Hey r/Botslab_Official,

Our software team is currently working on a UI update for the Botslab App home screen. Before we lock in the final design and push it to production, we want to hear directly from the people who actually use our cameras and dash cams every day.

We are currently testing two different design concepts for the device cards (see the attached comparison image), and we’d love your input.

Option A (Minimalist UI): Maximizes the video feed size. The controls (Snooze, Events, Settings) are subtle, transparent icons overlaid directly on the video to keep the interface clean.

Option B (Quick-Action UI): Features a dedicated white menu bar below the video. The buttons are separated with clear text labels for faster, more explicit navigation.

How to vote: Just drop an "A" or "B" in the comments.

Tell us about your use case: We don't just want a tally; we want to understand your UX preferences. From a usability standpoint, what makes your choice better for your daily routine? Do you prefer an unobstructed view of your front yard and driveway, or do you value having those settings instantly accessible without guessing what the icons mean?

Let us know what you think. We will be reading through the comments and taking your feedback straight back to our dev team. Let's build this together!

Last week, I bought a staghorn fern from a second-hand group for $10. I don't know what variety it is, but I really like it. After bringing it home, I soaked it in water for two hours, which seems like a bit too much water. Then I hung it on the balcony and haven't touched it since. How should I care for it next?

Hey everyone, we are excited to announce the newest camera in our lineup: the Window Cam W101. We are also incredibly proud that its design has just been recognized with a 2026 Red Dot Award.

We wanted to solve the hassle of drilling holes for outdoor cameras, so we built a dual-view camera that mounts directly to the inside of your window, giving you visibility both inside and outside simultaneously.

Here are the quick specs:

• Award-Winning Design: Officially recognized by the Red Dot Design Award for 2026.

• First Dual-View Design: Monitor two spaces at once without buying multiple cameras.

• 4MP Resolution: High-quality, crystal-clear footage for both lenses.

• Ultimate DIY Setup: We skipped the complicated mounting hardware. The installation is so straightforward and safe that a child could easily do it in a few minutes.

What do you guys think of the dual-view window mount concept? Let us know if you have any questions about the specs or the setup!

Hey r/Botslab,

When you hit the "Network Disconnected" error, the last thing you need is a maze of outdated support articles.

Our team just pushed a massive update to the Botslab Support Hub. We categorized the chaos into four main areas so you don't have to guess where to find the fix for your specific device: Initial Setup, Network Troubleshooting, Firmware Updates, and Video Tutorials.

Before we make this the permanent standard, we want the community to test it out. 👉Botslab Website Support Hub

If a tutorial is confusing, or if you still can't figure out how to update your Wi-Fi password without fully resetting your device, tell us below. We will be reading the comments and making adjustments based on what you actually need.
