Not reliable

More than half the time it can't connect

Thank you for the option to turn on/off the lights on some of your cameras. Hope that there will be a sound button to play the loaded audio clips as well coming soon. 4-18-17 it's awesome that you added the audio feature.

Absolutely blows

Installed it. Detected my cameras. Not one is compatible. Told me to use the computer version only available on windows.

It's a start, but needs some more features!

I've been involved in the security and automation industry for almost 10 years which isn't quite as long as compared to some. I've developed, planned, installed, and been the end user of many different high end systems. Many of which require per camera licenses. After a while of paying upgrade fees and yearly license fees I've been getting tired of dealing with this for my residential system. With this industry I am constantly adding, removing, and changing cameras and devices found on my property. So I figured I'd give the camera companion a try. I knew it would be a MAJOR change from going to a high end third party recording system to local storage. Unfortunately I also knew I was going to be losing some features on the mobile app. Not being able to control my PTZ cameras was one of them. I think that should be a GIVEN in any modern recording software. You can control it on the PC software but not on my mobile device. This mobile app also doesn't have the ability to view multiple cameras at once. You can view multiple still images at once but not live footage. That's my two largest complaints at the moment. If this were to be fixed I think it would be a great platform along with some other things that need to be addressed. Yes I know it's suppose to be an entry level system but there are some features that should just be a given especially with a high end manufacturer. For now it's back to the third party system but if Axis were to get their stuff together I would love to try it again in the future!

Not very good APP for what they charge for the system

Slow to pickup feeds, drops off more than online , stream is patchy at best. I have this system installed at three locations for over two years and while it work OK on site streaming is a zero out of eleven. Buy the system but do not expect to be a streaming genie .

App needs work

Export video quality is great however what good is export of video with out a time date stamp in court. Slower lower quality on windows PC platform but at least it has the time date stamp attached to the file

Need time/date search

Alarmtechy

Need to be able to search by time/date in the app without having to manually scroll back days in the timeline. We can do this on the desktop software, why not on the app? EDITED to 5 stars! Axis took my feedback and applied this to the app! Greatly appreciated!

Very good after updates

This app is getting better and better after the years. Axis is duing a good job with this app.

Better with age

This app is getting better with each release. Thank you Axis! Streaming reliability is better but could stand a little more improvement. Feature requests: the ability to swipe through camera live views rather than having to close out back to the grid to select another camera The ability to reboot a camera from the app. I have a troublesome camera and need to reboot it periodically.
