If I have been forced to give it 1 star, it is because 0 star is not an option. Best avoided….. ### 1/5 — Can’t login but can with other link platforms. *2020-10-27* Can’t login but can with other link platforms. Not very impressed with HIK tools anyway. Time to look for another system and better functioning apps. ### 1/5 — Dont work on iphone x *2018-01-13, version 2.3.101* Dont work on iphone x ### 1/5 — DOESNT WORK *2017-08-08, version 2.3.000* Does not work! ### 1/5 — Раскладка *2017-03-11, version 2.2.302* Не сохраняется раскладка камер, в отличии от версии для Андроида! ### 1/5 — Would be a great app except for one issue *2017-03-02* Despite many searches for a solution, I can only find other people complaining about the same issue: after setting up a device with multiple cameras, it works for a while then only displays one camera. The only workaround seems to be deleting the device and setting it up again. This gets very annoying very quickly. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2017-01-28, version 2.2.100* Doesn't seem to let you do very much from the mobile app ## Frequently asked questions about iVMS ### What devices does iVMS-5260 support? iVMS-5260 is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod devices running iOS 7.0 or higher. ### How often is iVMS-5260 updated?
