Never streams. Videos work, no streaming.

It used to stream or view remotely, the year nothing. Looked at fixes on A I but nothing worked. Deleted and reinstalled. Rebooted phone. Ugh.

Reset password

App is lame, first time user and registered as a new user and says my email already exists. Tried to reset password and got an email to reset but there’s no reset link, it takes me back to the home page to sign in. Deleted the app. Waste of time.
