Can't export recordings

Pepperoniface

Much improved. It loads much faster and is way less buggy. The app is usable now.

This is by far one of the most useless and unreliable apps I have ever downloaded from the App Store. The features are limited, designed for viewing only with no remote control capabilities of my cameras. Five times out of 10 my site will fail to load and I can not get access to my cameras. It's also common for me to be able to load one camera but not the other. I never have the confidence I should have that the app is going to function correctly 100% of the time when I am away and need to monitor my home. Overall I am on the fence about the products from this company. The build quality of the cameras are mostly good, but not enough attention is paid to the software which side of things which is taking on an increasingly larger role... And did I mention their support?

Requires Windows to set up

Missing Some Features

I wish it was more feature filled including: - Ability to turn LEDs on - Ability to talk through camera speaker - Multi-view should be live and give various view options - Speed to bring bring up videos is much slower than third party apps. Basically I use this only to access stored recordings. I use Owlr for live view as it can turn my LEDs on and it is extremely quick to get live video going. I hope Axis can complete the feature set so I can use just one app.

Slow when works

MrRMNB

Remote connection stops working even though I can see video remotely though a web browser. When it does work there are long delays before video is visible. Quality is good though.

Ugh

Make it possible so I can add cameras manually and I'll give you a higher rating. I can't add my camera because it's behind a firewall using port forwarding and your limited software won't let me add it.

No sites listed

1) The Report a Problem link in iTunes doesn't work - leads to a page that doesn't exist anymore. 2) Logging in to an account setup with a PC, I don't see any of the sites I set up on the PC. 3) Attempting to create another site in the app, I can discover the camers but they're both greyed out.

Lacks features

Hebs01

Installs and set up is easy but very disappointed this app is so weak and lacks many typical features other security camera apps use. For example, can't even activate the cameras LED lamp. They make excellent camera so surprised didn't make more of an effort to release or improve this app. Don't bother with it!!

Sharing doesn't work on iPad

MauriB79

Sharing a video recording doesn't seems to work with the iPad version. It works on iPhone 6. All devices running iOS 10.0.2 at the moment

Miserable experience to no end

I went through all the bother of setting up an account (and it was much bother as account set up kept failing; I suspect password restricitons but no info available on that. Took two tries and two email accounts). What did I find? Absolutely nothing about how to set up camera in the app. Just advertiseements. App Store directs you to an Axis website. Another mess of confusing information mostly ads for services. As far as I can tell you have to use a PC program to do set up. Deleting. Want my time back.
