### 2/5 — 애플 업데이트후

*2022-11-19, version 1.3.2*

애플을 ios 16 으로 업데이트후 안돼요 .. 해외에 있어서 부모님을 이것을통해 뵐수 있는데 빨리 해결부탁 드립니다.

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요.  IOS 16에서는 이상이 없었고, IOS 16.1에서 버그가 있었습니다.  앱을 업데이트했으니 1.3.4 ver으로 업데이트 해서 사용해주시기 바랍니다.

### 1/5 — Camera only works if you’re on same network

*2022-04-07, version 1.3.2*

The camera is only functional if you are on the same Wi-Fi network, meaning you can’t see it when you leave the vicinity, which defeats the whole purpose!

### 1/5 — Never Again

*2025-04-05, version 1.3.4*

Samsung stopped my security camera cloud support to save on free lifetime storage.  I will never buy anything Samsung or use your apps.

### 1/5 — Samsung plus jamais !

*2025-02-12*

Application qui suite a des mises a jours supprime la connexion a certains modèles de cameras dans le temps, ce qui fait qu’elle devient inutilisable !
La réponse de Samsung a ce problème : changez de camera !
Ma réponse : samsung plus jamais !!! 😂😎

### 1/5 — Where is the compensation???

*2025-01-24, version 1.3.4*

Samsung smart cam has discontinued the software for their cameras.
WTH?
So am I supposed to use these cameras as decorations?

### 1/5 — Caméra considérée comme trop vieille pour l’application !

*2025-01-03*

L’application ne fonctionne plus de qui se moque t’on ?

### 1/5 — 갑자기 앱자체가 안열리네요

*2024-11-11, version 1.3.4*

너무너무 잘 쓰고 있엇고 애들 놀이방에서도 너무 잘쓰고 잇엇는데 갑자기 안되네요.. 아이폰에서 문제인건지 아니면 앱이 문젠건지… 분명 이틀전까지먼햐도 아무 문제 없엇는데 왜이러는 거죠?

### 1/5 — SNH-V6410PN

*2024-08-26, version 1.3.4*

I now have 6 cameras that I bought in the last year and a half that Samsung decided I don’t need to be able to view any longer leaving me no options and no ability to use them.

### 1/5 — Pure arnaque!!!

*2024-08-03*

Du jour au lendemain Samsung décide de squeezer les iPhone /apple.
L’appli ne fonctionne plus avec la caméra ../

Ciao Samsung je vais ailleurs.
Foutage de gu..le !!!

### 1/5 — Discontinuance of service

*2024-07-23, version 1.3.4*

Stopping the ability to view my Samsung cameras  and apparently all models like mine with no explanation makes it highly likely that I will not purchase any more Samsung products.

### 1/5 — Application non compatible avec io

*2024-07-23*

Samsung a supprimé  l’application pour iPhone ça ne fonctionne plus  . Depuis je n’achète plus cette marque car du jour au lendemain plus de mis à jour et aucun suivi de cette marque Samsung qui n’est plus dans les top des marques. Dommage !

### 1/5 — Mise à jour

*2024-02-21*

Ne faites surtout pas les mises à jour depuis la version v2.29.
Obsolescence des caméra Samsung ancienne pas de prise en charge. Société de consommation

### 5/5 — 빠르고 정확해요

*2023-05-02, version 1.3.4*

굿 프로그램!

### 5/5 — Clean app - only 2 small bugs

*2021-10-21*

(1) On the Home Screen when sliding down on the surveillance photo, it shows that it updates but the photo stays the same.
(2) The number of open notifications doesn’t show on the app icon (badges)

### 5/5 — Works great

*2021-02-12, version 1.2.8*

I will for sure recommend to my friends.

### 4/5 — After iOS16.1 update

*2023-01-07, version 1.3.4*

Connect to cctv in wifi network only after iOS16.1 update. Please check and update.

### 3/5 — Smart cam

*2024-09-16, version 1.3.4*

When I was logged in, it was fantastic. I could always check on my house. Now that I’m on Apple I can’t login.

### 3/5 — iOS 16 Makes This Software Useless

*2022-10-30, version 1.3.2*

Fortunately Apple’s 15.7.1 update is OK on my iPhone 11 Pro but since installing iOS 16 on my iPhone 13 Pro, SmartCam Lite will not recognize any of my five cameras. Then when trying to report the problem, Apple insisted this was not a registered “purchase” in my history. But that could be Apple’s issue. I waited to install iOS 16 because of issues like these. I hoped all the app vendors would have applied necessary fixes by now. Hanwha needs to step up their game.

Update: the app works if and only if connected to the same LAN as the cameras.  Otherwise it fails to find any registered cameras.

### 3/5 — 모든 기능이 의도한대로 잘 동작합니다.

*2022-03-12, version 1.3.2*

이제 거의 1년 사용한 것 같은데 외부에서 접속이 종종 끊어집니다. 앱 이외 접속 빙법은 없는데 얘가 접속이 안되 좀 당황스럽네요. 집에 가보면 안제 그랬냐는 듯 카메라는 멀쩡하게 잘 돌아갑니다. 이렇게 앱으로만 접속하는 카메라들을 안좋아하는 이유는 어느날 갑자기 지원을 끊어버리기 때문이죠. 요즘 자주 끊어지는게 뭔가 찝찝합니다.

### 3/5 — 오디오 싱크 및 FFMpeg 문제

*2021-12-07, version 1.3.2*

iPhone 11 Pro Max/iOS 15.1 사용 중입니다.
HNP-E60 구매해서 사용하는데 라이브 스트림을 보면 비디오와 오디오의 싱크가 맞지 않아서 오디오 딜레이가 발생합니다.
그리고 FFmpeg 설정이나 버전 문제인건지 몰라도 녹화한 영상이 사진 앱에서 공유를 할 때 오류가 발생하면서 공유되지 않습니다.
녹화 영상을 iMovie로 불러와서 다시 인코딩을 한 영상은 정상적으로 공유가 가능한 것으로 보면 녹화 인코딩에 문제가 있지 않을까 싶네요.
