Exceptional Concept and Value

How brilliant to make use of old (&new) phones as security cameras rather than throw them away or leave them in draws. These phones all have high quality cameras so why not make use of them. Great for the environment and great for the hip pocket!
The app is so good too, heaps of features and so easy to setup, I think superior to dedicated systems!
And remember the app works across multiple platforms iPhone and android.

Not a safe app and customer service is not good

So some how someone is able to delete my events and uncheck motion detection I reached out to customer service and no response. Apps are hyped in this store and some have no customer service skills.

While the features are ok the security is not.

Отличное, удобное и бесплатное приложение

Спасибо, очень помогло следить за котейкой после операции. Поставили везде старые телефоны и смотрим с мониторов компьютера.

Lo mejor de lo mejor

Rey de reyes

Used to be 5 stars

Had the free and pro version and now they changed it so even on only one camera you can not review the motion recording without Pro … not even a single one had to go to 1 star since that’s changed

Fraud

Don’t buy this app, I subscribed and when I redownloaded the app there was no option to redeem the subscription, scam, how can I attach screenshots to my review ?

Almost great

The new widget would be great if it consistently worked. Unfortunately if the app goes into any sleep/stasis then the widget does nothing.

Nightmare setup

Most ignorant setup algorithm in the galaxy!

Great for Temporary - HOWEVER…

I would consider this app great for a temporary situation because of Lithium Battery safety vs needing to keep the charger connected vs how fast the camera uses the battery up.

Research the safety hazards that accompany keeping a iPhone plugged in around the clock. Research what happens to the battery and especially how heat can affect it.

I signed up for the 3 day trial, to then pay $3.99 a month. I canceled my subscription but i later found out im being charged for the yearly subscription which is $35!! apple tried to charge my account, i didnt have the money, so now my account is locked. i cant even reinstall the app to configure my subscription. on top of that i cant contact anyone to help me! what do i even do 😐

Peace of mind!

Wow! Wish I knew about this before a break in by someone with a master key! I had to get my meds and am a trauma survivor. I watched this the whole time I was out! Used an iPhone 11 for camera and watched on my iPhone 16+. Could hear myself talking to kitty as I arrived home! Truly awesome!

Perfeito

Super ótimo

muy buena app

mejorar para ios

Too many bugs since iOS 27

It used to be seamless now my camera phone will not exit anymore from guided access and two days ago the app completely stopped working with the camera app non recording motion and storing videos anymore. Patience is running out

Bien

Te veo 🥷🏻📿

Paying for 10 years or so

And cant access the program as my gmail got disabled.

What do I do?

Havent been able to use this program for 4 years and counting….

Wow, upgrade subscription to get the same

Up until your upgrade subscription, all those things now that made this app useful or locked behind and even higher pay wall… detection, all this stuff, the stuff that I relied on this app for, I kept resetting my phone. I thought there was something wrong with it… but no, it was because you took all the stuff that made this app useful and put it behind and extra pay wall.. I’ve been with you since the beginning, but this is where we part ways, I can get a camera set up that works better than this for one time fee

1016/1018/1019 errors

When do you plan to fix this? Im the ONLY ONE accessing the camera, and i keep receiving that message that someone else is! It SO simple to fix, so why don’t you?

Great use for old 7 Plus

I’m no technophile and do far I’ve been impressed with the easy setup and monitoring usefulness. The “camera” is my old iPhone 7 Plus and the app is on my 17e with iOS 26. The camera 7+ senses everything, but I know I can adjust the sensitivity if desired.
Before, I had to pay for another indoor security camera service provider (my internet service) and it was spotty, a pain to restart the WiFi repeater, etc. But the Alfred camera on my old iphone is very reliable. I keep the lightning power cord plugged in, so if there’s a power outage the battery will back it up. Note the 7+ is not on a cellular network, it just uses WiFi.

Worst security ever

The system is easy to hack. A hacker can intercept the signal and disable your device. Even on its best day, the signal is weak to connect to the receiver. Don’t waste your money. Any positive reviews are generated from Alfred. Worst security app ever. They steal your money and leave you with zero security.
