Ratings and reviews

I have used lots of camera apps over the years, but I have never used such a convoluted one like this one. Configuration of a camera is strung out across an amazing number of screens and takes way more clicks than it should. After a few years I now am unable to get any notifications from my 3 camera. Reinstall, reconfig, nothing fixes the notifications

Playback doesnt work... again. App just doesnt work right and is very clunky. Edit - Up to 3 stars from 1: 8/15/24: App works better, motion detect replay works better, but still a nightmare to setup new cams. Also, Im constantly having to update the IP addresses of my cams in the app when my router changes them. Very annoying. Its a good thing I know how to find them... The average user will not know how to, imo.

The only good feature no longer works. The push notifications stopped working a few weeks ago, and will not work. I've had these cameras for about 2 years and haven't had any issues till now. I have tried deleting the camera and reconnecting, I've gone through every setting and it won't connect to the "Alarm triggers" setting either. I used to like these cameras because I didn't have to pay a fee, and I could use an SD card for storage. Now they are not as useful.
