### 3/5 — iphone yes iPad oops

*2023-05-28, version 2.0.5*

The three dots to edit a stream crash the app on my iPad. On iPhone 7 Plus, the three dots work fine.
Otherwise it works as desired 👍🏼

### 2/5 — New interface, no instructions, unstable

*2019-08-24, version 2.0.0*

There’s a nice feature for viewing everything on the same screen. Can’t get it to work, not intuitive, no instructions.

* Sharing doesn’t work and crashes app
* tiled view of cameras doesn’t work
* list of cameras pointless and doesn’t show live views it seems
* list view preview after viewing a camera, occasionally, incorrectly decodes the thumbnail preview (rgb looks messed up)
* no privacy policy in place, for what it seems, cloud connectivity. Will my streams be accessible for the world to see? 
* no data retention policy is place for cloud connectivity.
* QA seems to be very lacking.

This update makes the app less useful. It’s a shame. Used to be my go to app for RTSP streams. 

Please bring back the old version

### 3/5 — Used to work well now crashes

*2018-06-29, version 1.2.0*

Used to work well now crashes, have tried a reinstall and reboot. Sad times.

### 3/5 — Need a way to get rid of ads

*2018-06-12, version 1.2.0*

How about you create a pro version or an in-app purchase for no ads? I would happily pay you $1-3 dollars to never see an ad here again.

### 4/5 — Best app of its kind

*2017-12-05, version 1.1.0*

Searched through a bunch of IP camera apps and this was the best. Getting some crashes on iOS11 and noticed this hasn’t been updated in a year. Would be awesome if you guys could update the bugs. Thanks!!

### 2/5 — Recording feature

*2017-09-24, version 1.1.0*

Please add the ability to record his streams like you have on your other app....

Thank you.

### 4/5 — Simple, works

*2017-04-11, version 1.1.0*

It works

### 2/5 — Ok to check a camera is working

*2017-01-22, version 1.1.0*

This app works fine for a quick camera check but you can't use it for long. It doesn't keep an iPhone unlocked even during full screen video and upon unlocking your iPhone, the app crashes and has to be reloaded

### 3/5 — So close!

*2017-01-01, version 1.1.0*

This is almost exactly what I'm looking for, though a couple issues. If you specify an incorrect URL, you can't edit the stream because it's not started. You must delete and re-add. If you want to move the position of the feed, you must delete and re-add. You also can't view 4 feeds on one screen at a time. Scrolling is necessary. I just wish I could find a simple app like this that would act more like a security camera system. View of 4, 8, 16 feeds at a time without all the fancy borders, spacing, and padding around each feed. This app just wastes a lot of screen real estate, but I love its simplicity.

### 1/5 — Does not work with iphone 4

*2016-11-17, version 1.0.5*

It does not work with iphone 4, so no use for me thanks anyway great effort

### 3/5 — It works

*2016-10-06, version 1.0.5*

It's usable, but the pop up ads get annoying.

### 1/5 — Do not update to the new version!

*2025-05-23, version 3.0.0*

They forcing you to have a cloud account! The app doesn’t work as a regular rtsp player anymore without account!

### 1/5 — Can’t get in

*2024-07-07, version 2.1.0*

Wants me to sign in to cloud but doesn’t give me a option to create a account, waste of my time

### 1/5 — Was useful. Now it’s a waste of space.

*2019-09-27, version 2.0.0*

No longer works on iOS 13. Plain and simple. Happens on multiple devices not just the new ones. Such a shame.

### 1/5 — Constantly crashing without error

*2019-09-24, version 2.0.0*

Stopped working after iOS 13 update

### 1/5 — Not working on iOS 13

*2019-09-21, version 2.0.0*

The app is crashing upon playing a camera in iOS 13 on an iPhone 8 Plus

### 1/5 — Froze my whole phone

*2019-09-06, version 2.0.0*

For an app to completely freeze the whole phone cause the need to force restart is bad I'd give it negative stars if I could

### 1/5 — Looks fantastic until the full page ads take over...

*2019-01-21, version 1.2.0*

Good simple interface.
Does what it says until the extremely intrusive (crippleware) ads takeover.
Pity.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2019-01-07, version 1.2.0*

Works but shows ads with no way to remove!  Come on guys seriously?

### 1/5 — Ad supported

*2018-09-07, version 1.2.0*

Randomly appearing full-page ads that need to be dismissed.  Thanks but no thanks

### 1/5 — Crestron Streamer

*2017-07-24, version 1.1.0*

I have a Crestron Streamer that works with VLC, but not with RTSP Player.  Wish I could get it to work.

### 5/5 — Well done VXG

*2021-01-22, version 2.0.2*

Great app for viewing my home cameras!

### 5/5 — Awesome update

*2019-08-25, version 2.0.0*

Well designed and great functionality. However the grid view doesn’t seem to work. I can’t add cameras to it.

### 5/5 — What an update !!

*2019-08-23, version 2.0.0*

Very impressed with the new functionality here.

### 5/5 — One of the few that work

*2017-11-21, version 1.1.0*

I’m so glad I came across this, I can view my camera remotely or locally with no issues and it doesn’t plaster ads all over my camera feed.

### 5/5 — Perfect / simple / stable

*2017-10-09, version 1.1.0*

If you are looking specifically for an rtsp player this is it! I use it to access rtsp streams directly from ip cameras on a local network, really nice interface to input and save the URL’s. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Works

*2017-08-25, version 1.1.0*

Works perfectly with UVC G3

### 5/5 — Just what I needed!

*2016-01-19, version 1.0.1*

Got me iPhone access to a camera I otherwise couldn’t have streamed direct. Very happy! :-)

### 4/5 — New version is much more stable

*2019-11-21, version 2.0.2*

New version hasn’t crashed yet and everything seems a little faster. Good job.

### 4/5 — Great app, very stable, but needs tweaking

*2018-07-24, version 1.2.0*

This is a fantastic app, playback is stable and reliable - much more so than other video player apps, even paid ones.

My only issue is that when you’re watching a stream, the developer hasn’t disabled the iOS auto-sleep function, so you have to keep tapping the screen to stop it from dimming and then going to sleep.

I’d be happy to pay $5 for a version of this app that implemented that feature. We use this as a baby camera monitor, and it’s otherwise perfect.

### 4/5 — Misc issues

*2018-02-13, version 1.1.0*

How do you stop a feed?
