Good brand

Very clear pic I’ve 4 of them amazing

Security camera

I’ve sent support request multiple times on this app, no response. Playback with continuous recording is difficult to review now without the highlighted time for movement, removed from app. Notifications to phone no longer work.

Akaso camera and app

Very good camera. But there not update on the app since long time ago.

Not supporting

They don’t make these any more, better to go with bigger company that can’t abandon products after a couple of years

NOT WORKING THEY WONT UPDATE APP DO NOT PURCHASE

i've made it a mission in life to have people avoid this product and Akaso products. For months i've been contacting them about the inability to go in full screen mode due to the update and they don't give a s*. Waste of money for a crap product anyway. Mine have also now lost ability to pick up movement it will only recognize a huge object like me or my husband but no longer recognized our two huge dogs (german shepherd and retriever) it used to but slowly this product is becoming a nightmare. i will be smashing them and buying something else reliable.

Don’t waste you $

Camera used for 10 months all of the sudden Dose not show full screen no matter what I did.

Fullscreen not working anymore

I have lost the ability to go into fullscreen mode when looking at my security cam with the latest version of iOS 16.1.1

Started out good

Not sure what happened but all of a sudden I can no longer view in full screen, when I click full screen my screen shows the image zoomed and half the screen is black. Only a year old. Was a good little outdoor camera until this happed. Checked all setting with no luck.

Tremenda

Funciona muy bien

Landscape view

Landscaping view or wide screen is not working after IOS 16.1.1 update

It needs an update!

It is not possible to see the full screen mode.
Probably related to new iOS, please check it out.

Please update

Please update for IOS-16 not doing full screen image

Used to work with Alexa

The app worked fine for quite awhile, and still does on a stand alone basis. But the link with Alexa is neutered now, the camera video will not show up on Alexa devices anymore.

Full screen mode not working

The full screen mode is suddenly not working. You turn it on and it stays in the same layout within the app and only gives access to half of the picture (it doesn’t open and automatically rotate into the full screen anymore). PLEASE FIX, since there is no there app we can use for this camera.

No notifications anymore

The motion detector no longer notifies me. And I can no longer search for recordings I have made. This app is BROKEN!

Akaso B60 100% Not recommend

It’s totally worse WiFi cameras I’ve waisted my money, I’ve contacted Akaso they agreed that it’s faulty and they wish to replace it, but they don’t have it in stock and it’s unknown when it will be available again. How stupid for a company don’t know there own systems and instead offering me £8 refund. What joke.

Abandoned product

Manufacturer no longer in the security camera business. App abandoned and no longer provides motion detection, etc. Glad I only purchased two cameras.

Just expect frustration

It’s hard to get this thing to work right consistently. Sure it records to the sd card but when you try to skip forward, it may just keep pushing you back to the first recorded segment every time and you may never get to see what your looking for. Don’t be foolish, buy the wyze cam ptz and it’ll work as intended.

Buggy

Akaso Smart used to be pretty good, but key features have been broken for awhile… foremost push notifications whenever movement (or sound) is detected… kind of important for a security camera. It works on Android devices, but not on any of my iOS devices anymore. When it did work, before about a year or so ago, it was spotty, working great for awhile and then not at all for awhile. I think Support must have since given up on it. Maybe they could add email notifications as an alternative… but that’s assuming this app is still being supported… which I am beginning to doubt.

Full screen views are now cropped like it’s on a phone in the normal camera view… however, you can still get them in the other mode where you can see all the camera screens at once… you switch to a single camera view and then press the button that rotates the view to landscape mode. Unfortunately, there is no view rotation button back on the normal view.

If the notifications were working, I would have rated this 4 stars at least… but without it, I can only give it 2.

Notifications

Thought this was supposed to be an awesome app! But it’s not it doesn’t notify me when there is movement. It tells me once I’m on the app and physically look at it but doesn’t notify my phone that there was movement. I’m super disappointed.
