It's Garbage! – iCam - Webcam Video Streaming Review

New Amendment: 10-31-17 It's still garbage! Worse than before! So I bought this thing years ago. Part of their advertising at that time was that you could view all of your files and they were locally stored and you'd get all updates for free!! Well, here we are, and they've absconded with local storage, as you have to buy cloud space by the month to see your files!!! And the local video viewing NEVER WORKS! And if you buy their data streaming, it STILL eats it up faster than it should: e.g. I bought 5gigs, and it was gone in under 5 seconds. I started to record, and it did so for 5 seconds and then it said I was out of storage, and asked if I'd like to buy more storage!!! Amendment: Within minutes of writing the review below, my camera was disabled on my computer. I have video of it, so, go ahead and try to claim that I'm slandering iCam. I'm taking the computer to a forensics buddy of mine and he's going to find out who did that. We'll know from the time stamps of the post and the act of disabling the camera, my video of the cameras death, and the forensic evidence that it was iCam that hacked my computer. Want some more of that iCam? I'm still recording, so break in again, I can use more money from the coming lawsuit! First, don't let them fool you into thinking that you should contact them first to let them fix YOUR PROBLEM, because they'll first ignore you, then they'll make you feel like there's something wrong with your brand new phone or the speed of your T-1 business internet connection that's preventing it from connecting from iCam Source to iCam. Second, the way you know it's being done on purpose is because the error message that returns is almost ALWAYS that there are no public servers available, "WOULD YOY LIKE TO BUY SOME PRIVATE SERVER TIME". So, you give it a try and it burns through your purchased time in milliseconds", and then they ask you if you'd like to buy more time!!! Third, it's supposed to work on YOUR INTERNAL WIFI NETWORK, but it doesn't, but again, if you contact them, they're going to act like they are doing you a service by helping you with YOUR PROBLEM, as opposed to you being patient with a product you bought in good faith that that product works when you buy it, that future updates will work, and if they don't work with phone updates, that they are working on making it work. Rest assured, they are doing none of that. It's your fault it doesn't work, and if you bend at the knee maybe they'll help you! And lastly, it's obvious from the other reviews that iCam is writing at least some of those over top, glowing, perfect product, never an issue reviews! Just read them and read the dates, and then find the bad reviews and look at those dates! Yea! They correspond to each other. I suspect that there will be a counter review of this review too! I'm writing his on 5-15-16, so, look for one directly after or before. Yes, before, because the log date can be manipulated for developer devices, by extracting the date of the device that's used to make the post. Apple need to stop this type of extortion altogether. They're making the app not work in lieu of a sales pitch to buy time.
