### 2/5 — La caméra ne bouge pas

*2026-04-22*

Faut il passer à la version pro ! Je viens de régler les 5,99€ aucune différence , ah si j’ai juste le son !

### 4/5 — Great app for the price

*2024-11-30*

The reason it is only 4 stars is because its the lite version. This is a reliable and fairly priced software. What it lacks in its graphical user interface, it more than makes up for its wide range of support and features.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work in bridge network

*2024-05-14*

Worked fine in a network that had ip forwarding between the WiFi and Ethernet where the cameras are. Refuses to connect to cameras (plain rtsp over tcp) in a network where WiFi and Ethernet are parts of network bridge. Every other app works…

### 3/5 — Lagging connection

*2023-05-05, version 4.0.3*

Added 2 local IP cams without an issue to the free lite version of the app, my question is does the lagging disappear if I upgrade to the paid pro version?

### 4/5 — I’m so happy

*2023-02-06*

Thank you so much for creating this app I use contacts to manage my cameras in my home and there is no app that I can find besides this on that supports contacam
However only giving 4/5 stars because the app does not feel as modern as others or look as nice could use more modern background and buttons

### 4/5 — HTTP Authentication Digest does not work

*2022-09-12*

Trying to use “motion” stream with digest authentication, but can not auth.

### 3/5 — Flexible but Drains Battery

*2021-12-28*

Offers a lot of welcome flexibility for connecting to different types of cameras. However, it drains the battery even when ts not open. You have to swipe up to close it completely when done using it.

### 2/5 — Not work now ?

*2021-12-10*

What you change in update?
Now it doesn t work ?

### 2/5 — App is good, support is non-responsive

*2021-10-22*

I got the app setup with all my cameras and it works well. I paid for the upgrade to the full version but I’m not able to share it with my wife (even though all the other apps work since we have family sharing enabled). I have sent 2 emails to the developer but have not heard back.

### 1/5 — Enganoso

*2021-09-23*

Lixo

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with Zoneminder

*2021-09-15, version 3.7.8*

Stopped working with Zoneminder a couple of months ago. No info on updates or anything about if it will ever work with Zoneminder again.

### 2/5 — Can get support !

*2021-08-26*

Tried lite version. Seemed acceptable. Needed more cams to be added (which I cant add, need assistance, hello? Anyone out there or do you care?) So I upgraded to pro. My app still says LITE, I still CANNOT DO FAMILY SHARING with my spouse. This is one of the reasons I paid money and bought the app. No way to get assistance. Not the best app , yet. Will upgrade my rating if assistance is rendered.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert leider nicht mehr

*2021-07-25*

Habe die Lite Version die eigentlich jahrelang gut lief. In der letzten Zeit werden die Kameras aber nicht mehr gefunden. Schade.

### 1/5 — Displays Pornographic Ads

*2026-03-03, version 4.0.5*

The free version has started displaying ads for porno sites alongside camera images. NOT family-friendly.

### 1/5 — Unusable & Outdated

*2025-07-12, version 4.0.5*

Can’t add IP cameras.

### 1/5 — Cannot add camera

*2024-10-12, version 4.0.5*

Cannot get past the screen that does a find by manufacturer and model. No way to continue from there. iOS 18

### 1/5 — PTZ Failed

*2024-03-17, version 4.0.5*

PTZ control doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Ads are now in the paid version

*2022-12-13, version 4.0.1*

I paid for the non ad version years ago.. Now I'm getting ads all the sudden

### 1/5 — No sound

*2022-09-04, version 3.9.6*

There is no sound for hikvision ds 2cd2432-iw, and the video&audio is set in cam cfg. It used to work.

### 1/5 — 4,99€ für nichts bezahlt

*2022-08-25*

Die App vergisst meine Cameras nach jedem Neustart! Von wegen nach Inapp-Kauf entspricht sie der Pro- Version!
Alles was verschwindet, sind die nervige Werbung und die Möglichkeit zum Kauf (immerhin wird man nur einmal abgezockt).
Offensichtlich bin ich nicht der einzige Betroffene, siehe Rezensionen….
Bananen-Software, reift beim Kunden! 
Ohne mich, ich will mein Geld zurück!

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-05-18*

Tried the Lite version to see if it was worth buying the full version.
Wouldn’t find any of my cams, Foscam, Dericam and IeGeek.
So disappointed as I had great hopes

### 1/5 — What happened?

*2022-04-18*

This used to be a great app. I paid for the pro version and a little by little features seemed to disappear. Now I’m lucky if I can get my cameras to come up in five minutes. Total piece of crap now don’t waste your money. The developer talks about updates are coming updates are coming but they never happened. So sorry that I paid for this piece of junk.

### 1/5 — Nothing displayed

*2022-02-09*

I have to correct my previous review of positive recommendation since this app does not work at all after brief display. Reinstalling shows only one successful display of camera images then give blank image. I guess there is a bug that needs to be corrected.

### 5/5 — Einfach und genial

*2026-04-25*

April 2026 Die Einrichtung der Kameras ist Kinderleicht, sofern sie Onvif unterstützen und man IP und Onvif Port kennt.
Ansonsten geht es auch gut über RTSP Port. Wichtig ist einzig, dass man die Daten der Kamera kennt.

### 5/5 — UI may not be perfect but functions are complete

*2025-10-19*

This app does not have a fancy user interface but its IP camera functions are relatively complete compared to most other apps. Its one-time upgrade fee makes this app affordable for everyone. It may take a while to understand how to add cameras. Once it is done, this app is pretty handy to use.

### 5/5 — Super

*2024-05-07*

First app that works!!!

### 5/5 — Super App pour visualiser tous types de caméra

*2022-09-19*

Depuis des années j'utilise cette application pour visualiser et piloter mes caméras et celles d'amis. Actuellement 16 caméras sont connectées, de marques différentes, et tout va bien. Je n'ai jamais eu de gros problème. En cas de soucis ou besoin d'un conseil, le développeur répond rapidement. Je suis en général assez critique, ici  je ne trouve pas d'option à réclamer.

### 5/5 — Excellent App.

*2022-05-17*

Work with all my different brand ( no brand IP camera also ). The scan feature is very useful to help to configure the camera to the App. if the parameters are not known . The programmer has done a excellent work with many settings ( profile ) so it can be possible to control from the App. most feature of camera ( PTZ , Preset , sound ) . Very stable App.with some exclusive functions. Paid to remove advertisements, very satisfied Thank you, work great on my Open VPN tunnel .

### 5/5 — Update in Deutsch

*2022-02-02*

Hi hab schon viel gutes gehört von der App auch als Vollversion würde sie mir gerne Installieren gibt es bald auch mal ein Update auf Deutsch dann bin ich sofort dabei 
Mit freundlichen Gruß

### 5/5 — Pas mal

*2021-11-11*

La seule application qui me permet de voir mes caméras szinocam , foscam et dahua.
J ai acheté l application mais la lite marche mieux! 
Seul le son ne marche pas pour parler !

### 5/5 — Works great

*2020-11-06, version 3.6.5*

I have Zmodo NVR and the app works great for up to 6 cameras, need to upgrade to pro version to view more cameras

### 5/5 — Quick updates and response time

*2020-11-04*

iOS 14.1 had many issues affecting many apps and these guys were quick to resolve any conflicts with apples latest bug filled update!!
    Great Work!!

### 5/5 — Enfin une appli qui marche !!! Merci

*2020-10-23*

Cela fait des jours que je cherche désespérément une application pour visualiser et contrôler ma caméra ip achetée il y a également quelques jours. Soucis rencontré pour ma caméra, pas de marque, logiciel inutilisable et donc aucune notice. 
Après un nombre incalculable d’essai d’applications, j’ai ENFIN trouvé une application qui me permette de voir et de bouger ma caméra. Et en prime gratuit !!  Merciiiii !!! 
Seul hic pour l’instant, ça n’a l’air de marcher qu’en wifi. 
(Si d’autres ont trouvé comment voir aussi à distance je suis preneuse ^^)
