Has anyone encountered a login error when trying to add Eufy Security to Google Home? I keep getting an invalid login, 18201 error.

Googing it brings up this page which doesn't seem to help or address it really.

Just thought I'd ask as I know there are a fair few Eufy users on here.

    I always found my Google Home devices were a bit janky when it came to working with my cameras (including Eufy). They would work fine for a short time, but then you had to remove Eufy from the Google Home app, and then re-adding/re-authorising.

    Ended up getting some Alexa devices which seem to work much better with this sort of thing.

    Ah! Okay. I've not found those issues myself, perhaps I've just been lucky then. I'll have a further poke around and stuff next time I'm at my folks (who I'm setting this up for so it's easier for them to use). Cheers

    I'm having this issue now. Any fix found?

    Probably not a fix for you but mine was the whole Googlemail vs Gmail resolving to the same thing. I think Eufy was trying to login using @ Googlemail for some reason when the account was setup with @ gmail.

    Unlikely to be the fix for you but hey ho, you never know. Good luck!
