### 3/5 — Ring doorbell camera

*2026-06-05, version 5.13.7*

Ring doorbell video and speed need a lots improvements.

### 4/5 — App works great

*2026-02-26, version 5.12.4*

I like the ability to control my system from my phone. It would be great if I could cast the video for my phone to my smart tv.

### 4/5 — Sir Suggestions

*2026-02-23, version 5.12.4*

It would be nice if Siri suggestions would have the option to open and close your garage doors.

### 2/5 — Cannot access

*2026-01-07, version 5.11.2*

For some reason, whenever I want to view the camera or when someone is at the door and I go to open the app, it just spins and spins and spins. It will not open. Kind of defeats the purpose. Please fix it!!!!!

### 2/5 — Not working since update

*2026-01-03, version 5.11.2*

On WiFi the app just loads and loads but never connects to my account after the latest update. I have to turn off WiFi to use it. Please fix!

### 4/5 — App freezes

*2025-12-18, version 5.11.2*

Can’t move emergency contacts. App freezes and can’t edit contacts.

### 4/5 — Freezes on Emergency Contacts

*2025-12-11*

Under “Monitoring Settings” > “Emergency Contacts” there are 2 issues. 

1) Our Emergency Contacts are displayed in the opposite order they belong. The order is correct with Vector Security. 

2) If I attempt to edit the contacts, the app freezes (every time). I have to bail out and log back in.

### 2/5 — Worked great until

*2025-12-09, version 5.11.2*

The app has always been great until about 5 days ago. It no longer loads.

### 2/5 — Won’t load

*2025-11-18, version 5.11.2*

For a month now I can’t get my account to load. That’s the portion for paying my bill… either they are trying to force auto pay or just don’t want to be paid.

### 2/5 — Nothing works except turning it on and off

*2025-11-18, version 5.11.2*

It all says constant support. I can’t change anything. Needed to update my CC in for, can’t do that.

### 3/5 — Solid - but lacks accessibility features

*2025-07-20*

The app has always performed well, yet basic network changes or other mods you want yo do require additional processes or contacting support.  This  should be simple enough -  i updated my home network long ago and can’t change things myself.    Get this added and it’ll give it 4/5 stars easy.  I like it’s stability and security features

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-07-01, version 5.9.6*

Don’t waste your money on this company. You will be stuck in a contract that you can’t get out of. The customer service is awful! I’d give it 0 stars if there was an option.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — app total fail

*2026-08-13, version 5.13.7*

Their server is down and there is no way to get a live person.  Not the 24-7 that they claim.  Totally useless bot on their app, and no one answers the phone either.

### 1/5 — Bad service

*2026-04-07, version 5.13.2*

Camera stop working with no reason and cannot trouble shoot.

### 1/5 — Front Door Camera

*2026-03-09, version 5.12.4*

Poor video quality, live video works intermittently.

### 1/5 — Horrible.

*2026-02-18, version 5.12.4*

Almost impossible to do anything because it spins forever before you get to the page you’re clicking. It’s not user friendly at all so you have to click around a lot and wait and wait in between each click. I’ve done all the updates and it’s still awful.

### 1/5 — Shotty at best!  Alarm goes off can barely hear it!  The installer was so impatient!

*2026-01-22, version 5.11.2*

I really don’t know how to use any part of it that would help if had a real alarm because you can barely hear it!  The worst customer service!  Asked for camera two weeks ago and never got it!  So, did something different on camera.  I wish I had not used Vector!!!!!!!!  Can I cancel my subscription and keep the equipment since I paid over $1,000 for nothing?!!!!!

### 1/5 — App will not work on my iPhone 16

*2025-12-07, version 5.11.2*

I’ve had this app on my iPhone for about a year. Yesterday the app stopped working while my phone is connected to my wifi network. It opens and works fine if I turn off wifi. Very frustrating. This problem makes the whole Vector security system less valuable to me.

Not user friendly. Poor customer experience.

### 1/5 — App rate

### 5/5 — Can’t control thermostat

*2025-01-27*

The last time I was able to use the app the control my thermostat was 2 weeks ago. I am unable to adjust the temperature or turn it off completely. Been using it for almost 4 years and never had an issue. Now it’s worthless!!!
