How to Capture Family Memories All Day Long

| By

The Logitech Circle Home Security Camera is the most fun way to keep your family and home safe.

Not only can you watch and talk to your kids, pets and other family members live during the day from wherever you are, but the camera also captures every moment of fun and excitement.

How to Capture Family Memories All Day Long


 

At the end of the day, you can easily download individual clips of time or watch a high-speed summary of the day.

We received a sample Logitech Circle to test out and we had a blast watching the video recordings. We’re also giving away a Logitech Circle, so keep reading…

Capture Every Holiday Moment

The Logitech Circle is perfect for saving all those spontaneous, magical holiday moments. There’s so much going on during the Christmas holidays, it can be too easy to forget to pick up your video camera and capture the memories.

But now you can let Circle save all those fun family memories for you.

When your kids start tearing open all those Christmas gifts faster than you can say “smile”, you can relax knowing that you can watch and save the clips later.

Surprise Your Pets and Kids

Using the Logi Circle app on your smartphone, you can watch and talk live in real-time to your kids, pets and other family members from wherever you are.

Imagine how surprised your dog or cat will be when you suddenly start talking to him from the Circle camera during the day when you’re not home. And what a thrill for both you and your kids to have you virtually join in for a little chat on your work lunch hour.

Videos of REAL Life

I think these are some of the most “real” videos you’ll ever take. LOL

The camera records everything you and your family does and says… so it can be pretty funny watching the videos later.

Here’s a fun look at my kids playing with Janice’s dog. You can hear Janice laughing in the background as Julia jumps over the dog and he just sits there patiently as she does jumps a second time.

As you can see, the camera records both sound and video, so you really can relive the memories whether you were there or not.

The app automatically splits the footage into clips about 3 or 4 minutes long, so you can easily download short clips and if you want you can then send them to a friend to watch or put them together into a longer movie.

This video shows a clip with Julia and Sophia decorating our Christmas tree.

I saved one of the clips from the Logitech Circle, added it to iMovie, set it to double speed and added some background music.

How It Works

Circle gives you peace of mind as it protects your home with always-on surveillance and mobile alerts.

It has unlimited 1080p HD video with night vision, smart motion filtering and smart alerts. You can see and capture HD video, anytime, from as many devices as you want.

Each camera has a 135-degree wide-angle glass lens, unlimited streaming 1080p HD video and night vision.

You get 24 hours of secure AES 256 Bit dual layer encrypted cloud storage for free, and you can pay for a premium subscription to get more secure storage options and advanced alerts.

Thanks for the Memories

  26. I’d like to monitor my home for safety, security, and fun. My house was broken into and robbed a little less than a year ago and can’t afford to buy cameras myself. It’d also be fun to capture moments with my kids to watch with them when they get older.

  28. We would use the Logitech Circle to monitor a detached garage i.e. would place in window pointing toward garage !

  35. I’d like to be able to check on my 89 year old mother, who has several health problems, while I am away.

  46. I would like to catch a picture of the black bear that climbs a tree next to the house to try to reach the bird feeder

  48. It would be fun to capture my daughter intently playing with her dollhouse and making up stories for the dolls.

  49. I would love to capture my daughter’s adorable mannerisms and babbling as she learns about the world around her, as well as the sweet tender moments when she checks in with mom for a reassuring hug or approval. I know once she is grown I would love to look back on some home video of her young days

  52. I’d like to see how my dog manages to knock down a child proof gate which is supposed to keep her out of the back side of the house.

  55. I’d love to capture my pets while we are not home. I am thoroughly convinced that they have parties.

  57. I would love to capture our family moments together. We just lost another family member last year. I’m getting older and would like to leave more memories for the “smaller” ones to look back at. We have family in Indiana, Texas and Oklahoma and get to get together about once a year, which we are greatful for. This camera would be awesome. Thanks for the chance.

  59. I’d love to capture the celebrations we have with family and friends for the memories and would love to see what our pets do while we aren’t home .

  73. Last year a neighbor had his car stolen and I’ve also had a package stolen. I would like to catch who possibly took my package by setting up this camera and a fake package.

  75. I like that this has night vision. I think that would be helpful in situations with less than ideal light.

  76. I would most like to capture my dog while im at doctor appts. He has separation anxiety from me and my brother- who i live with- says my furbaby goes absolutely crazy! There were two times earlier this year that i was admitted to the hospital. The 1st time i came home after 3 days and it looked like a tornado went through the house and hes only a 17lb shih tzu. I couldnt believe the damage he did.

  89. There are SO many times that our two-year old will say or do something HILARIOUS but we dont have our phone or camera out.

How cool is that?

  92. Since having a baby we cant afford to send theo to doggy camp, would love to monitor my fur baby.

  93. I think it’s funny that we all want to watch our dogs! I wonder if the tables were turned if they would be so amused by watching us. 🙂

  94. It seems like a great way to protect your home. I would like it because it would serve a duel purpose in protecting those that I love and also helping record our most precious moments.

  99. I would like to capture my 3 daughters playing together. They are so cute to watch!

  122. Would use this to check on household pets. Would also come in handy to give peace of mind that everything is safe, when I’m gone.

  126. I would love to capture the pets and animals out on our back deck with the Logitech Circle!

  236. Admiring the persistence you put into your blog and detailed
    information you present. It’s awesome to come across a blog every once in a while that
    isn’t the same outdated rehashed information. Excellent read!

    I’ve bookmarked your site and I’m adding your RSS feeds to my Google account.

  237. I would like to capture my cat because he has been under the weather lately. Thanks for the chance!

  239. Right now we live a semi bad neighborhood and thieves have been stealing mail and packages of our porches.

  240. Honestly, I would absolutely LOVE to win a Logitech Circle in order to watch what is going on with my two young daughter’s throughout the day. My world revolves around my girls (my amazing wife included) and I am always dealing with the heartache of not always being there to share in special moments with them. I have a good job and it allows me to give my wife time to be with the kids longer and nourish all of their curiousity and needs in our home. To do so though, I must work a lot and that also means often traveling. Therefore my working to provide for the family means that I have less time at home. Hopefully this is temporary but it is utter torture at times, as I am sure you can imagine. We are blessed with a wonderful 5 year old daughter and just recently added our beautiful 10 week old baby girl. These are times of great developmental strides and I sometimes am unable to be present for some important moments. The stories are nice and I cherish every moment I have with the girls but, as most parents are aware, sometimes great things happen that simply cannot be replicated in quite the same way after they have happened. And little ones can often be shy about saying or doing things that would become lasting memories in a parent’s eyes. Another difficult thing os to grab for the phone to record those moments when the happen as it usually seems just a bit too late to capture the moment by the time you hit “record”. Alas, I would love the opportunity to relive some of these wonderful times while I work to keep my family happy. I would be so thankful to be able to watch and re-watch those great things when I can and not just have to hear about them later. I would use the Logitech Circle to capture those living room memories forever and not be afraid of missing those most important moments that any parent would love to live over and over again.

    Thank you! Happy Holidays everyone!

  251. It would be nice to capture moments and not have to worry about keeping your camera handy, It looks like an easy way to keep those memories going

  299. I would like to capture anyone prowling around my home. Actually, I hope there never are any prowlers, but you really don’t know without a camera. I’d also like to keep an eye on my garden in the summer to see what little creatures are messing with my plants.

  318. I would love to capture my sons in the middle of the night! Catch who is really eating my chocolate!

  326. I would love to capture my pets when I am away on vacation and family moments at the holidays.
