### 1/5 — App closes by itself

*2026-06-07, version 1.1.4*

I like the setting where you can turn on the human detection only and keep the motion detection off . Very helpful so it won’t record every motion like the Chinese camera but when I try to add my own alarm sound the app closes by itself and won’t let me add my own alarm. Please fix that and put that in your description ( you can turn on human detection only) you’ll sell a lot of these cameras.

### 5/5 — App & cameras

*2026-05-16, version 1.1.4*

This app is great, love the cameras.  We have 3     As long as WiFi reaches each camera they work fine.  We added an extra router to get all 3 to work well.  You can see at night without having the light on, our back yard is pitch black and we can see clear.  I like being able to turn off/on the light even when I am away from home.  We replaced 2 of our old security lights with these light cameras.

### 1/5 — Poor Services

*2026-05-08, version 1.1.4*

It doesn’t work with Bell Aliant

### 1/5 — Doesn’t let me log on at all

*2026-05-06, version 1.1.4*

The app shuts down when I try to log on. Already made 2 accounts and neither work

### 1/5 — I’m hot or cold

*2026-04-14, version 1.1.4*

So I’ve been using this camera for over a year. I’ve gone thru 3. User error. I see everyone’s negative reviews and can’t help but agree with them. Unfortunately that’s not why I left one star. After playing with it over time, I was able to Taylor the camera settings to my liking. It works fine. Records fine, clear picture, and the light bulbs really bright. The reason why it got 1 star is because the android app, which is the phones use the most, doesn’t have features that iOS has. Which I don’t use a lot. So if the android app gets the bugs fixed, I’ll change to a 5 star. Truly I love this product.

### 1/5 — Could not connect

*2026-04-10, version 1.1.4*

Says I had to set my phone to 2.4 ghz
Tried on my iPhone 14 and couldn’t figure out how to get to settings for 2.4 ghz.
Never had this problem with my other cameras settings on 2.4ghz

### 1/5 — Lots of issues

*2026-03-25, version 1.1.4*

Been through many cameras. Just for them to keep breaking.   The app never works.  You can leave your house and the cameras are offline till you get back home   Very scary when you need to keep a look out for danger  even if the cameras aren’t offline the app says it’s disconnected that’s just insane. There no update on the app to make sure your cameras are in working order.    I have to look for different cameras  so my home is protected  do not buy. Only
But if you want cheap cameras that constantly. Breaks.  Waste of money

### 1/5 — Junk

*2026-03-20, version 1.1.4*

These are absolute junk. Refuses to connect to my WiFi, even placed it in a lamp right next to it, NOPE. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

### 1/5 — No notifications

*2026-02-26, version 1.1.4*

I can’t get the app to send notifications unless I’m actually using the it.

### 3/5 — Minor issues

*2026-02-15, version 1.1.4*

Currently not receiving notifications or alerts when motion is detected. 
After opening app it shows device not available but eventually it wakes up.
