Awful piece of software
Vince Coetzee
This is one of the worst pieces of iOS software I’ve ever had the displeasure to use. It’s badly designed, it’s not easy to use, it violates many iOS conventions, it crashes a lot and clearly the developers did not understand how to write a decent iOS app. The thing I find most frustrating is how the developers have not made correct use of the iOS APIs which makes the app difficult to use because it does not function the way other iOS apps do. Another thing that contributes to the poor quality of the app is that it is just plain ugly, well designed iOS apps are usually aesthetically pleasing but not this one. The developers of the app also did not bother to get the app properly translated into English so there are horrible mistranslations such as when one is asked whether one wishes to overwrite existing data and the app asks one if one “wants to cover it”. A truly horrible piece of software, if people have given this app a rating of 4.7 it’s only because they like the information the app makes available not because it’s a good app. YUK !
Screen turns even when vertical lock is turned on

Please disable the horizontal flip when vertical screen lock is turned on.
App only in horizontal view on iPad

Fir whatever reason app only works in horizontal view on iPad. It’s vertical on iPhone but only horizontal on iPad. So if you have vertically wall mounted iPad, good luck. Also app has strange interface. Different access and setup when on wifi in the house and separate for remote access And you need multiple passwords for different things. Overall, very “patchy” approach.
Ugh
try another nuckname
We recently had several cameras and a doorbell installed. Nothing but problems. We get hundreds of notifications daily because the cameras will not save changes we made. We have changed all sorts parameters but they change right back (microphone, sensitivity). What good is it when you get over 500 notifications in a day. We can’t possibly check each one because it continues to send a notification every time afar goes by. We have shut off microphone ( comes right back on) moved sensitivity to the minimum and changed area to steps of the porch. But still hundreds of notifications daily. Horrible app!!! I would give it a “0” if I could.
Trashy unwoorkable app
bbbbullshit
I would NEVER again buy this Chinese junk. Impossible to utilize this user UNfriendly mess. Designed by clowns w a definite language barrier and zero end user value
New update and now no access to the device

This has always been a terrible app. Trying to look through footage is next to impossible and the cameras go offline frequently. Today, I opened the app to find all of the cameras gone and no way to get them back. The QR code leads to nothing and there is zero customer support anywhere. Total waste of time and money.
