Why is everyone complaining about this app for? Its extremely awesome there is only one problem with this app and that is sometimes the frame is a little slow but every thing else rocks...
Great

Does just what it says. I'd give it a fifth star if it wasn't local network only in this version, but I understand.
Crashes, Slow Refresh
Big Plastic Head
The program running on my iMac crashes when I try to connect with the iPhone app. When I have been able to connect, the refresh rate is around 15 - 20 seconds. After futzing around with it for over an hour I am giving up on this app.
Works great despite what others are saying

The free version will only let you connect via WiFi. It's pretty much only good for using as a baby monitor or whomever you may want to "spy" on. You can only use this version on your home network. The paid version allows you to connect via 3G and WiFi. 3G is slow but still works. The rest of the world has 4G why is the US so slow to install this upgrade? Sure the video is a bit choppy; playing back at around 1 or 2 frames per second. But hey, the damn thing works over the 3G network! It's plenty clear for me to see what's going on at home. Audio is a bit laggy too but you can adjust that in the app. I just haven't bothered. Also, if you're phone is connecting through the same WiFi your computer is hooked up to, the app will crash. And there's no getting around that. So take your phone over to your buddies place, jump on his WiFi and fire up the AirCam app there with no problems. You just can't use the same WiFi as your computer. Now configuring my ATT U-Verse router firewall was a real pain. If the auto port-forwarding feature doesn't work with your router and you know absolutely nothing about IP addresses, Port configuration and firewalls, prepare to be frustrated and have plenty of time on your hands to manually configure it. The support provided by senstic is a good reference but there are just so many different routers out there with so many variations of each that their support only provides a good basic detail of how to manually configure. But if you can see past the obvious differences in the photos they provide, you should be able to configure it with no problem. Otherwise call over one of your more "computer savvy" buds
Slow as hell.

Used it over wi-fi N with iPhone 4 and it's extremely slow or freezes. I've had more consistent results with Orb Live.
Continuing Disappointment

Had the app for a while now and updated with every new release. I'm in southern California and have ATT as my ISP. Their router doesn't support UPnP, so I have the server set to manual port forwarding, and have reviewed my settings based on their instructions several times. Same thing every time, I connect my phone, I get up to one second of video stream, then it freezes, and get intermittent one or two second bursts of audio occasionally afterward. Senstic, I will purchase the full version to get the service away from home if you fix this issue. As is, no way.
