## What is WorldWatchr?

Now you can stay in touch with your home, famous places of the world, the current traffic conditions and much more by watching your favorite web cams on your iPhone.

The WorldWatchr application makes it easy to monitor web images which are continuously updated (like web camera pictures). It can cycle through all your cameras and updates the images periodically.

The images don't have to be produced by webcams. You can monitor any image which is updated over time like weather radars, traffic maps and so on.

The webcams and settings are either stored locally on the iPhone or on our server so that you can manage them from your desktop browser on www.worldwatchr.com.

This way you can turn your iPhone into a digital photo frame for the webcams of the world.

## Key features

### 1/5 — Doesn't synch with website

*2015-05-12*

This app does not synch saved webcams with the website as promised. And trying to logout and log back in doesn't work either. This app is not worth the money. Don't waste you time.

### 1/5 — Arnaque ?

*2011-07-15*

Gardez votre argent ! bidon ! l'assistance ne répond même pas lors de l'envoi d'un mail !

### 1/5 — Not working as advertised!

*2011-01-29*

So many problems in this app its hard to begin to describe the bugs.  Edit is not Edit - it is Delete. You can't Edit the Names on the iPhone locally. Maybe it works on the Google Account Login. However, if don't have a Google Account - too bad - can't get out of those screens - no way to Cancel - must restart the iPhone. Can't reorder the Cams on the iPhone. And DON'T Select a Cam - once in full screen - there is no way back - reset required!  His Mac Widget is buggy too!  No editing - no updates - refresh button does not work in the combined mode. So sad - very needed app. His Thesaurus app is great. Bottom Line - Don't buy - want my money back - does not work as advertised.

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2011-01-16*

I was able to enter all of the local traffic cameras that cover my daily commute. Love the slideshow feature, I can quickly flip through all of my stored traffic cams. I tried a number of other webcam apps and most of them didn't have the ability to enter your own traffic cams URLs.

### 1/5 — Very poor support....can't get it to work

*2010-09-13*

Poor

### 1/5 — Schlimmer geht's nicht!

*2009-12-07, version 0*

Muss meinem Vorredner leider Recht geben. Habe dieselbe Erfahrung gemacht. APP ist völlig unbrauchbar.

### 4/5 — Nice

*2009-06-05, version 0*

### 1/5 — World watchr

*2009-03-30, version 0*

Der reinste Nepp!

Das Accu ist gleich leer, doch von einem Webcam -Empfang weit gefehlt!
Habe Maßenweise URL's eingetippt, doch nicht ein einziges Mal habe ich ein Erfolgserlebnis gehabt!
