Message feature doesn't work

I've had problems with this app connecting to my PTZ camera from the very beginning. The latest upgrade to the app has made it so bad that I am not receiving any messages at all despite the fact that I have paid for the cloud service.

Since August 27 2026, all my Foscam R2 caméras don’t work

I don’t know if this is related, but since Thursday August 27 2026, all of my Foscam R2 caméra at my house as well at some of my friends house don’t work anymore. Even if I want to access the camera locally fro it IP address and port number or via the Foscam iPad iPhone application. None of these methods are working. I have 4 Foscam R2 and my friend has 3 and same result. All my other camera on my network are working properly. Also I am using a Amazon firestick with the software TinyCam monitor pro and it’s giving the same problem . I can’t connect to my Foscam R2 it asked my credential which have not been changed , I I put them and nothing happen.

Quality

The quality of this camera is extremely terrible. The visual changes from all white to pixelated you can’t see anything it loses color. This is the worst camera I’ve ever purchased.

Good Foscam App

App now works reliably well. Much better than previous versions

Foscam Home Security

I don’t understand the negative reviews. I have been a Foscam user for over 15 years, and the system and support are second to none. My family members have used Ring, Boykeep, and SwitchBot with horrible outcomes. I use a Foscam FN3109 9-channel NVR which continuously records 9 of my 11 indoor and outdoor cameras. I’ve also used their cloud service for roughly 10 years. When I have an issue (on those rare occasions), customer support is quick, thorough, and always spot on with help.
