  • Not much functionality

    No fast forward, no automatic next minute, trying to move video along yourself won't work, too much lag. Extremely dissatisfied. For $10 this is a rip off.
  • No support

    I’ve tried contacting support, no reply.
    I bought the Sandisk connect wireless usb stick , so I could use this app. And the app continuously says "empty folder" but when I plug it in the computer, all the footage is there.
    I did what they suggested in the frequently asked questions.... changed the usb name with the app ect.... still says the same. Empty folder.
    Still waiting for support..... zzzzz

  • Overall it’s a smart app

    I purchased a new USB JUST to use this app in our model 3. It was a bit clunky to connect, and the UI needs some thought. The files take awhile to load, and some cameras tend to not load at all and force you to wait awhile sitting in your car trying to figure out why. If the UI was redeveloped, the app became faster and the setup was easier, this would be a 5 star review. I’ll still continue to use it, but wish that we could select a certain camera, see all the clips from that camera in full screen, wish it was faster and wish the overall UI was cleaner.

  • Works better on my iPad then my iPhone rx

    For some reason does not work very well on iPhone rx. Most of the time video stops part way and hangs up. Now on my iPad it plays all the way though. I think it has trouble down loading the video on iPhone rx. In other words stops downloading but on iPad it does the download. I have found this happens on other iPhone X’s. Hope this bug can be fixed. Also it is slow to find the SanDisk WiFi, sometimes takes 5 minutes or longer. Once these things are fixed will give it a solid 5 stars.

  • Very impressed.

    I just tried SentryView with the SanDisk Connect and my iPad and it worked just as advertised and exceeds my expectations. Initially, I found browsing a tad awkward (I wanted to press the arrows in the opposite direction) but I quickly adjusted. Video playback was perfect. Seeing video from the 3 cameras simultaneously is amazing and eliminates the manual browsing, playing of one video clip at a time. Well worth $8 US.

  • Must have Tesla app

    The app is works flawlessly and allows you to delete footage from the app. No more plugging in the USB assuming you use the correct SanDisk stick. Great for a quick review of footage on the go. Worth the loot!
  • Nothing works

    Tried and tried with this app. Just keep being told to watch videos and download things.

    Was dubious. My advice don’t bother !
  • Good App for Tesla owners..

    It just works and works well.. love it, a little clunky initially but once it gets going it’s amazing..
  • Great App

    Certainly, connecting to a computer is the fastest way to view videos from the Tesla. However, I always have my phone with me and, with a little patience, this app works well in situations where access to a computer is not feasible. Thank you for developing this useful app.
  • Needs (a lot of) work

    I saw a lot of excitement around that availability of this app.

    For sure there is a need for something like this until such time as Tesla builds Sentry clip reviewing into the Tesla itself, which I’m sure is coming.

    As the developer points out this app only works with a specific Sandisk WiFi capable usb stick, so I acquired one.

    The app itself is pretty primitive, it shows the looped video recordings and then shows saved clips. Since the most likely use case for the app is people reviewing video of a recent Sentry activation it would be most helpful if those clips displayed FIRST instead of having to go hunt for them.

    When playing back clips I frequently have them halt. The only way to get them playing again is to use the search bar, move it around and sometimes you can get the app to start playing again. This is annoying and I’m pretty sure it’s an app issue since I don’t see these problems when playing the video back from a PC.

    You also can’t tap or zoom to a specific recorded camera and have it go full screen, which you really need when trying to see the video better.

    Most of my other critiques are related to a UI that looks like it was very hastily put together. More of what I would expect out of a cheap or ad supported free app and not one that is priced similar to full blown apps with much more functionality than this has.
