### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on new Tesla

*2024-11-16*

I just bought a new Tesla Y and the USB that they come with is not compatible with this app.

### 1/5 — UI is terrible and no way to merge clips

*2024-09-22, version 4.9.2*

There is no way to merge the individual saved clips into one export. Worthless.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-08-16, version 4.9.1*

I love this standalone app to view my sentry recordings fast. I also received a great support form the developer.

### 1/5 — 이거 사기어플입니다 절대 다운받지 마시오

*2022-09-16*

어떤 블로그 들어갔다가 이어플 좋다고 해서 리뷰 보지도 않고 구매했다가 망했네요 아무것도 영상 재생 되지않습니다 절대로 구매하지마세요

### 5/5 — Good app like of from this developer

*2022-08-27, version 4.9*

This app is great and it’s one of a suite of tesla apps he makes.

### 3/5 — 지도가 폴더 상단에 나오는 위치로 고정입니다.

*2022-07-23*

다른 위치에서 촬영된 영상도 폴더 가장 위쪽에 있는 영상의 위치로 고정되어 나타납니다. 위치 설정 확인 부탁드립니다.

### 5/5 — Great support for great app

*2022-05-26, version 4.9*

I reported a bug in the app to the developer and within a couple of hours it was fixed and the update was in the App Store.

### 4/5 — Finally a useful and efficient Sentry viewing app for Tesla

*2022-05-06*

I’ve been using a free app for viewing footages because I could not find anything useful out there. This is my second app from this developer and I do find both of the apps useful. This app can be a bit clunky but trust me, it is easy and practical to use. I can view and scrub, delete, find videos with ease. You will want to get the person detect feature. It’s just a one time small fee for something that will “turbo” boost the usefulness of this app. You know Tesla owners are usually paranoid lol so I check if anybody gets too close to our babies. :) It does crash occasionally but reopening the app is quick and doesn’t bother me. My only wish is to be able to  natively save single videos other than the composite. The screen recording method can be clunky but doable if needed. Oh and if you  have an issue, the developer responds quickly, either through Twitter or email.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2022-01-26, version 4.7*

Won’t load vids consistently. Crashes. I’d like my money back please.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2021-11-22, version 4.7*

Using instructions provided, the app does not work.
