App Was Great….

I’ve been using this a couple of years, and it was great. But the recent overhaul is wretched. Took me forever to figure out the most basic functions.

Update brought chaos

After an auto update from Owltron both cameras constantly go off line even after deleting and resetting everything they work again the bang off line an hour later they completely forget the IP settings ….absolute nightmare

Recent update

The app was recently reviewed and in my opinion it’s not as good. Before the update there was a notification icon at the top that showed you a snapshot of what was detected and you could click on it there. Now you don’t have that or any sort of timeline. You just
have to scroll through forever to look for something.

Ganz mies 👎

Die App benötigt man, um eine Kamera zu benutzen. Sämtliche Datenschutzverbrechen müssen akzeptiert werden 👎 Ganz miese Übersetzung 👎 Kein Support 👎😏

Indoor Owltron camera

iPad app has not been working for a few weeks but the iOS iPhone app is ok.
I have uninstalled and installed a few times but still not working on iPad. Just shows a blank screen.
I am thinking of buying a different brand.
Why is iPad app not working
app deveopers? Thanks

Ads

What is with the ADs? Everytime I open the app, ad comes on. This isn’t why I got a camera to watch ads. Take them off the app or I’m going to have to switch to another camera company.

Does not work on iPad after iOS 26 update

Gets as far as the spinning icon, but then the ad page fails to load. Just a plain white screen no further progress. Worked fine before the update.

Mediocre Camera

Lots of bugs , app barely works . Recently updated the app in hopes it’ll work better , all they did was add some Ads to the app. A mandatory ad page you have to get past to get to your actual camera footage . App has been fine the last few years until recently , will be moving on to a new company and trashing this camera as soon as possible.

Limited iPad Abilities

Cannot go full screen on an iPad in multi view. Sometimes it will go full screen when turning the iPad horizontal, but it’s not reliable. We tap around on buttons and eventually it may work. So instead we have tiny video on a large iPad screen and there’s so much wasted space.

Edit August 2025: The app forces you to watch an ad before you can see the camera image. The ad takes forever to load, then the app counts down before you can close the ad. Highly recommend buying ANY other camera.

Ads make this unusable

I have been using Owltron for the last 5 months and it’s been ok. Not great but good enough for my purposes. In the last couple weeks the app has been nothing but ads and disconnects. If I wanted ads I’d get a game, not a security camera system. This and their “ai” which has turned on multiple times after disabling makes me extremely suspicious about its security and how safe my video actually is with them.

Full page ads

App worked well with my camera, but a recent update starting playing a full screen ad whenever you open the app. Even if you disable it, you get a full screen notification asking you to turn them back on. I already bought the camera, why am I getting ads to use it?

H

I purchased a camera from this company and all you get when you open the app is bloody adverts. You don’t expect this when you have paid for a service 😡 got so fed up with advertising I decided to take the camera down and throw it away. It’s a load of rubbish, steer clear

Incredibly intrusive advertisements

This app used to be better, but lately there are ads that take up the entire screen and are intentionally difficult to bypass. Purchase a different camera brand instead.

Good product, annoying ads when using the app

While the cameras are good, the pushed ads when using with the app are simply annoying

Definitely recọmmend

If you’re looking for something affordable, easy to install, and reliable — this is a solid choice. I’m happy I found it.
