Ratings and reviews

Very slow when trying to view live feeds from the camera, if it even loads at all. So slow that you really only get to see every 10 seconds, at best. Occasionally, it will tell me the lights are on , then I look out the window to see they aren't, or vice versa. Honestly wish I never spent the money on the system. it doesn't integrate with Alexa/Amazon (Not sure about Google or others) so you are forced to use their app which can close for no reason, or not remember your login credentials.

The issue with the app is complicated. Very often, when I open the app, a popup states I am not connected to the internet (even though I am.) To trouble shoot, I have to do one of two things, either turn on and off the phones wifi, or turn on and off the mobile data. Doing one of these two things always works, but then I am having to routinely enter in my login information. I uninstalled and installed the app, which did not fix the issue. Frustrating and inconvenient.

Notifications don't work. If you stay logged in, it will boot you out after a while qnd when you go to log back in an error message will keep showing up preventing you from logging it. The only solution is to complete close out the app. This is an issue with the app itself, have re-download several times. Also, there is an issue with the camera video clips. It would allow you to leave the clip screen until the clip is over and it takes you back automatically. This is annoying and inconvenient.
