### 2/5 — Camera

*2016-04-08*

Please update!!! Works horrible with iOS 9.3. All I can do is see video can not access features! Haven't been updated since 2013?!?! Guardian alarm should be ashamed for using this app. Update update update update update

### 2/5 — Good when it works

*2015-06-12*

When it works (which is not very often) it is great. Problem is that the app crashes about 90% of the time if it opens at all (which is most of the time). These guys need some serious stability programming.

### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE THIS SYSTEM OR APP!!!

*2015-01-27*

This app is terrible. I cannot watch the video live! I was guaranteed that it would be available on my phone to watch live. The app doesn't work. It crashes constantly on the off chance that it does decide to work. Please fix this. Asap. Please please please

*2012-06-15*
