Ratings and reviews

I understand that offline may mean it is unable to connect to it, but that's the issue. I check both devices, restart them, app says its functioning fine on the camera end with my phone next to it and it still wont connect. I have checked my internet as well. Everything on my end was fine. A since fairly recent update it had been working good for awhile but is since another update not working again. A repetitive trend would indicate it's a software issue.

Been using this app for a while with a cell phone as my security camera. overall I have liked it especially since it's free. But it will randomly stop working. Today I have added another camera to the account and now it's been kicking the monitor phone and the camera phone offline causing me to have to log back in manually on each phone. Meanwhile I think I have security cameras and I actually don't because they've stopped working. If this continues I'll have to find another app.

Buggy as hell, and getting help takes several days and the help is "have you tried turning it off and on again?". It works fine for a few days or even a week or more but then it can't connect to the camera anymore and the only way to get it working again is to delete all data and cache from both devices, then reinstall the app, then restart both devices after new installation and then it usually starts working again. Sadly it's still the best one available, even though it's not really very good
