So far easy set up. Good interface. Will update when in live use. Update: Doesn't work. I have my iPad set up as camera. Every time I go to view it. It automatically closes. Or is blank. Am I doing something wrong? Idts just a buggy app I supppose. Needs more development. I do not recommend. ### 4/5 — 👍🏻 *2017-08-07* So far so good ### 3/5 — Good Concept *2017-07-29* But there seems to be a lack of functionality. The live view just doesn't work. Will update later if it starts working or is my error. ### 3/5 — hard time connecting *2017-07-28, version 2.1* trying to connect to video camera can take about ten tries before connecting. app is a monthly subscription so you will end up paying ### 4/5 — So far so good. *2017-07-11* Pretty cool. Will need a little time to evaluate. ### 2/5 — Hard to use *2017-05-14* Needs work ### 4/5 — Seems to be working. *2017-05-06, version 2.0* Just beginning. Seems to be working. Time will tell. ### 4/5 — Great *2017-03-20, version 2.0* Amazing app ### 2/5 — Hmm *2017-03-19, version 2.0* I can't seem to figure out this app at all. ### 4/5 — Ads on both *2017-02-26, version 2.0* Set up was fairly easy up and running with video within a matter of minutes. I did the upgrade, also paid to get rid of the ads via my iphone I go on my iPad and the ads are still there... grrr come on I got to pay twice. ### 4/5 — It's ok *2017-02-21, version 2.0* It's ok ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Rip Off. Don’t Buy. *2017-11-08, version 2.1* It’s an absolute joke. Worst surveillance on App Store. If you want low resolution, incorrect screen ratios, bad low light operation and slow frame rate you have come to the right place. AtHome and many others do a way better job and lots are free. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2017-10-31* I would gladly pay for an app that worked. I have the pro version ### 1/5 — Not good *2017-10-09* I agree with KassieMe having same issue if you can’t make it work I expect a refund ### 1/5 — Not impressed yet *2017-10-05* Too early. To tell, I hope ### 1/5 — Haven't used *2017-09-07, version 2.1* Nzn ### 1/5 — Feed crashes instantly *2017-08-27* Paid for the app, and the second I try to "view" the feed it closes. Set it up to monitor my Boat during hurricane so pretty upset that I spent money on this app that simply doesn't work. Both iPads have strong signal so has nothing to do with environment just seems to be an unstable, glitchy app. Would love a refund! ### 1/5 — Oufg *2017-05-30, version 2.1* J essai de faire fonctionner depuis 1 heure ### 1/5 — Trash *2017-03-31, version 2.0* Does not work ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2017-01-17, version 2.0* What a waste of money, worked once and now only shows a green screen when trying to view camera. ### 1/5 — Worthless on wifi *2016-12-23, version 2.0* Worthless. $4 wasted. Locks phone, doesn't work. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good *2018-02-04, version 2.1* Good ### 5/5 — Works fine *2017-09-03* Good ### 5/5 — My first time *2017-08-28* Here we go. Let's see what he is hiding under that rock he wants to crawl back to lol This too much I'm doing it to watch my housekeeper ### 5/5 — Great *2017-08-25, version 2.1* Great idea ### 5/5 — Surveillance app *2017-07-10, version 2.1* Really good on 3G get it ! ### 5/5 — Neal *2017-07-05, version 2.1* Good ### 5/5 — Still testing it out *2017-04-22* Seems cool, though the recording pic is not that great, despite the camera being better. ### 5/5 — Spectacular App! *2017-03-11, version 2.0* Despite all the short positive reviews I decided to take the time to address why this app is great! Simplicity! With the push of a button it will monitor, detect intrusions, and keep records! Now the key element that puts this app in the first place for me is that I tested it for 48 hours straight and it has not crashed a single time since I used it (no ads version). To sum up, I would choose the simplicity and reliability of ZERO crashes of this app over any loaded app that is likely to crush. 5/5! ### 5/5 — Great *2017-02-25, version 2.0* Awesome app ### 5/5 — Peace of mind *2017-02-11, version 2.0* Just awesome! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
