The rest is black. The time does not seem correct so perhaps the audio is not live, either. My ipad is a Gen 8 so quite old and behind on updates, but I do miss this connection with the UK! 🥺 **Developer response:** Thanks for your 5-star review, and YES...our upgrade is complete! We launched on June 18 for Sir Paul's birthday. The new camera features 4K streaming video for increased image quality. We hope you enjoy the new and improved views! ### 2/5 — No video? *2025-04-20, version 2.6.0* Lately when I've opened the app I only get audio and the yellow bar across the top. The rest is black. The time does not seem correct so perhaps the audio is not live, either. My ipad is a Gen 8 so quite old and behind on updates, but I do miss this connection with the UK! 🥺 ### 3/5 — Abbey road studios earth cam *2025-04-13* I’m having problems with no live video, but, I have audio only. If you could look into this, I would appreciate it. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Abbey road studios earth cam *2020-07-28* Have always loved this app but since last update, unable to view landscape mode. If this can’t be fixed, There’s no sense in having it and probably delete it. ### 4/5 — Restore Landscape view please *2020-07-23, version 2.4.3* I’ll update to a fifth star if I can get a landscape view. I visit the cam daily! ### 3/5 — Landscape view is gone *2020-07-12, version 2.4.3* I think it disappeared with the latest release. ### 4/5 — Version 2.4.3 update *2020-07-11* I always enjoyed getting away from life with a trip to Abby Road both day and night. That ended 5 days ago with the above update. My view is now confined to a small glimpse of the activity as the app is “ frozen” in place. No more landscape view, no more removing the yellow bar . I feel more like a voyeur than a active participant in life on Abby Road. I hope the landscape view will return in your next “bug” fix. Removing the yellow bar brings life up close and personal. Thank you for your anticipated positive response. ### 5/5 — Beatles *2019-10-17, version 2.4.1* Everyday I get to see the iconic spot where the infamous Beatles took their album cover. ### 5/5 — Jeez *2019-08-23, version 2.4.1* Amazing to see such an iconic place! ### 5/5 — Iconic! *2019-08-23, version 2.4.1* It’s so cool watching this iconic location!!! ### 5/5 — Living vicariously through everyone I see on this app *2019-07-31, version 2.4.1* The imagery is crystal clear! I really wish I could be there! ### 5/5 — Is the upgrade complete? *2019-07-13* Wondering if it's just me, or if the new and improved tech is still not up and running? I no longer even see the looped feed, only blackness. The June 18th roll-out would have been cool, on Sir Paul's birthday; but thus far it is not working. Miss it! **Developer response:** Thanks for your 5-star review, and YES...our upgrade is complete! We launched on June 18 for Sir Paul's birthday. The new camera features 4K streaming video for increased image quality. We hope you enjoy the new and improved views! ### 5/5 — Same street scene in a loop *2019-06-05* It used to be great app when it was part of Earth Cam. Now it has its own app and its the same scene over and over again. No longer a live feed. I hope it’s just a temporary thing, but it’s been going on for a few weeks now. **Developer response:** You'll be happy to hear that the camera is only temporarily offline while we upgrade the technology! Stay tuned for a new and improved viewing experience, coming June 18! ### 5/5 — Iconic landmark *2019-06-05* Great way to see this iconic airport and connect with its history without having to leave the house ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2019-05-29, version 2.4* It’s so cool to see this iconic site from a live feed ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No video *2025-08-22, version 2.6.0* What’s up with that? ### 1/5 — EarthCam got greedy *2024-08-19, version 2.5.2* Had the awesome app for years and enjoyed an occasional live peek of the Beatles famous Abbey Road crossing. Now it’s a blue screen and a message that it’s not going to be free anymore. EarthCam. I’m deleting the app .. ### 1/5 — Black Out APP *2024-08-17* This was a good app, but it is dead now. It is an app issue, not a cam issue. Google Abby Road street cam and it will work just fine, with out Apple's interference. They want money to see the live camera. I will just have to let this app go. It was great while it lasted…..not anymore. I found another source for the cam with no payment required. This app has gotten to be a scam and corrupt. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2023-12-07, version 2.5.2* I updated my IPad to iOS 17 and now the app doesn’t work anymore. 😥😥😥 ### 1/5 — Image in locked up *2019-06-01, version 2.4* The image on the app has been locked up for weeks. I’m not sure if the developer is responsible for getting the camera working, but the app is useless until it is fixed ### 1/5 — Your app has been frozen and non-functional for weeks. *2019-05-29, version 2.4* Fix it! ### 1/5 — Broken *2019-05-24* The app is broken unfortunately. I’m guessing the camera has been taken down. ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2019-05-22* Don’t know what they’ve done to this app but when opened it just freezes,not even worth the one star ### 1/5 — Not working *2019-05-21* Get it fixed please! ### 1/5 — Oh no *2017-07-22* Updated to the latest version of the app yesterday and all it does now is freeze. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Not working now *2026-08-01* I’ve had this app for several years and really enjoy it but in the last couple of days it doesn’t work. It will start to open but then just closes. I don’t know if it’s because of the iPhone 26.6 update but definitely disappointed. Hope it’s fixed soon. ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2026-06-05* This is great!! Keep this running forever!! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2025-02-07, version 2.6.0* This is amazing never remove this app! ### 5/5 — Amaizing *2024-10-18* This app is amazing also is it exactly live? ### 5/5 — No Longer a Useless App *2024-08-19* Update! After multiple attempts, the latest download finally seems to be working. Whatever glitch was happening is gone now. It was once enjoyable to take a peek at the live view of Abbey Road Crossing. The app no longer allows access to the camera, just a blue screen. ### 5/5 — I love this app *2020-06-03* This app is so great especially for Beatles fans, amazing view of abbey road. I can’t wait to be able to visit there in person because of this app ### 5/5 — Love this! *2020-01-15, version 2.4.1* England is one of my favorite places to visit. I love how this app allows me to take a virtual trip when I’m unable to physically be there. ### 5/5 — Love it *2019-11-22, version 2.4.1* It’s really cool to see such an iconic location ### 5/5 — Live feed to historical spot *2019-10-18, version 2.4.1* Really like checking this app out. Fun to see people recreate the Beatles album cover as traffic waits. ### 5/5 — Iconic *2019-10-18, version 2.4.1* It’s cool that’s there is an app that I can just see the famous Abbey Road. Always loved the Beatles --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
