Seems like it has a lot of potential! I used Co-piolt to set my zoneminder up instead of using solely the zoneminder documentation. It works well. I like that there are other features you can add like face detection ect. I am using Reolink cameras

Not worth your time. I spent hours and hours trying to get this to work to no avail. Followed all the instructions, FAQ suggestions, and troubleshooting steps but this simply doesn't work. Confirmed API works correctly as stated in instructions so I can only assume this app is broken in it's current state. Avoid

This app works perfectly fine. For those who cannot get it to work you need to setup and enable SSL/https in apache2 for this to work. Recent changes to androids SDK prevent live video from working over plain http.
