Looking for a house camera system what will run local. Do you have any?

Hi folks.
I want to ask if some of you have experience with some security camera system, that will run locally, have some motion detection, allow to have video doorbell integrated, and can be connected from phones (on wifi).
Nothing huge, just a few cameras and a few days of footage with motion detection to keep track.

Miyuki:
I'm going more toward the NVR solution, Reolink looks to have a complete system and even doorbell can cooperate with it
SD cards in cameras are a pain and you need to have cable anyway so why not record it centralized. It is much more convenient

I did a dual thing. I have a Ubiquity dream machine, that records cameras in 4k. These record 24/7 and I can access the machine from my phone to look at stuff. Often used to see if somone was messing about with the locks etc.

I also have some Blink cameras in locations that doesn't get footfall unless they break a gate down. This is used a motion detector that pings my phone that there has been movement.

Can you say, "coax"?

Seems to me that all the security camera systems were "local" before the internet came along. Of course they cost more.

I have an inexpensive ANNKE system that can run entirely local up to 4 x 1080p cameras (technically the horizontal resolution is 1440 so not true 1080p).  Cameras are analog and work over coax.  It can work over a network if you want it to, but I'm not going to do that until I have a proper VLAN setup supporting it.  To get 'app' integration you would use some kind of RTP service running on your phone, there are a few available, but it would only work locally if you had a VLAN setup.  You can get it to broadcast on the internet but that sounds like a bad idea to me!
