Not user frendly

I bought the ReadyNas214 system with the expectation of streaming to whatever device I wanted, as their sales video stated. But alas it does not. This current app is slow to load and access account, as well as, subsequent sub folder structures. When you try any music files it does not seem to load or display any meta data such as cover art or artist. When you select it to play, videos or music, it opens a web page with a basic player and starts downloading. Does not play until finished. Not my idea of streaming. Again no other data such as album art in background. Seems very poorly written. I want to have the choice to just download to my device or just stream it when away from home to any device. I feel I should be able to access my Nas system directly without going through a Netgear web service or account, which also seems to defeat the purpose of having a home or office cloud server system. Device seems to work ok but the apps are severely lacking. The help videos do not match the screens that I am seeing on my system. I cannot send email share invites either. No option to enter the email address as shown in videos. Will plug along and do some more research, but as of today I would not recommend system due to poor app design and support.
What’s the point?

What is the point of this if I cannot upload anything using the app? I see in the picture previews for the app that it shows the individual uploading something to their NAS. After installation the app asks for permission to my photos but do not see any way to upload, forcing me to be home and in my office using my desktop to upload.
One star is too much

Wish I would heave read the reviews before I spent all this money on this NAS and waiting 4 days to build my volume. This app is completely useless and does not work period.
Simple but works

This app provides access to your files via the cloud, but that’s about it. For this purpose, it works great. Don’t expect to be able to stream movies from it. Just think of it as strictly as a way to access your files when away from home. It will let you share the files though, through the same options you get with sharing other files (email, text, etc). My only gripe is that you can’t add other ReadyCLOUD users from the app. You still need the web portal for that.
After install, it keeps crashing!

After installing this app, it immediately begins to crash, claiming my device is not set up!! I just accessed it from the app on my MacBook Pro ... it’s set up alright. Now, I’m feeling a little “set up” myself! I’ll give it a bit and see if this all cleans up. Mid so, I’ll come back and update my review, but for now? Eeeh! No thanks!
