### 4/5 — Camera issue

*2017-11-25, version 2.7*

Why can’t we access the cameras without WiFi? Isn’t it supposed to work with data too? We should have access to the cameras from anywhere and anytime, when you travel you don’t have access to WiFi all the time!

### 4/5 — Camera won’t work with phone data

*2017-11-25, version 2.7*

Please find the issue and fix, I used the phone data to open the cameras and it used to work just fine...
After the new software update from apple 11.1.2
It only work if I am connected to WiFi!!!!
Please look up, and fix..
Thank you

### 3/5 — Won’t connect.

*2017-09-26, version 2.7*

I can’t get this to connect for anything. It’s and iPhone 6 s plus with the latest update version of apple and it will not connect at all. Just opened the box. I guess I’ve got to send it back.

### 4/5 — Uniden appcam 21

*2017-04-26*

For a 30$ camera and free remote view app (that works fine for me) - I can't complain - fairly clear, Color is good - easy to use. Unlike other setups this took me less than 10 mins to to be setup,view, alert, record. Also mic is pretty clear. Will be sticking one of these in every room with a window or door

### 5/5 — Great app

If you guys can  implement an option for  overwriting on the sd card that would be great.
