You don’t need a doorbell camera, get a regular camera instead.

You need an app which will receive events from a doorbell via a server to receive data to interface with the app. Both of those things need to be owned and operated by someone to be approved for use on the app store. That’s why a custom open source of doorbell as you envision it doesn’t exist and never will.

I guess, but not all app stores have the same restrictions… And there are open source ways of doing this, software anyway, maybe not with hardware.

Simple Google search of the original question, because I want to do the same thing, or at least self host a home security system.

I use Eufy doorbells, locks, and cameras. I realize they are a Chinese company, but that is almost unavoidable until the US gets back to actually manufacturing tech.

The reason I like Eufy is the local storage and no required subscription fees.

I use eufy as well. The only issue they recently had was that thumbnails were stored in their cloud if you chose to enable them on notifications. If you just select the text option, none of the footage is stored online and everything is local.

Isn’t this the company that not only got busted for uploading continuous footage but got caught publicly exposing that footage to anyone with VLC?

I if I am remembering correctly you should throw away the device immediately

I also can't see who took my package with a regular doorbell. But apparently having security cameras on your property is dystopian surveillance.

Having security cameras that malicious businesses sell so they can scrape your data and share it with the police is a dystopian nightmare.

Having your own security system that is only accessed by you and those you intentionally share it with is not.

If that is a big problem, one alternative is to get a post office box.

That’s seems like a good idea, considering the plethora of videos online of packages being stolen with an obvious camera watching the thieves.

You can use a Wyze Video Doorbell 1 and flash it with thingino firmware. Then hook it up to a Frigate home surveillance server.

Frigate can definitely run on a Pi. It can also integrate with Home Assistant which can run on a Pi. As for turning itself off when you’re home, I don’t know.
