Ratings and reviews

It not only does its job perfectly, but also does much, much more! (background-recording camera, how'd that?) Unfortunately, the UI is an unbelievable mess. I'm not talking about the bad engrish, I'm talking about the labyrinth of menus and dialog boxes. The developer skipped the easy part Is this how it's done on Android?

I like the app but the screen keeps flashing at random. Sometimes once in 10 or 15 seconds, sometimes every second. By flashing I mean a break in vodeo, goes away and comes back. Does this with any phone I'm hosting on or whatever device im watching on, PC or windows

Works well enough. The IP Webcam server is running on an old Galaxy S6 connected to a hotspot then opened on an even older Galaxy Tab 10.5 via Chrome to the URL provided by the IP Webcam server. The only issues I see are: 1. Intermittent fairly regular flickering/stalling on the clientside Galaxy Tab 10.5. May be a buffering issue. This doesn't make it unusable, just mildly annoying. 2. The S6 is old it may be the source of the flickering. 3. The S6 is eating its' charge quickly
