### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-06-30, version 3.1.0*

Never again. They need to get rid of all these products that come from here. Wi-fi is a headache after you manage to get bluetooth working. Also 8 batteries to put in as well. Horrible, product! Close the borders!

### 1/5 — Instruction and AP are awful

*2023-04-23, version 3.1.0*

Purchased this device to check on wildlife in the back yard.  Never got it to work and after 1 week of frustration, finally gave the junk away.  
Out $90.00, but hope to save you some $

### 1/5 — Won’t Stay Connected to Wifi

*2023-03-17, version 3.1.0*

When it connects, it works fine. But it drops connection as soon as I move inside (only 30 feet from camera), and is very difficult to reconnect, even when standing next to camera.

### 1/5 — Poor quality

*2022-11-05, version 3.1.0*

This camera is poor quality.  The picture looses focus at 30 feet. Then kicks off of WiFi.  Will not work on Bluetooth.  This could never be used for “Trail Camera”. You could probably use it at your front door that’s about it.

### 1/5 — WiFi830 camera

*2022-09-12, version 3.1.0*

Camera is  garbage with or without app.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2022-07-25, version 3.1.0*

Can someone help??   Can not get app to register that the phone and camera are connected to WI-FI.   camera is saying it is connected to Wi-Fi, iPhone is saying is connected to camera, but the app is saying it is not connected. So I cannot use. There are no instructions on how to use the camera manually. I have tried to get it to take pictures but it is not doing so. Has someone solve this problem?

### 1/5 — Lost “Precious” time

*2022-06-09, version 3.1.0*

This app is horrible! I Purchased a cheap Wi-Fi camera and have wasted several hours of my life trying to figure out this works. I wouldn’t recommend it to my worst enemy

### 1/5 — Does not connect

*2022-06-08, version 3.1.0*

Got 2 cameras for Father’s Day, tried setting them up, won’t discover Bluetooth. When it finally finds the camera name on the wifi, it wont connect. Restarted multiple phones, reinstalled app multiple times, several people tried..won’t connect. Very disappointed

### 1/5 — P.O.d

*2022-05-05, version 3.1.0*

I wish I would have read ALL the reviews. Don’t spend your money on this piece of junk

### 1/5 — Will not connect

*2022-03-29, version 3.1.0*

The app just keeps telling me to connect to the cameras WiFi access point. After I connect, it tells me the same thing again. The app is complete garbage.

### 1/5 — Two Reviewers Could Connect. The Majority R Screwed

*2022-02-04, version 3.0.9*

Ok so two people got the app to work? So what? The majority cannot. That should tell any potential user that the reviews may have been manipulated by this crummy company. Tech “support” is non existent. Piece of crap.

### 1/5 — Yep, it’s broken

*2022-02-01, version 3.0.9*

Just like all these reviews say, the app no worky. What a huge let down.

### 1/5 — Could not connect Wi-Fi

*2022-01-20, version 3.0.9*

Followed the poor instructions best I could over and over again. Got the Bluetooth connected but when I tried to connect to the Wi-Fi  … first it said Wi-Fi  connected then then next screen said in RED letters the Wi-Fi was off.  This is the most  hyped up trail camera but it a piece of JUNK!!!
The nerd that wrote the instructions was high on something.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2021-12-27, version 3.0.8*

Won’t stay connected No no No help anywhere.  Time for a return.  Such a waste of time with no support.

### 1/5 — Poor instructions and not intuitive.

*2021-12-25, version 3.0.8*

Once again, purchased a product with crappy instructions. You are purchasing their product, why do they force you to spend hours trying to figure out how it works. Once you figure it out, it isn’t that hard. But the software is not intuitive and the Chinese developers should hire English speaking writers to explain how it works. No doubt the people who develop these apps spend so many hours on the product that they know it backwards and forwards. It is difficult for first time users.  Plan on being angry until you figure it out.

### 1/5 — App is bugged

*2026-08-03, version 3.1.1*

The app worked fine last year. Tried connecting this year and it connects but won’t download videos to the phone. Please fix

### 1/5 — Not good instructions

*2026-05-01, version 3.1.1*

I thought the camera wasn’t too bad, but the instructions were dire.  Not sure why it has to have a different WiFi to everything else (may not have it set up correctly) but it works.  Bit if a faff around so fiddly … I would not recommend it to friends to be fair or anyone else for that matter, not everyone is an Einstein in setting cameras up, so you are only as good as your weakest link, which in this case is not at all.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-10-26, version 3.1.1*

Camera seems good and managed to connect to both Bluetooth and WiFi but only within 3 meters of camera location. Disappointing, don’t buy!!!

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2025-09-27, version 3.1.1*

Camera can connect via  Bluetooth but not WiFi. There are no proper instructions. Avoid.

### 1/5 — Won’t connect!

*2025-01-04, version 3.1.1*

I see the other reviews saying it’s easy and I’m sure if it works like it should it is easy. However, the camera will not connect to wifi or work outside of test mode. Absolutely terrible app and product. DO NOT PURCHASE!

### 1/5 — Wifi issues in app

*2024-11-26*

Phone connects to camera but app  not recognizing connection

### 1/5 — App review

*2024-10-08, version 3.1.1*

Absolutely pathetic - won’t waste any more time explaining just how bad it is 🥵

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2024-05-16, version 3.1.1*

This is a worthless app don’t waste your money.

### 1/5 — Do not get their junk

*2024-02-25, version 3.1.1*

I’ve been trying to set up this camera for 2 months. Company won’t take it back.  App and camera just won’t work.

### 1/5 — Instructions are either not clear or just wrong

*2023-12-08, version 3.1.1*

Purchased two of these in a package deal and neither one will connect

### 5/5 — Works fine

*2025-07-07, version 3.1.1*

People that are having trouble connecting note that the WiFi does not work with your home network. It’s not a substitute for a security cam. The camera itself has its own WiFi network. You have to be fairly close to connect. Read the instructions and watch some YouTube videos. It’s not intuitive but it’s not that hard. Trail cams are meant to be left in a remote location that you can later visit to retrieve the videos. The only gripe I have is that it doesn’t automatically save your photos and videos to a folder on your iPad. After much searching you need to go to local videos in the app (after downloading them from the camera) and there is a share button there. I’ve only had my cams about 10 days and already captured some nice videos of deer and fox.

### 5/5 — Works well with WiFi900Pro trail camera

*2022-04-03, version 3.1.0*

Self explanatory usage..

### 5/5 — Too Easy

*2021-12-30, version 3.0.9*

I have to agree with the MinnesotaDeerSlayer’s Review. The other reviewers clearly did not read the instructions in a thorough way. Infact there is TWO options on connecting and I recommend the Wifi way.

Easiest Set-up ever. A child could do it as long as they could read. I will say though, the developer will need to translate some tech words into a civilian’s lingo. I can see that causing confusion but other then that, 5 out of 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2021-12-18, version 3.0.8*

Must be some real idiots doing reviews. Connecting was easy.  30 sec.  Haven’t tested other features. I will do another review later.

### 4/5 — Save photos

*2022-09-29*

How can I save photos and videos to files
