Just got this and only want it for livestreaming, no subscription. I do not need sirens or lights, or even motion notifications. just want to be able to check on an area when I need to.

the question was answered-- however, I do have another issue. I am trying to share the device but it does not seem to work. My people created an account, and they are trying to use the app to access the device. I keep sending invitation emails, but they remain as "pending", even after clicking the link in the email. 1 out of 3 people were successfully activated.

Make sure the others are using a PC, and not their phone. That tends to work better. If the account already exists, they should just fully log in when they click on the "Create Account" link. That includes going through the two-factor authentication process.
