Best for Insteon cameras.
When Smarthome closed I was instantly left with many unusable cameras. I tried several solutions requiring typing long url strings with little success. Owlr discovered all my different cameras and configured them automatically. Amazing! Love the ease and the interface. Bravo!
Not a fan
I installed this app and added one of my cameras. Tried it out and am going to uninstall it.
Touching the video image performs a tilt/pan control. You can’t disable that and is very annoying / nuisance as this accidentally happens frequently.
No camera specific controls for preset positions, night vision on/off etc.
This is as basic as it gets.

Constant Requests to Share Location
Asking once would be acceptable but this app asks to share your location every time you use the app. Users who know how to configure IP cameras have no need for this feature. Would recommend using a different app to access IP cameras.
Works great!
I have tried my share of ip cam apps and this one works great. Only flaw is that I can’t get PTZ to work on two Trendnet cameras. No big deal- I only have had one app that did and I still like this one better.

Hi there - Thank you for you support and 5 stars. Please write to us on support@owlr.com foo further questions or queries.
Unresponsive
I downloaded this app because of the somewhat good reviews so that I can use with an indoor security camera. There are only a select few cameras this app is compatible with. It states in the app that if you need a particular camera brand added all you have to do is email them. I sent multiple emails in hopes of at least getting a response if the camera was compatible or not. Crickets!!! No response to any of the emails. The app does have tutorials, but they are confusing. It needs to a lot of work. I would not recommend this app if you are not familiar with the terminology related to security camera systems.
