But still no landscape viewing. I used another tablet in house to permanently view cameras and landscape viewing would be more sufficient on the main screen and the multi camera screen. Yes you can manually turn the individual camera (one at a time) and view it in landscape but when the monitor is already mounted on the wall (like most security monitors) they are stationary and doesn’t move. Giving the customer the option to permanently keep it in landscape mode on all screens/pages would help me out tremendously. ### 2/5 — Скорее не работает, чем работает... *2026-03-19* Регулярно подвисает. Если просматривать определенное время, то по пару минут за отрезок просто не существует, постоянно перекидывает. Хотела написать отзыв в приложении - "Сеть нестабильна. Не удается выполнить действия". То есть, если что-то случится, есть вероятность, что по камерам ничего не увижу, т.к. лента просмотра в реальном времени больше красная, чем синяя. ### 2/5 — Не могу *2026-02-27* Не могу посмотреть сохраненные видео с 19 февраля ### 4/5 — Не пишет уведомления о движении *2026-02-09* После 24 января не распознает движения по человеку что делать ### 3/5 — Zooming Bug *2026-01-06* Everytime i go to zoom in the camera freezes and stops loading. ### 1/5 — Won't accept alerts from my HVR so i don't get notifications *2025-12-18, version 6.9.484* I've changed every setting possible in this this thing, it won't send notifications to my phone no matter what i do. I've changed devices, same thing. support? hahaha non existent and this is what came with my HVR, which means i paid for it s somewhere along the line and it's useless. ### 1/5 — Время *2025-12-18* Как настроить время? ### 2/5 — Время. *2025-11-15* Подскажите, как настроить время на экране? Не совпадает с реальным временем ### 3/5 — Недоработки *2025-10-18* Нет маркера движения, записанного видео, много времени уходит на поиск! ### 1/5 — Приложение тормозит *2025-10-05* Очень тормозит приложение …. ### 2/5 — Orientation mode *2025-10-03, version 6.9.482* Security systems are best viewed in Landscape Mode (horizontal) for better use of full screen. This app does NOT allow automatic or forced Landscape Mode. Make the homepage automatically rotate according to the orientation of the device. The home page has an ICON to rotate it BUT this is unsatisfying because my tablet is mounted in Landscape Mode. If device is mounted vertically half of the screen is unused and camera viewing is smaller. Please make this app compatible with screen rotation according to the orientation of device. ### 1/5 — horrible *2025-09-26, version 6.9.482* Spent a few paychecks on this system and cannot get it online. Bought from Amazon, and the SN will not upload into the wifi portion of the system. no customer support options on the web...Needs special work around with starlink internet and still will not add device on the network. Wish I had never purchased. ### 1/5 — Don’t get this app! *2025-09-08, version 6.9.481* I bought this over priced add and after the download, it would not work! I was refused a refund! It wasn’t the money but the principal! ### 3/5 — После последнего обновления перестал на телефоне показывать изображение с камер *2025-08-26* После обновления перестал видеть изображение с камер ### 1/5 — Update is terrible *2025-08-26, version 6.9.481* App worked fine before update. After update, it is difficult to playback footage. Sometimes footage does not even load. If you manage to load footage, it lags and is unrealistic to view it. Loading cameras also takes an unbearabley long time. ### 1/5 — After the update, worsened *2025-08-09* Not happy at all. Very buggy and freezes! -100 ### 1/5 — Very buggy *2025-07-22* Very buggy. Seldom works. Huge regret getting this camera system. ### 1/5 — New update, have to wait 1 minute before video would play. Used to be instant. *2025-07-16, version 6.9.480* Not sure what was updated, but when a camera is clicked on, it shows waiting wave and takes a minute before the video would play. Used to be instant. Went to another phone with the older version of the app, works immediately. Please fix. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Download *2026-07-11* Very troubling to download ### 1/5 — App needs fixing *2026-06-28* App is giving issues connecting to the internet and giving continuous live feed after June 19th’s update. ### 1/5 — Time is now 15 minutes fast *2026-05-16* Why is the time showing on the app fifteen minutes fast? And getting worse ### 1/5 — Не работает на территории РФ *2026-05-14* Пожалуйста, настройте приложение и свои серверы чтобы в России заработало, уже месяц не возможно посмотреть трансляции, задать настройки и посмотреть архив. Войти в приложение невозможно: ошибка соединения с сервером! ### 1/5 — Не работает *2026-05-06* В один момент перестало показывать видео в записи. Долгая загрузка в режиме онлайн. Теперь сбой. Вылет из системы с невозможностью зайти вновь. ### 1/5 — Стало гораздо хуже! *2026-05-04* Не работает. ### 1/5 — Playback barely works *2026-02-15, version 6.10.882* If you’re not on the WiFi network, you cannot watch recorded footage. If you are on the Wi-Fi network, it will work at times. Would not invest in a system that ties into this app, it is a real exercise in frustration ### 1/5 — Очень плохое приложение *2026-02-12* Худшее приложение,никогда архив камеры не работают, превышено время ожидания и все, хотя прямой эфир показывает нормально ### 1/5 — Перестал работать *2026-02-04* Всё было хорошо сегодня 4 февраля ничего не работает,обновила но ничего не изменилось, Тайм-аут потоковой передачи устройства. Проверьте сетевое подключение устройства.В чём дело??? ### 1/5 — Terrible update *2026-01-04, version 6.10.880* Worked ok and last update brought playbacks issues same as on HiLook and Hikvsison apps. Lags, lost frames and some buffered video. That’s not bug fix but bug planting. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good until it’s not *2025-08-01, version 6.9.480* Simple action as changing WiFi password you find no support and terrible settings in app ### 5/5 — Adding an “activation icon” to the icon list *2024-11-14* Adding an “activation icon” to the icon list for the “manual” event trigger that is in the event configuration page of the IPC534 camera web GUI. Adding this would provide a Go Solo system Access Control function for opening doors and gates. Please consider. ### 5/5 — Calidad *2024-04-22, version 6.2.50* La calidad de las imagenes, son excelentes y la aplicaciòn. Lo recomiendo. ### 5/5 — Works great with RCA doorbell camera *2024-04-16, version 6.2.50* RCA security app no longer plays on latest apple IOS and no longer updates app. But Guarding Vision app works perfect use same username and password as RCA security and add doorbell using its serial number. It works more reliable then RCA security ever did ### 5/5 — Works great with my rca security cams *2024-04-06* My rca security cams stopped loading live feed app just crashed since ios 17 upgrade on my i phone 11 ,wasnt happy about it. always more money ... anyways this app works great with my cameras (4) and I can see my cams from my macbook air ,wasnt able to do that with the original app rca security,hopefully it will help others that have the same issue,seems like several have the same problem ### 5/5 — Cameras *2024-04-04* So awesome… having this security system brings so much of a comfort to your family ### 5/5 — Knowing what’s happening *2024-03-26, version 5.4.2* This app allows me the comfort of what’s happening in front of my home from the comfort of my bed and relieves having to run to the front window to see what’s going on! ### 5/5 — The Best *2024-03-15* I think this system is one of the best cameras out there.
