Trying to scam you

If you bye The app it may be done but DO NOT ENTER ANY OF YOUR ICLOUD OR EMAIL INFO THEY ARE TRYING TO SCAM YOU AND STEAL YOUR MONEY!!!!

SECURITY RISK FOR PHISHING

This app requires entering one’s personal email and the email password to get to one’s actual email server, such as Google, in order to send messages, and it doesn’t allow you to do that via the secure GMail protocol!

This is a serious data risk and utterly not fine by app developers!

I WAJT A FULL REFUND NOW!

Cumbersome to use and misses the mark

Starts recording immediately when you launch the app as soon as it detects motion. There should be a start stop function. It doesn't record as long as it detects motion, you need to set a record length. This doesn't seem well thought out. If I'm trying to catch an animal that goes in the detection area quickly, it seems it will record for the set record length until it detects motion again. I find it too difficult to use to be useful at this time.

Motion detector doesn't work on my 10.2 iPhone.

Great ideas for features, but couldn't get it to work on iPhone 10.2. I tried selecting the area for motion, but it rises up 10% on the detection screen. So I made it lower to compensate for that. Only records or sounds alarm when I move the phone. Reset motion to whole image and restarted. It seems to detect motion in the levels, about 30%, but won't record unless I move the phone. Also, why isn't there an on-off activation button to arm/disarm the recorder? The only way I can stop it from triggering and recording while I'm trying to work on the settings is to shut down the app and restart.
Requests: if a working version gets updated, I would like the ability to record less than 1 minute, and the ability to have more than 3 sensitivity levels. Maybe just a line to let us enter the variable ourselves.

Not good for monitoring

It works as concept but far away from my need. Even if I set high sensitivity it won't detect small moving objects at all
