[QUOTE="Doc Hudson, post: 477022, member: 1607"] I can see a practical application for visual / audio doorbell response to check who's calling while you are still at home, but I really don't see how if you are not there it would be any advantage at all. As Richard says, unless you are in an environment with good reliable fast internet access, so the connection on your phone wont break up, freeze, drop out, the transmission delays will be so obvious to anyone outside the door that they will know you are not at home anyway! However if the person at home was elderly or has restricted agility or wheelchair bound, (or healthy fit person doing jobs in the back garden when you may not normally hear your doorbell), if the door goes, they could answer check who it is and ask them to "please wait for a minute or so and I am on my way to the door" as most delivery drivers are walking back down the drive is there is no prompt answer.
