I’ve tried a bunch of hidden cameras from AliExpress and Amazon, but no luck so far. They’re all either low quality or the apps are terrible. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good quality hidden camera?
Why go for hidden cameras for home defense? I’d rather have mine out in the open to prevent someone from getting inside in the first place. Is there a specific reason you’re after hidden ones? I’m curious, I might learn something new here.

One reason I’ve heard is catching a cheating partner for proof in court.

I get that, but this sub is more about home defense. Catching a cheater is a whole different thing!

My dad’s a 90-year-old blind veteran, and we have a caregiver coming by a few hours a day. I’ve had a couple of them steal from me, and I even found one hiding random things like shampoo in weird spots. This is why I’m looking for a hidden camera, to keep an eye on things when I’m not around.

Please thank your dad for his service. I’d recommend Blink cameras—they’re small, Wi-Fi enabled, and run on batteries. But just a heads up, if you’re secretly recording someone without them knowing, it might cause some legal issues. Maybe consider having them sign a form that says there are cameras in all rooms except for the bathroom. I once had to fire someone for covering a camera with a band-aid at work, and the footage caught every part of him doing it, right from unwrapping the band-aid to sticking it on the camera!
I’ve got this cam and it works great: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLnMtLM8YMc
