I loved it until I got a new camera
Inf 0311
I used to live this app; until I got me a foscam C1 which this app doesn't support and I can't connect. I tried going to their website for help foscamapp.com/support but is unavailable. I guess I am just getting a newer and better app for my new camera, such a bummer.
New App loses ground
John Q Private
I was happy with the old app, so I paid for this new version expecting it to be better. Instead, I found 2 problems: 1. It is not as forgiving with camera support. One of my cameras is a Foscam-clone (TenvisJPT3815W) which worked fine using Foscam 8918W setting on the old app. It gets hung on 'querying camera controls' on this new app. 2) if listening to another app's audio, the old app would allow the audio to play, unless you explicitly turned on the camera audio. The new audio always interrupt other audio, even when cameras are muted. This forces me to stop listened, while peeking at a camera, then switch back to the other app and restart my music/audiobook. The user support for this is poor; yet, they beg you to not write negative reviews.
I've given up on it
Clinton1979
I reviewed the app a few months ago and gave it a good review because I saw potential. Here we are, quite a long time down the road and the flaws back then are still flaws now. The today screen being gray for the cameras no matter what I do (not an issue until a couple months ago), buzzing when I go into the app even though the sound is off and disabled in the app, unreliable connectability, and the way alerts are setup with Foscam and this app make alerts unreliable too. I dod send issues to Foscam as they request us to do but that was some time ago. I'll stick with Security Spy and Remote Patrol; far superior app combo.
Great value

Excellent remote viewing and control for your cameras. Easy setup and use. Good updates and very stable.
Password
Reza1372
The app is useless because the password field does not allow symbols. I can't even use it to see a camera. Of course for security reasons it makes sense to use lots of combinations including symbols in the passwords.
Works as advertised on IPhone

I haven't used all the features but it seems to be a reliable way to view and control a Foscam wireless camera.
Not a baby monitor anymore
Slgrimmer
I used this app for quite awhile as a baby monitor. Over the past few months though the app will fail to transmit sound- either turning that feature off or just not transmitting it in the first place. While the picture quality is good I can no longer use it because I need the sound to work, otherwise I have to rely on my child screaming loud enough that I hear her though closed doors.
