### 2/5 — Long time user

*2025-04-06, version 4.3.1*

I have multiple cameras and have been using the spartan app for several years. It just keeps getting worse every year. Going to change the cameras out as they age out to another vendor

### 2/5 — Good texting camera—but the delay in transmission is unacceptable

*2024-11-12*

I have reached out to Spartan multiple times because of the delay in receiving HD photos and videos. This time 6 hours after request I still have not received the videos.

According to Spartan’s customer service, they need an “event” ie trigger to the camera to FULFILL the request. So for animal rescuers or someone trying to find their lost pet, this delay is potentially life-threatening. They need IMMEDIATE data. 

In the case of the above delay, because the camera was accessible to me I went outside and activated it by moving in front of it, and then went back into the house. That seemed to have triggered the download of the video.

However if this trail cam were in the wild and inaccessible to me I would’ve had to wait a long time for the video delivery or HD photo delivery until another event got it triggered again. 

How Spartan is programming its system to NOT SEND VIDEOS IMMEDIATELY UPON REQUEST and waiting for another “event” for delivery of services is one reason for the low review. It is certainly not worth the $15 a month I am paying for “service.”

**Developer response:** Hello,   
  
We do apologize for this inconvenience! This is not an app issue as it is a camera functionality. This is something the GoCams have always done. The GoLive cameras do send immediate requests due to always being conected to the server for the live stream. If you have any other questions about this please reach out to support@spartancamera.com. They can send you articles that were posted years ago about this to better explain. These articles and Support are always available for any questions before or after the purchase! Again we do apologize for any inconvenience.

### 3/5 — Camera Amazing App Not So Much

*2024-10-12, version 4.3.0*

That’s the review! The Camera has incredible quality day and night, but the app crashes and kicks me out all the time.

### 5/5 — The best out!

*2024-01-04, version 4.2.5*

Top of the line camera hands down clearest picture very well defined and no pixilation at all would suggest to anyone

### 5/5 — Best cameras in the game

*2024-01-04*

I’ve used about every trail camera you can buy and you won’t beat a Spartan and with the recent updates to the app makes viewing and customization to each camera to your liking a breeze. Get a Spartan and see what you’ve been missing!

### 5/5 — Best camera!

*2024-01-04, version 4.2.5*

Spartan cameras are the best cameras I’ve had. I have 5 and love every single one. The app is great and easy to operate. 10/10 recommend

### 5/5 — Spartan cameras

*2024-01-02, version 4.2.5*

I’ve owned all the brands and spartan is far above the rest! Customer service is top notch also

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2024-01-01*

I’ve tried numerous cell cameras in the past along with all their apps and Spartan is far and away better than any of them.  I was reluctant to try Spartan for years due to them being around a longer time and not being the shiny new fancy cell camera others claimed to be.  The inflated megapixels and claims of amazing trigger speeds and picture quality lured me to other brands for a while.  After having issues with multiple cameras from other brands, I finally decided to give the tried and true, lower megapixel rating, rock solid Spartan cameras a chance.  I was blown away.  The 8 megapixel photos on these cameras are clearer than any 30mp on any other camera.  The app is amazing and very easy to use.  You can share your cameras with others and download HD photos and videos with ease.  These are the best cameras I’ve ever used and will continue to be a customer for life.

### 5/5 — Great Cams

*2023-12-31, version 4.2.5*

I am now using 12 Spartan cams. Some are 4 years old and still going strong. The Spartan app makes it super easy to view,send,share and delete photos.

### 5/5 — Very Happy

*2023-12-31*

These Spartans are in a class of their own. This app makes it a cake walk. Extremely easy to set up on the camera itself or with the app. You can change your camera settings from your couch and as far as I can tell it is instant. Picture and video quality are unmatched. Just add it to your phone plan like a tablet and it’s $5 a month for unlimited pics, videos and HD pictures that you could frame. I have used several other camera app’s and this one is right there with the others.

### 5/5 — 5 years and counting

*2023-12-31*

Been using Spartan cameras and their app for 5 years now and highly recommend them to all my hunting buddies.  The Spartan team is always looking for ways to improve the app and its functionality.  Super impressed with this company and the quality of their cell cams.

### 5/5 — Spartan App

*2023-12-29*

My favorite feature within the app is the, Library tab. Once selected, it brings up all the new pictures I have from each of the cameras active on my cellular plan. The best part is, they load according to date and time, so if I have an animal traveling from one side of the property to the other, I get an idea of their travel route and routine. This allows me to target and pattern specific animals on our property.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2023-12-28*

I have been using Spartan Cameras for 6 years and have loved every minute of it. It is so nice to be able to see what is going on, as well as being able to make adjustments to the camera without having to disturb the area by walking out to it. I would be lost without my Spartan camera and the amazing app that makes it easy to operate.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Poor Support

*2026-05-05, version 4.3.1*

Timestamps on videos are off and customer service is piss poor.

### 1/5 — No good

*2026-05-04, version 4.3.1*

Cam will never Live stream for me. It works for my other family member .

### 1/5 — App sucks

*2025-12-02, version 4.3.1*

Needs major revamping! Constantly having issues and not receiving pics or videos.

### 1/5 — NO LONGER GREAT OPTION

*2024-12-23, version 4.3.0*

Technology and operational reliability has gone down drastically and costs remain high/higher than other options. Buy more economical cameras so when you have to replace doesn’t hurt as bad.

Spartan quality, reliability and customer service have rapidly declined over last 4-5 years on dozens of + cans

### 1/5 — I hope the camera is better than the app

*2024-10-10, version 4.3.0*

Just received my first go cam, I just got done setting it up and it was so much more difficult than any of my tacticams and spypoints. The app says to scan a QR code which is no existent. Then it says scan barcode, as soon as you click that it instantly takes a picture and you can’t just click delete you have to click out and click on the function again. It’s impossible to get the camera position and clarity for it to actually work properly. So now that everything’s registered i start setting up the camera itself and there is a value on the screen that I can only guess has to do with signal strength. I wish there was a tutorial on how to position the antenna for the best possible signal instead of sitting on the screen staring at the signal value. Idk so far I am not impressed

### 1/5 — Poor quality app

*2024-09-17, version 4.3.0*

I received an invitation to share a camera so that I could decide whether to buy. Logged into account after receiving invitation. App only displayed old pictures and old location, not current pictures or current location. Attempted to contact help, but only got artificial intelligence garbage responses. The app has no live button. I would not recommend this to another person. And I will not buy their system.

### 1/5 — Can’t get photos

*2024-03-12, version 4.2.5*

All of a sudden I can’t get photos on the app.  Stats are all good.  Have no idea what happened. 

Customer service is terrible too.

### 1/5 — App is terrible!

*2023-10-31, version 4.2.0*

Camera is amazing.. I’ve used this camera the last two years and it has always done well.. this year I repeatedly get “email missed” when trying to load pictures!

### 1/5 — Top of line camera, horrible app

*2023-10-23, version 4.1.2*

Cameras are great. App experience is opposite. Can not ever get the camera to go live in the app. Have to delete the app and re login all the time. Sometimes it works sometimes it does not. Frustrating

### 1/5 — Latest Update Unstable

*2023-09-30, version 4.1.2*

App used to work fine but crashes constantly since latest update.  Not even usable.  Lucky to keep app open 10 seconds before it crashes.  Please fix.

### 5/5 — Good cams

*2024-12-01, version 4.3.0*

Best pixels graphics EVER easily a 5star

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-11-16, version 4.3.0*

Great top of the line cameras! No complaints other than maybe expensive data plans. there’s a review on here that says subpar that review was made from a fake user. Tried to use my name

### 5/5 — Spartan

*2024-01-07, version 4.2.5*

I’ve been using Spartans for a while now and I’m hooked! Very reliable and dependable! 10/10 recommendation!

### 5/5 — Spartan Go Cam

*2024-01-07, version 4.2.5*

These cameras are top of the line. I’ve used all types of camera brands. Never have any issues with these cameras. Super cool that you can request videos off the touch of a button. Overall great camera for such a reasonably cheap price

### 5/5 — Best of the Best

*2024-01-05, version 4.2.5*

I run multiple of both the GoLive & GoCam cameras from Spartan. The quality and reliability of these cameras are top notch and they have yet to let me down. I rely heavily on them as scouting tools come hunting season. They also double as surveillance cameras for a home, shop, business or anywhere!

### 5/5 — Best Cameras on the Market!!!

*2024-01-05*

I have been running Spartan cell cams for the last 4.5 years and have been very happy with my experience. I have one GoCam with over 100,000 photos taken and it is still running strong. I have tried out several other cell cams and I will just say that Spartan has won me over for good!!!

### 5/5 — Spartan App

*2024-01-04, version 4.2.5*

Awesome Cameras and very easy to use the app best on the market

### 5/5 — Reliability

*2024-01-04*

If you’re looking for a cell cam that simply is the most reliable camera on the market, then Spartan is your camera! I have a gocam that is a 2018 model and it’s only been Out of the woods a total of less than 10 days….and it’s never missed a beat. If that’s not enough out of a camera, then you’re simply not able to be pleased! Simple as that! It’s hands down the most reliable and dependable camera out there!

### 5/5 — Amazing app and even better camera

*2024-01-04*

This app is really easy to navigate and figure out, the spartan cameras are the best cameras I’ve used and I have been hunting since I could walk. Where we hunt they are the only cameras that work, tactacams won’t work on either service us cell and Verizon, but Spartans will find a way everytime!

### 5/5 — Very Happy

*2024-01-04, version 4.2.5*

Love the cams, couldn’t be happier with the quality. Worth every penny!
