### 2/5 — No support

*2019-06-16, version 3.4.0*

App worked fine for a couple of years. Now i can no longer record or snap pics with it. Support just ignore my requests about the issue. I suspect that app developer is no longer supporting the app and as devices upgrade os the app is not getting updated. I used a apple iphone - great product at a competitive price point but lack of support will do a product in every time

### 4/5 — Works but needs improvement

*2018-12-18, version 3.4.0*

The App works fine on my iPhone 7plus. But it needs a way to keep track of my settings. NVR is 16 channel capable but I only have 7 cameras. EVERY time I go into the app it goes into the 16 camera view and I have to change it. If the app gets put into the background for any reason, I have to log back in and start over. Even if I have to log back in, it would be nice if it went back to where I was. I also have one camera oriented in the vertical mode. Would be nice if it displayed that way. The biggest hassle though is that it doesn’t remember my settings for screen format.

### 2/5 — UPDATE

*2018-10-31, version 3.4.0*

this app desperately needs an update. Can’t check recoded playback, can’t search for footage. All I can do is live feed. Bugs need to be removed.

### 4/5 — Update??

*2017-11-11, version 3.4.0*

I have been using the mobile app with no issues for at least four years now.  All of a sudden, it has stopped working.... I’m guessing it has something to do with the iOS 11 upgrade and that is unacceptable. This will be a reason to not upgrade to a new REVO system when I’m ready to do so. UPDATE: issues are all resolved!!!!!! Thanks!!

### 2/5 — Freezing app

*2017-11-10, version 3.4.0*

There’s an issue with the app where I press the dvr name to view the cameras and it just freezes and nothing happens. This has been going on all day.

### 1/5 — Crashing Junk

*2017-09-09, version 3.4.0*

App continues to crash and disconnect. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Business owner

*2017-05-29, version 3.4.0*

Used to work until cameras started going out and so when I fixed them and tried to look at them again, the revo app won't work. Tries to delete and download again and now NOTHING. No phone number to call. ANNOYING!

### 1/5 — Disconnects

*2017-03-15, version 3.4.0*

This app was working and now it says disconnected 0.

### 1/5 — Slow

*2017-02-10, version 3.4.0*

I work there will be an update so because it cant watch anything

### 1/5 — Useless

*2017-02-09, version 3.4.0*

Doesn't work. Scan fail.

### 1/5 — Scan Fail

*2017-01-17, version 3.4.0*

Just like the other reviews. Needs to be updated. Scan Fail error while trying to log in.

### 1/5 — Can't even log in

*2016-12-21, version 3.4.0*

Had no problems with previous version. But now it comes up with a scan error every time I try to use the app

### 3/5 — Good APP

*2016-09-27, version 3.4.0*

Slow response time in the app. Maybe because it's been 10 months since an update! Sound does not work when searching and scanning previous recordings. Please get an update soon!!!

### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2016-04-04, version 3.4.0*

It worked once and it was great. Then when I tried to login again, I received scan fail error or a username and password error. Unfortunately my client was not impressed when it wouldn't work on his iPhone either after I raved about it working great before.

### 1/5 — Sound quality horrible

*2015-11-18, version 3.2.5*

They used to be very good and suddenly became horrible. I have 75 Mbps in most of my offices and could not make sense of the audio this days. Please make the adjustment quickly in the next update. Thanks

### 1/5 — Still very mad!

*2015-08-11, version 3.2.2*

This update didn't help fix the sound! Still hear clicking noises very upset

### 4/5 — FIX!!!!!

*2015-08-07, version 3.2.2*

the audio is still not working! i thought that this "new" update would  do it but it still not working! i get distored noise.

### 1/5 — UPDATE the APP for IOS

*2021-05-21, version 3.8.5*

HELLO Developer please make an UPDATE for IOS user!!!!  It worked fine this morning and now it stopped working altogether!! It was a nice app!! Not no more

### 1/5 — Unable to access DVR

*2020-03-01, version 3.8.5*

Please update. No longer can view using LTE or 4G and has problems accessing live view from home using WiFi. Only works if you connect at WiFi from location the dvr is located.

### 1/5 — The app keeps crashing when you do search

*2019-10-16, version 3.8.4*

The app works only when I watch live. If you wanna search a time it crashes. Bad update

### 1/5 — Useless

*2019-09-24, version 3.8.3*

This app simply does not work no matter what settings you use.  Worked for a little while when first installed. Defeats the purpose of wanting to monitor your cameras when away from home. Will be getting a complete new system.

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2019-05-10, version 3.4.0*

No wonder this app has two stars. It does not tell you at all how to hook up to your dvd all it says in the booklet is see instructions for mobile on the cd. Go there and it says the exact same thing. I have no idea how to view my cameras on this app..

### 1/5 — Hasn’t worked since IOS 12 update

*2018-10-05, version 3.4.0*

App hasn’t worked since IOS 12 update. Developers haven’t released an update in over 2 years.

### 1/5 — POS APP

*2018-03-04, version 3.4.0*

Total waste of time. Thank god I didn’t pay anything for it. Will stick with Samsung.

### 1/5 — Stopped working with latest iOS update

*2017-11-10, version 3.4.0*

Please fix.

### 1/5 — Haven’t seen garbage like this since the 90’s

*2017-11-08, version 3.4.0*

Same account, same location, same dvr, same cameras - worked for about a year now no connection between the dvr and the app.  Constant scan fail error.

Not only does Revo’s interface look like DOS from the 90’s, it’s about as dependable as software from the 90’s - kind of the OPPOSITE of what you REQUIRE for a security system.

AVOID REVO - they’re awful.

### 1/5 — Outdated iPhone Only

*2017-10-05, version 3.4.0*

The old Revo app will no longer work with iOS after updating to iOS 11. This was never an iPad app anyway so please create an app that works!  I can't log into my system at all with this one so will have to hold back from iOS 11 on my other devices until REVO gets serious about their systems. This should really have no stars but that choice wasn't an option.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2025-07-14, version 4.3.0*

Helps me stay connected

### 5/5 — Not working on the iPhone anymore

*2021-08-04, version 4.3.0*

REVO has been excellent for my security needs (cameras and remote viewing), until recently 8/3/2021. I cannot use my iPhone to view my cameras. My iPhone version is 14.7.1. 

The last REVO version was updated to iOS 13x. 

Please help!

Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great App!!

*2017-03-17, version 3.4.0*

I was looking for a update and saw the low reviews... Must be there competition, cause my stuff is old covered and in a quarter inch of dirt on top a false ceiling running strong over 4 years now! Two thumb clicks and I am looking at every inch of my business.
 Second to none - tech support in the few instances I needed it :-))

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2015-03-31, version 3.2.0*

By far the best camera system for small business and home.

### 5/5 — Iphone plus issues

*2014-09-30, version 3.1.5*

I have been using this app for 3 plus years. iPhone 6 plus back online after the new update. thank you for your great service

### 5/5 — Works with iPhone 6 now!

*2014-09-30, version 3.1.5*

Update 9-29: it is working now on my iPhone 6--thanks for the update!

It continues to crash even after deleting & reinstalling on iPhone 6. Please update to stop crashing.

### 5/5 — iOS 8

*2014-09-28, version 3.1.5*

Worth the wait. So far so good with the new version. Revo still the best out there.

### 5/5 — ISO 8 iPhone 6

*2014-09-28, version 3.1.5*

Thanks for fixing the app. Works great.

### 5/5 — iOS 8 issues

*2014-09-24, version 3.1.0*

Mobile app is working after iOS 8 update... When will this be resolved?

### 5/5 — I love this app!!! ios 8 update needed!!!

*2014-09-20, version 3.1.0*

It works great for me except that I need to charge my iphone more often. I would love it more If they could update the battery issue. One thing I am looking forward to in a future update is a feature that allows me to hear the audio in search mode.
