Ratings and reviews

This app is horrible. It was the recommended app for an automatic chicken door that my wife purchased. One set up. I thought it was going to be pretty good, that is until I tried to make adjustments to it. From my Android phone. I cannot adjust the time settings or alarm settings. From my wife's iphone, I can adjust settings, but it doesn't matter when you set them at. It just does its own thing.

Good for the money. I had to buy a 2600 mAH, 3.7v battery pack that connects via its USB port and at first, I used an older cheaper phone to test the app but when I installed the software on my new phone, I received a message telling me the UID was already used. I reset the camera, but this did not reset the UID. That was my fault for not trusting the software. I can still use the camera with my old phone, though. Overall, it's a good buy.

The app uses entirely too many resources. Slows down my phone, causes other apps not to work or to quit unexpectedly, even when the iWFCam app is stopped. Plus, the camera/app completely throttles the internet connection for everything else in the house. If you want to use this app and camera, I recommend using an old phone that can be dedicated to this app, and use a separate internet connection such as a standalone mobile hotspot/wifi device.
