### 1/5 — GB wic-100

*2023-03-03*

Only got the app to connect with the camera once. Spent the last hour trying to get it to work again. Shouldn't be this difficult.

### 2/5 — Worked fine until developer stop updating app

*2020-05-30, version 1.2*

It works but if you updated your phone or iPad you r out of luck.  Developer needs to update their app but doesn’t seem interested so now your stuck with tool that can’t be used.  Kicker is App Store says your device is supported and you need IOS 6 or higher but but nothing about anything over 10 won’t work.  It connects but no image. So kind of pointless now.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2019-10-17, version 1.2*

So you sell a device without available operating software? REALLY!  Such B.S.!

### 1/5 — Currently not working

*2019-10-10, version 1.2*

Update needed now.  Kinda bad don’t keep supporting a product that is still sold in stores

### 1/5 — Update please!!!!!

*2019-08-05, version 1.2*

If you would up date the app to work with IOS 11,12 and soon to be 13 that would be great, please consider this. The tool did work very well till I bought a new phone.

### 1/5 — Gardner Bender makes in China?

*2019-05-21, version 1.2*

Very bad and sad. We bought 5 of WIC-100 2 of them still in the box. I sent an email to the support and was told to send it back to the store,but it was a year ago. SOL

### 1/5 — Does not work with iOS 12

*2018-12-06, version 1.2*

No image shows.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-06-04, version 1.2*

When you sell something that has no support it’s trash

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect

*2018-05-01, version 1.2*

Does not work with new iOS versions. Connects to WiFi on the device but not seen or recognized by the app.

### 2/5 — Does not work with newest iOS

*2018-01-22, version 1.2*

I was able to install the app to my iOS 11.2.2 iPad, and it opens w/o crashing, but doesn’t display an image. On a hunch I grabbed an older iPad running iOS 9.3.5 and it works. One odd “feature” of the On/Off/LightIntensity thumbwheel seems to be that if you just get the thumbwheel Close to clicking Off, it will disconnect from WiFi and then one’s iGizmo will instantly re-connect to its normal home wifi signal. Awkward!

Needs an update for iOS 11, but upon contacting their Tech Support the impression they gave was that it would not be fixed; they advised me to return it!? I’ll keep it and use my old ipad.
