motion events, like people or animals. The push notifications are sent as general motion alerts, so you have to open up the app for a better look at what’s going on.

On the upside, this camera is uber small and lightweight, making it easy to set up and install just about anywhere at home. You can pull up the camera’s live stream on an Echo Show display, but it doesn’t work with Google Home or Apple HomeKit. It’s got a 110-degree field of view, which is on the small side for a home security camera.

But it offers desirable app security features, like two-factor authentication and email alerts when a new login is made. A paid subscription plan is available, though a free trial is included with your purchase.

If you’re on a budget and need a cheap security camera, the Blink Mini will suffice, but don’t expect anything luxurious.

The Canary Pro is a stout home security camera that has an impressive 147-degree field of view and records in standard 1080p HD video. Overall, the setup is fairly simple, though creating your account and enabling two-factor authentication cannot be done from the app and must be done from a web browser instead.

We were able to get the camera connected to Alexa and pull up a live stream on an Echo Show smart display, but we could not get it to integrate with Google Home. The 1080p video is clear both day and night, but we found the audio to be muffled and hard to understand.

A Canary Premium Subscription is required to access features like a 30-day video history (Canary offers end-to-end video encryption and encrypted cloud storage), two-way talk, and intelligent alerts like person detection. It’s one of the more expensive plans in our guide, but to help ease the cost, a free, one-year trial is included with the purchase, adding some extra value.

In addition to video, the camera can also keep tabs on the air quality inside of your home, sending alerts when the air quality is bad or the humidity is too high.

There’s also a built-in siren and access to emergency services, giving this camera more of a DIY home security system feel than most indoor cameras.

The Nooie Cam 360 is a budget-friendly indoor home security camera that features motion tracking and, as the name implies, 360-degree rotation. The camera is equipped with a 1080p HD lens and two 940nm infrared LEDs. It has other smart camera features like two-way audio functionality, night vision, and a status light indicator that can be toggled on or off.

This camera excels at tracking motion and detecting sound, but it’s sensitive on default settings. It’s easy to adjust the sensitivity of these alerts in the Nooie app, however..

Push notifications come promptly, but there are no photo or video preview options for you to quickly check and see what’s happening. Paid cloud storage is available if you don’t want to use a microSD card to back up your camera’s event history.

There’s no support for Apple HomeKit, but the Nooie Cam 360 easily integrates with Amazon Echo and Google Home.

You can pull up the live stream and audio using a smart display like the Echo Show 5 or the Nest Hub Max.
