Don’t use this, use Strikeforce Wireless
The company behind this app REALLY REALLY needs to update this to just say to use the Strikeforce Wireless App. This app is basically abandoned.
The app is trash
The app hasn’t been updated in a few years. The app on not detecting the device on. Do yourself a favour and ignore this brand and the app.
2023 Doesn’t work with iPhone
As previous reviews have noted, the app is not updated, and doesn’t work with the current iPhone iOS.
Fantastic
The app is a fantastic tool and very simple to use. Not only this but the app has the ability to control your camera at your fingertips. I have numerous cameras I utilize with this app. I train a multitude of individuals over cell cameras with my career and can assure you this app is the best one amongst other trail camera companies. I have really benefited from the most recent modification and upgrades done with the app as well.

App needs updating
Wonderful camera, horrible app. App does not work at all with current iOS version. So upsetting. We loved this camera, but now can't access its photos at all using this app.
Handy trail cam but app needs an update
The camera is good but the app is long overdue for an update (hasn’t been updated for 4 years!)
Needs a battery monitor and the app often crashes when even just deleting a few files.

will not connect to phone for playback, absolute trash.
Not good
The worst app I’ve ever used
This App Doesn’t Work!!!
Please update this app or make the defender camera compatible with a New App!! It’s very frustrating!!! I had to take down the trail because I cannot access it without taking it off the tree and removing the SD card.
Very hard to connect
I find it almost impossible to connect to the camera with this app. Standing 2 feet away… won’t connect. Trying to directly connect via wifi… won’t connect. Watched all kinds of YouTube videos… won’t connect. I take the memory card physically out of the camera to download pics which kinda defeats the wifi feature

Get something better wasted my whole morning fooling with this crap.
Defender App
All of a sudden, I cannot get the app to work. It just does nothing when I try to open it, just the “front” page.
It connects to Wi-Fi once
The app properly connect to Wi-Fi once. Then if you go back a couple hours later and try to connect to Wi-Fi again it consistently fails. The only way I found to do this is to delete the app and re-download it each time I want to connect, which is obviously not ideal. I hope this gets fixed eventually.

Great Camera, app, not so much...
This is review number 3. My two previous reviews are over a year old. The app was updated 8 months ago according to the app store. I am not sure if its because I have not updated my iphone in forever but even when it was the app crashed. I can no longer download pics or videos to my phone, ever since the last update. I can (barely) view them on my phone but they do not download. I am not sure what happened but the feature no longer works. The Defender camera is amazing, pics/vids and audio quality are top notch. The app connects (most times) and allows me to make the needed adjustments in the settings menu, and I can delete vids/pics. The app does crash, I'd say at least once while reviewing data, but oh well. I suppose that asking for some updating to the app would be asking for too much since its now all outdated tech. But in my opinion, why create an app and not update it more often?

Doesn’t work
The app connected (eventually) when first unboxed the camera. Following morning onwards, will not connect. Lots of spinning wheels of doom - “loading”; “resetting”; etc but fails every time. Should’ve purchased cheap junk from Amazon rather than expensive junk from Browning.
Needs more features
PLEASE for the sake of simplicity make a “download all” and a “delete all” feature on the app. Drives me crazy clicking on each individual one.
I just one to walk up download all
Clear the card
And walk out

Defender wireless
Camera is good. App is frustrating and ill conceived. Signal is so weak as to be virtually useless unless standing next to camera. Do not use this if expecting true wireless connectivity.
Short range
WiFi and Bluetooth work perfectly if the camera and I-phone are in the same room. Outside, forget it.
Might just as well have bought a fifty quid camera from eBay without remote access.

Awful update.
The most recent update has been a nightmare drops signal ALL the time it takes 10 times longer to finally connect to all my trail cams. Very frustrating considering i need to be in and out of all my hunting areas. Def a step backwards with this new update. Unfortunately now it’s a lot faster to unlock and exchange SD cards.
