First-install notes
- Add Eufy login details and 2FA Fill in your country, Eufy email, and password, and be ready to enter the two-factor code (a one-time code from Eufy) if asked. Without those, the app can't sign in or see your cameras. source
- Install the client package Run npm install eufy-security-client, where npm is the package installer. Without this package installed, the app can't connect to Eufy devices. source
- Use device serial numbers When pointing the app at a camera, lock, or tracker, use the device's serial number, often shown as sn. If the serial number is missing or wrong, events, livestreams, or actions will not work. source
