This is the open-ended one. Setup photos, family stories, “what camera angle works best for the front door” — whatever fits.
Things that work well here
- Show your setup — share a photo of your camera phone mount, your favorite viewing spot, how you’ve integrated Oriel into your home
- Use cases we didn’t think of — people use cameras for pets, plants, deliveries, watching elderly parents, monitoring sick infants. Tell us yours
- Camera mode community wisdom — “what brand of phone holder works on uneven walls” type stuff
- Chats with the team — Steven (founder) reads this category personally
What doesn’t fit here
- Specific bug reports / setup problems → Help & Support
- Feature requests → Feature Requests
- Promotional content for products that compete with Oriel — gently, no
- Anything that violates Community Guidelines — please don’t
A note on tone
This forum is small and warm, hopefully for a long time. Posts that read like LinkedIn motivational quotes or AI-generated filler stand out badly. Just write like you’d talk to a person.
