AVY Mobile One is our newly designed mobile application for all your video surveillance needs. It is compatible with our latest Diversity Series NVRs, Hybrid DVRs, and IP Cameras*, which can operate as standalone devices without a need for an NVR. We strive to make our user interface as intuitive as possible to ensure the best experience. Navigate our menu effortlessly and view your cameras live, or freely play back saved recordings. With our AI-capable recorders and cameras, you can now filter video events through features such as motion detection, facial recognition, people/vehicle detection and license plate reading. Reviewing push notifications is now streamlined as notifications are divided into three categories: Event, AI, and Abnormal. With these options, there is no need to review countless motion events when our software provides the analytics to detect relevant results. The built-in file list system helps users view or playback archived footage to save on their mobile devices. Our file manager comes with an integrated search engine to provide fast results based on dates and device names. It is easier than ever to quickly share your desired footage to social media platforms or a simple text message.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: GV at 4.3 against AVYCON ONE's 2.7. GV also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 61) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 5 months). AVYCON ONE's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
