### 5/5 — Better than every other option

*2026-05-16, version 2.17.0*

I have used several apps over the years and Transcendent is by far the best solution I’ve ever seen.  There are a ton of features!  Basic functionality is intuitive. Advanced features may take a while to learn just because there’s so much available.   

On top of what you would expect, mainly viewing and recording video, you also have the ability to control a significant portion of the NVR settings through this app.  There are some things that still have to be done through the NVR itself, but I think that’s how it should be as well.  

There have been times when the app needed updates, but calling Vitek Tech Support they have always had an answer, or work around, or have gotten back to me in short order with Solutions   they’re small enough company that you can almost always get a hold of somebody quickly

### 1/5 — Insultingly terrible app

*2026-02-20, version 2.16.6*

I've probably reviewed this app three times and every time it somehow manages to be worse than the last time. The issue these days? It refuses to accept my (correct) login information.

Vitek is a scam company that exists exclusively by bribing local installers to use their garbage over better options.

### 3/5 — App crashing

*2026-01-09, version 2.16.6*

This app actually works really well and has for over a year for me. As of recently, it continues to crash. I’m having to open it up for five times every time I go to use it due to it crashing. It is an amazing quality app, I just wish it was running better.

### 2/5 — Frustrating experience with connectivity and outdated interface

*2025-06-28, version 2.15.2*

The app frequently loses its configuration settings without warning, requiring us to reconnect and reconfigure from scratch. This often means scanning the QR code from the receiver again — which is impossible when you’re away from home, effectively locking you out of the system until you return. It’s incredibly frustrating, especially when traveling.

Additionally, the app’s user interface feels outdated and clunky, more like something from 2019. In today’s tech landscape, apps should see noticeable improvements in usability and reliability every 12–18 months — if not sooner. Unfortunately, this one seems stuck in the past

### 1/5 — Barely works

*2025-03-25, version 2.15.2*

This app/cameras barely work. Half the time i can’t even load my cameras, and It logs you out. If i can rate this a half star i would.

### 1/5 — User Interface and connection

*2025-03-20, version 2.15.2*

User interface and connection are terrible the company won’t spend money on developers to update it appropriately, maintain good connectivity and easy to use user interface. Poor dev tech. Don’t use them or buy their product. I dare them to respond.

### 1/5 — The worst camera system you will buy

*2025-02-19*

An NVR that breaks down if you look at it weird, App that will just fail to connect unless you close it first, and abhorrent software on the NVR. 

Every single employee to work for this company should be embarrassed to work for Vitek.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2024-08-13, version 2.13.5*

This app used to work just fine to monitor my security cameras. Now…it goes offline at any random moment and won’t come back. I have had the security company come out a few times and it works for a couple of weeks. I am so very frustrated with it!

### 1/5 — Blurry footage

*2023-09-30, version 2.12.2*

Ever since the update all my footage is blurry. It’s clear footage until there’s any kind of movement then it says it’s going to lower resolution. But then you can’t see anything. So what’s the point of having a camera. Been like this for months with no fix. Don’t recommend them.

### 1/5 — Terrible App, worse update

*2023-09-30*

This app has always been one of the worst things I've used. Then they updated it. Now I have to manually close out the app because if I multitask it, the video won't play. 

But what can I do? You slimeballs got my money and you have zero incentive to improve because what are we gonna do? Invest in another camera system?
