### 1/5 — アプリのUIはゴミ

*2025-11-04, version 1.3.14*

Unidenへ問合せもしたのに、AIが書いたような回答で目立った改善案無し。
外出先ではほとんど繋がらず、何のために高い金を払ったのか謎。
このレビューの星数を見てから買うべきだった。時すでに遅し。
カメラ自体が悪いわけでは無いが、アプリはゴミ以下。無い方がマシでは。

### 1/5 — 改善する気ありますか？

*2025-08-18, version 1.3.14*

録画が見れない、重いなどのバグ多数。レビュー見て分かる通りだが、一向に改善しないこのアプリについて会社側は何も思わないのだろうか。会社や他の製品への信用に関わる。

### 1/5 — 見れない

*2025-08-04, version 1.3.14*

イベントが真っ暗で見れなくなった。感知した時の通知も来ない。
改善してほしい！

### 1/5 — 保存データが無い

*2025-06-02, version 1.3.14*

録画映像を見ようとしても保存データが無い。
いざというとき役に立たない。

### 1/5 — 真っ暗で再生されない

*2025-04-27, version 1.3.14*

他の方も書かれていますが、突然イベントが真っ暗で何も見えず再生されなくなりました。録画されても外出先から見れないのでは意味がありません。
早く改善してください。

### 2/5 — イベントが見れない

*2025-04-16, version 1.3.14*

真っ黒で再生されません。困ります。
改善をどうぞよろしくお願いします！！

### 3/5 — アップデート求

*2025-04-09, version 1.3.14*

携帯で操作中、カメラ2が映らない。
カメラ設置していない3を押してから2を押すと映る。
あと、録画されたものがここ数日再生できず、画面がずっと暗いままなのでアップデートしてください。

### 1/5 — つかえない

*2025-03-27, version 1.3.14*

全くみれない意味ない

### 1/5 — Playback rewind/fast forward button doesn’t work.

*2025-02-04*

I cannot rewind or fast forward recorded videos. The little round button doesn’t work. I cannot move it in either direction. 
I have to watch the entire video in order to find what caused the motion detection to go off. 
Very frustrating !!

### 1/5 — アップデート

*2024-08-23, version 1.3.14*

見れない時が多い、画面が落ちる
早く改善をお願い致します
