### 1/5 — Garbage product

*2020-05-20*

Can’t connect

### 1/5 — Not Good !!!

*2020-03-15, version 2.3.13*

Used to work! App changed now useless can’t sign in or get to work .... best place -the bin

### 1/5 — Won’t scan QR code

*2020-01-27*

Can’t even set up

### 1/5 — Can’t connect

*2020-01-12*

Can’t connect

### 1/5 — Not good value

*2019-12-01, version 2.3.13*

The camera works fine. The image quality is fine. But you can’t use it as a security alert without paying a subscription. Crazy that after paying loads of money for the camera, it doesn’t use native apple push notifications of a movement without paying Phillips £79 a year. You should be able to just get a push alert and the. Open app and record locally. You should not have to store recordings in the cloud if you don’t want to.

### 1/5 — Cameras stop working after 6 months

*2019-08-28, version 2.3.13*

Bought 4 of these, after 6 months only 3 work even after a hard reset. Enough said.

### 1/5 — Cant connect

*2019-04-01*

Camera wont scan the QR waste of time

### 3/5 — Too many notifications

*2018-09-25, version 2.3.13*

You get notified of movement, even if you’re at home. So I end up getting 100s of notifications. Otherwise interface works fine

### 1/5 — Trash.

*2018-09-10*

This device never connects, it doesn’t read the QR code. You will pull your hair out trying to connect it. What a waste.

### 2/5 — App is fine but set up is terrible

*2017-09-12, version 2.3.13*

Rather than simply being able to type in your connection details you have to try and get the camera to scan a QR code. I have spent hours resetting, and waving the QR code in front of the damn thing without getting it to connect. The help desk is no use either they just assume it's your fault

### 1/5 — Awful doesn't work

*2017-08-18, version 2.3.13*

Please avoid these cameras, this is my second insight camera and they are very temperamental. I will not be buying Philips again, shame used to be such a good make.

### 3/5 — Not bad, some UX/UI improvements could be made

*2017-05-09, version 2.3.13*

The monitor is fairly good and easy to set up/use (ours is stand-alone, we don't subscribe). However, I think the app user interface has room for improvement; simple things like improved full screen options for landscape iPad and using a black background to avoid illuminating the parent's bedroom all night as the iPad sits on the night stand monitoring baby. More flexible mounting options for the camera would be a bonus too, e.g. compatibility with standard camera/tripod/gorilla grip equipment... I hope feedback from 'real life use' of the equipment and app is taken into consideration by the developers and such improvement made - that would be good customer service! ;)

### 1/5 — Can not connect

*2017-04-14*

The camera never scans the QR code

### 2/5 — Possible ios10 problem

*2016-09-17, version 2.3.13*

Notifications no longer come through after updating iPhone 6 to ios10... always worked fine before the update! Same on the wife's phone, updated no longer get notifications. We use this as a baby monitor, thankfully only for video, use a traditional monitor as well. It was really handy getting the notifications!! Checked settings on phone and app all ok! Please check out this problem had release a fix 👍

### 1/5 — Rubbish - don't purchase!

*2016-09-07, version 2.3.13*

My baby is upstairs and the camera is constantly disconnecting. We are needing to buy a second video monitor for peace of mind. Total waste of money for us - spend yours on a worthwhile camera!

### 1/5 — Not comparable with IOS 9

*2016-07-24, version 2.3.13*

Everything works great but since updating to IOS 9.3.3 I don't get any notifications!?!?

### 1/5 — 1 day good-broken since

*2016-04-26, version 2.3.13*

Between the BN120/10 and this app, completely lost all confidence. Firstly 'live video disconnected ' then in effort to solve issues have been unable to pair the monitor and phone/iPad. V. Poor!!!

### 1/5 — Don’t buy this product

*2024-02-06*

I bought this monitoring camera. App is not working. There website has no info for tech support. There no is tech support phone number on their site. Rip off product manufacturer. They have M100 old model camera. And now M 120. App is not recognizing camera by scanning to add a camera. No tech support is available for it

### 1/5 — Don’t buy this product

*2024-01-31*

Rip off product manufacturer

### 1/5 — Bin it

*2022-05-01, version 2.3.13*

I spent a lot of money on these cameras some years back.Had them when travelling to keep a eye on the cats while away.
Haven’t used them for a while because of covid travel restrictions.
Don’t work at all now, cameras won’t connect so they are going in the bin. I won’t be buying a Philips product ever again because of this!

### 1/5 — Terrible app never connects & support discloses wlan info

*2021-04-13*

Tried to connect a dozend times in vain.
Asked for support, support asked me to share QR-code. In their answer they disclosed my w-lan password and asked for the w-lan name🙈
Don‘t buy this device unless you want gray hair!

### 1/5 — Connection lost

*2021-04-13, version 2.3.13*

Most probably due to new iOS version, app can’t connect to the camera anymore (Local Network Access permission might be a reason, which is not available in Settings for the app). Can can’t be used at the moment. Can you please update the app so it can be used again?

### 1/5 — Useless like Joz Denny said!!

*2020-12-30*

Completely useless camera with a completely useless app.The system will not get past reading the code after light flashes amber. After wifi set up, your screwed. Will not read code of flash green. U S E L E S S ! ! !

### 1/5 — Ok hardware shame about the rest

*2020-11-15, version 2.3.13*

Glad I didn’t pay for these! The camera quality itself is good but that’s about it. All my notifications say the exact same date and time (19th Jan) even reinstalling apps and setting up cameras has not resolved the issue! The fact you need to pay for recording and only to the cloud is a joke

### 1/5 — Useless.....

*2020-09-10*

Your help desk is just as bad.  I thought Phillips was a good company.  Can’t scan, get green light, etc.
What a waste of time. And no help from Phillips at all.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-07-27*

Horrible, nunca se conecta

### 1/5 — Zero recommendation

*2020-06-27*

Impossible to connect. Never thought Phillps and Apple could ruining own reputation with this kind of junk.

### 5/5 — Great product

*2017-09-19, version 2.3.13*

Very easy to use! Highly recommended

### 5/5 — Excellence!!

*2016-09-29, version 2.3.13*

Finally after 3 years of trying various HD wifi monitors, we have found one that is heads and shoulders above the rest! EXCELLENT sound quality, EXCELLENT picture, EASY to set up and multiple cameras can be connected to the App. Simply put.......EXCELLENCE 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Very Good and reliable

*2016-02-27, version 2.3.13*

Good image even in the Dark! Recommend it

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2016-01-31, version 2.3.13*

Have two camera - kitchen and living room, never have connection problems! I use them to keep an eye on my dogs, invaluable

### 5/5 — Excellent picture quality.....

*2015-11-03, version 2.3.7*

Very impressed with the camera and the ease of setting up. Worked straight out the box! I connected 2 cameras within 3 minutes. The app is very good. I just wish you could record the video for free!! £7.99 per month is a bit steep 😕

### 5/5 — LS

*2015-10-08, version 2.3.7*

The latest Insight software update appears to have fixed the issue with IOS 9. The system is that good many of my colleagues have now also purchased these cameras for remote viewing purposes! Can't fault the cameras even have one outside (not waterproof as it states) though under the porch canopy! Great system thank you for peace of mind.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2015-08-04, version 2.3.5*

A great app to check up on your home! The picture is clear and has a zoom option which is handy.

### 5/5 — Amazing little piece of technology

*2015-07-21, version 2.3.5*

Bought this to keep an eye on my Gran so we could check in on her. Definitely not disappointed. Great features include night vision, and the fact u can spk through it is just amazing. Of course we had a bit of fun playing about with it and trying it for different things. Great for spying on the dogs when out, also able to watch the car and see if someone has came in the door. I just live this, and app seems to work well, not experienced any problems so far 😊

### 4/5 — Great app and cam

*2017-01-09, version 2.3.13*

I've tried a few different baby cams looking for a solution to keeping an eye on my pet lizard while out.
This has temp/humidity sensor which if pretty accurate, good night vision , talk function . Very easy to set up 2mins and easy to add additional monitors (not the lizards!)basically all the features I could wish for and more but like others have said the notifications/alarms which worked perfectly last year became unreliable then ceased totally but I still love the app and hardware despite this failing. For the price range it's hard to beat.

### 4/5 — Fab pics and easy to set up

*2016-01-06, version 2.3.7*

The only thing stopping me from 5 stars is the fact you cannot ignore the request to store data - options being "show me more" or "remind me later".  I want neither - these cheap sales tactics are not something I'd expect from Phillips. 

Everything else is excellent.
