Last 2 updates are troublesome

Can’t make changes to camera settings. Cameras may or may not record. Very distressing. I invested a lot of money in this product and support does not return email requests for assistance.

Wast of money!

I have three cameras and the all not losing at all it is been 4 month, I can’t even reach out for this Company، I send to many emails they don’t answer to fix my issue! Wast of money!

Service has gone downhill

I bought 18 cams for 3 properties and have been a customer for 3 years. The online access is the only way I can access my cameras and it’s being phased out. The app is junk. I log in and get a confirmation email notification my device is connected, but the app gets stuck on the login page. It won’t work on an iPhone or Samsung Galaxy.

Does exactly what I need

I’ve been using this service for 7 years and was shocked to see the poor feedback. My sister lives in same town and has a disability. Instead of dropping in twice a day I can use this system to check in. With the still picture views I can quickly tell she is ok without feeling like a voyeur. I have found this simple to set up and use and highly recommend it.

Other older model used to work well

I had one of the earlier versions of this camera + app + service and worked very well. With the new app, I can get *maybe* one single frame of video, but more likely the app just crashes. Pretty useless now.

FAQ

What does the Y-cam app do?

The Y-cam app provides a complete security solution by integrating burglar alarm and camera technology. It allows you to protect your property and family by receiving instant alerts when an alarm triggers and viewing live or recorded HD video from your cameras, day or night, from anywhere via your smartphone.

What are the key features of the Y-cam system?

Key features include full remote access to alarms and cameras via the app, simple setup, Triple Layer™ technology, 8-hour battery backup for the alarm, expandable systems, and SMS/phone call alerts. Cameras offer free 7-day cloud video storage, the ability to see and hear live and playback HD video, indoor/outdoor protection, and night vision.

Does Y-cam require monthly fees or contracts?

No, Y-cam's Triple Layer™ technology offers professional-standard security without monthly fees or contracts for the core alarm and camera functionality. However, certain advanced features like 24/7 line monitoring and extended cloud storage require the optional Y-cam Plus service.

Can I use the alarm and cameras separately?

Yes, while the Protect alarm and cameras are advised to be used together for complete security, they can both be used separately if needed. This offers flexibility in how you choose to secure your property.

What are the compatibility requirements for the Y-cam app?

The description does not explicitly state compatibility requirements for the Y-cam app, such as supported operating systems (iOS/Android) or minimum device specifications. Users should typically check the app store listing for their specific device.
