### 3/5 — Used to be great

*2018-01-31, version 3.1.1*

The app used to work well & had an impressive set of features. But - it hasn’t been updated in over two years an now, frequently crashes and disconnects on iOS11.
If I have to get a new camera app it’d likely be from another developer with a proven commitment to a long term support.

### 3/5 — Has been a great app.

*2017-09-25, version 3.1.1*

The app has been great, however, it crashes frequently in iOS11. Please update. It has been 2 years since an update has been release. Thanks.

### 4/5 — Great simple and affordable app

*2016-07-25, version 3.1.1*

Many more options than I anticipated. Setup was easy and quick.

### 1/5 — No Support For Most Hikvision Cams!

*2016-07-01, version 3.1.1*

Developer confirmed no support for most Hikvision cameras. This is a very popular brand worldwide and should be supported.

### 1/5 — Don't buy

*2016-06-16, version 3.1.1*

Used live cams pro and it had been closing randomly. Tried this app. Wow. I dint know anyone made junk like this. No auto scan feature to pick up ur cams. Silly. Save ur mine and look elsewhere.

### 1/5 — BAD SUPPORT AFTER PURCHASING

*2016-05-20*

After you purchase this app that is literally it, your cam will not be added as they state and after you email them 3 times they will replay once and ends there , you go on IGNORE

### 4/5 — Fast App

*2015-12-06, version 3.1.1*

Easy to configure

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2015-11-13, version 3.1.1*

I purchased this app along with the multi view feature. I'm using it with Sharx cameras. It constantly crashes...sometimes it takes up to 7 attempts to open and view a camera...and even then it sometimes crashes while viewing camera. Support is responsive by email...but support suggestion of delete app-reboot iPhone - reinstall didn't help for more than a day.  I went with app recommended by Sharx (Mobilinc Cam Viewer)... It was more expensive but it is very stable,no need for multi view add on, and it is more intuitive....so it's not my iPhone it's this app that has problems.

### 4/5 — Works fine with Foscam & even Polaroid

*2015-11-07, version 3.1.1*

I had trouble with this app initially, but now it's working great. Even with a Polaroid cam - ironically using Foscam "common" setting also. Really nice compared to using several apps to view several cameras at once. There's even a feature where it switches automatically from cam to cam on a rotation. And it works on my iPad2 even though it's called "iPhone only"

### 5/5 — Great App & Support

*2015-11-05, version 3.1.1*

A friend suggested that I try this application to accommodate the various camera models that I have acquired. I was impressed with the long list of supported camera models. Several months ago I easily configured all my existing cameras on my iPad and transferred to my iPhone via an email attached CID file. They all worked as expected. However, I recently purchased an inexpensive Apexis camera specifically for the GPIO capability that was not supported by the uCamPro application for this model. Late yesterday, I contacted uCamPro application support with a request to enable this feature. Early this morning, I received a reply with reload instructions.  They enabled this GPIO feature and it works as expected. This was the fastest report to fix duration that I have ever experienced from any software support team. I am still very impressed!

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2023-01-31, version 3.1.1*

I downloaded this piece of crap and paid for the app. After getting it on my phone it needed access to my photos…then it just went blank and closed. I continued trying to open it and there was no change. This app is a hack!

### 1/5 — Terrible Customer Support

*2021-09-23, version 3.1.1*

I had issues with configuring several of my cameras (which work fine in other apps). I contacted customer support several times and got no reply. Save your money. Try Ipcam Soft instead.

### 1/5 — USED to be a great app.

*2018-07-10, version 3.1.1*

This app worked really well with my d-link cameras until the last update!!!
You need to fix it!
Also there is no support for my HD exterior cameras (IPCCam and SV3C cams). These cams are great and very reasonably priced. Too bad this app doesn’t work with them. At their price and what they have to offer, I am sure a lot of people are buying them.
Buyer beware!!! Make sure you have cams that are on there list. Also wait till they fix the last update. Too slow to see cams outside of your own network and the app CRASHES!

### 1/5 — Best IP cam app—until iOS 11, that is …

*2018-05-10, version 3.1.1*

This was the best IP/web cam app available for iOS – supported many cameras, had polished interface – but now fails to open under iOS 11. Unless and until it is updated to work with iOS 11, DO NOT BUY THIS APP!

### 1/5 — Good a few years ago

*2018-04-13, version 3.1.1*

App crashes on startup and no updates for 2 years. At this point it is worthless

### 1/5 — App needs updating

*2018-02-06, version 3.1.1*

This app worked great with my Foscam cameras.  But when I updated my cameras to amcrest it no longer worked.  The brand and camera model was listed in the app camera list. It didn't work after I set it up.  Email the developer all he said was to reload the list, which I already did.  Was then told I was SOL.  Avoid this app if you get new cameras.  This app hasn't been updated in two years.  I also occasionally get ads to buy their other apps when I use this app. If you want me to buy your other apps update this one.

### 1/5 — Camera app

*2017-11-21, version 3.1.1*

Use to work real nice. Does not work with iOS11.1.2  It shuts down immediately. App needs to be upgraded.

### 1/5 — Gail in iOS 11

*2017-09-29, version 3.1.1*

Not working in iOS 11

### 1/5 — Does it work?

*2016-11-15*

I've now sat £4 down and still unable to get this app to connect to my Swann device!!

### 1/5 — Poor customer support

*2016-10-07, version 3.1.1*

Customer support really mean.
My camera updated and didn't work with app, I sent my camera information to them let them check and update app, but they are really mean, and they didn't do any thing for me.
Really bad peoples .
I don't recommend this app, because when your cameras updated , they don't really help update app for you.

### 5/5 — Thank you for making this app

*2023-09-21*

I’m not sure if this app is still being updated, but it has allowed my dad who has a love for cameras to be able to utilize all of his old school cameras on the modern iphone. Thank you to the person(s) who created this application. Please do not discontinue it!

### 5/5 — Still think it’s the best after 6 years

*2021-12-23*

This is a great app for ip camera. I have used it for six years and it continues to operate without fail. Updates are quick and easy.

### 5/5 — Works good

*2021-06-09, version 3.1.1*

To view camera externally, you need to add the external IP address and Port number, if you are having problems with this function.
To find your external IP address go to your computer and use your external App to locate your camera on your local network.
In the setup menu locate the system IP settings and locate the external IP and port info.
Then open this App and enter the info.
You should see local access and remote access IP address and Port number.

### 5/5 — AWESOME!

*2017-02-18, version 3.1.1*

I tried several IP apps and this one by far is superior over the rest!  I have six cameras hooked to it.

### 5/5 — Consistently works well!

*2016-12-18, version 3.1.1*

Always loads right up, with all cameras. Email alerts work well. Would like clearer instruction on setting up monitoring when away from home, else no complaints.

### 5/5 — Actually WORKS !

*2016-02-23, version 3.1.1*

What more can you ask for. App does what it says and is easy and straight forward setting up. Thank you

### 5/5 — Excellent IP camera software!!

*2016-02-05, version 3.1.1*

I bought this application to monitor my Foscam camera's. Holy cow, this app rocks. My cameras have audio and microphone and they both work perfect with this app. 

The key to your success with this app is to fool around with the different features.

I haven't punched through my firewall so it's accessible from outside of my internal network and it's amazing with its response times and the night vision is superlative.

The only thing that frustrated me, was the in app additional $.99 purchase for multiview. It seemed to be underhanded; but it does mention it in the description. So in all fairness I could have wasted the $4.99 I spent plus the $.99 if everything didn't work as well as it does.

Overall I'm very pleased and from what I understand their customer support is what you would expect.

### 5/5 — Worth Every Penny!

*2016-01-28, version 3.1.1*

This app continues to exceed my expectations. Excellent interface, very fast and packed with options and camera models. Multi-View option is a must!  I have recommended this app to many!  Best camera app on the App Store.

### 5/5 — Awesome camera

*2015-11-28, version 3.1.1*

Never let me down.

### 5/5 — Simple and works!

*2015-11-26, version 3.1.1*

Took me hours to coordinate mydlink and my router to talk nicely together. This app took minutes. 

What more can you ask for in an app: simple, works, and it's cheap.
