### 1/5 — Can’t view my R2 cameras, issues with zines

*2019-03-22, version 2.35*

Really disappointed and frustrated with this app, I can no longer view my R2 cameras. But I can view my older Foscam 8910 cameras

Also, this app doesn’t allow me to remove zones for some reason

Because of these issues, I’ve reverted back to using the original app which still works like a charm (you can view R2 cameras by setting it up as an 9821 camera)

### 1/5 — App stopped showing R2 video stream

*2019-03-16, version 2.35*

Used to be a supporter of this app but two weeks ago it stopped showing the video stream on my R2 camera.  It logs into the camera but there is no video stream.  So far no response from the developer on this.  Had to load a competitor app in order to see the camera stream

### 1/5 — Delete a Zone?

*2018-11-29, version 2.35*

Navigating to Settings>Manage cameras and zones I can add a zone, add cameras, or delete cameras but there is no way for me to delete an unused, spare, or empty zone. I tried long pressing and swiping on the zone from either direction and I cannot find a way to delete zones. 
Advice please.

### 1/5 — Today screen issues, Support never reply

*2018-11-15*

Today screen doesn’t work for many models of cameras and no matter how many times you email support through the app with all diag info they do not reply, to date!

### 1/5 — Very average app

*2017-11-14*

Does not support latest cameras as not listed, no remote connection, PTZ live feed badly pixelated when moving camera, and goes back to normal once done. How is this the best app for foscam there are plenty which are better. Expensive also, i downloaded app to 1 device and $7.49 only supports 1 device additional downloads at $7.49 per download per device average,clunky, out of date.

### 2/5 — Disapointed

*2017-11-12*

Two points so far. I can only access the app from one device at a time. Secondly what is the point if i only get an alarm with the app open. Thirdly , again what is the point if i cannot see past alerts. I know i said two points but i really cannot see why you sell me a half built app

### 5/5 — Foscam

*2017-10-10, version 2.35*

Great app have been using it for years.

### 3/5 — In urgent need of an update

*2017-08-15*

This app could be brilliant but stay away from it until the developers update it, at the moment it is slow and lacking finesse.

### 1/5 — A Pro App that doesn't allow SSL

*2017-08-11*

Some of the older model Foscam cameras do not support SSL natively and so you have to use a reverse proxy with a signed cert. However, even though this app supports SSL, you cannot turn it on for older cameras if the didn't natively support. Why! Who knows but it seems like an over site.

### 2/5 — Missing important features

*2017-06-19, version 2.35*

Contacted the developer and he never answered. 1) You cannot setup internal & external IPs. 2) Does not offer push to talk. I sadly purchased this app. Last update was in 2016!!!

Fixed an important crash when going from mosaic to a single camera in some instances when using a Foscam HD camera.

Please also note that the developers involved are following an anti-suicide program. Just in case.

But seriously, we are sorry for the inconvenience caused!
