### 2/5 — Review

*2026-07-08*

Been using this for about 3 years now, it only catch certain movements and only record for 30 seconds. I’ve changed the settings and still no luck with it. Battery does last a week or longer. Now I’m dealing with it saying “offline” without any additional information. Frustrating I must say.

### 2/5 — Tracker does not work well

*2026-06-10, version 8.6.6*

It’s continuously panning to a stationary plant that does not move and a jacket. It’s identifying them as vehicles and a person and will not track the moving cats 90% of the time.

### 1/5 — Gets worse every day

*2026-06-07, version 8.6.6*

Terrible app

### 4/5 — わるくないが

*2026-04-23*

カメラによるのかもしれないが接続も早いしわるくないが、検知しすぎてうざい。風で木が揺れて検知はまぁわかる。雨、虫が横切るのに検知するのどうにかして。雨の日の通知地獄なんとかして

### 4/5 — Slow Loading Server

*2026-04-16*

Previously I used IPC 360 app, which I was very happy with until the developers quit supporting it. They suggested to transfer to this app. I have 3 cameras using this app and I constantly get the message “Loading the Server”. Sometimes I get the message that the Wi-Fi is poor quality or some other type of message. When I go to the camera and check the signal strength it is always excellent. I’m very frustrated with the quality of this app.

### 1/5 — App won’t stay logged in

*2026-03-16, version 8.6.3*

Was good first week.

### 1/5 — Camera

*2026-03-13, version 8.6.3*

Since the last update my camera is blurry whereas it was very clear before. Please fix this

### 1/5 — Patchy

*2026-02-23, version 8.6.2*

Half the time it won’t let me log in and/or can’t connect to server. Really annoying.

### 2/5 — THIS APP IS MESSING UP PLEASE FIX IT.

*2026-02-23, version 8.6.2*

TELL ME TO LOGIN WHEN I AM ALREADY LOGGED IN. TOO MANY ISSUES CANNOT NAME ALL OF THEM JUST PLEASE 🙏🏽 FIX THIS APP!!

### 4/5 — Four hours later…

*2026-02-11, version 8.6.2*

PRO TIP!!!! open the app and forcefully close a bunch of times will force the server to connect so you don’t have to wait.
