Description
This app is a CLIENT for the Blue Iris Windows PC software. In order to make use of this app, you must have Blue Iris version 5 installed and running on a Windows PC or VM. Instructions for connecting this app to the PC software are found in the Remote Access chapter of its Help file.
This app provides a single point of contact to your home camera network. There is no need to insecurely open individual cameras to the Internet. This app connects using a secure and session-based protocol--no passwords are transmitted in plain text.

Key features include:

- Control the shield icon, schedule and profile selection

Keeps disconnecting from webserver
Been using it for 2 days now. Get it set up and works fine, in about an hour or so, it cant connect. Wifi and cellular service is strong. Have to jump thru the hoops of adding a new server. It then works again for an hour or so then disconnects again. Right now…. Not worth the $9.99
Flawless!
This app, in conjunction with Blue Iris NVR software, makes for a flawless surveillance system! I’ve experimented with numerous surveillance systems and have found better—or for that matter—anything even close! And btw, the Android version of this app is equally robust, stable and, again, flawless.
Push notifications require subscription
Push notifications only work if you have purchased the desktop app AND have an extended support subscription.
The Ideal Match for Blue Iris Enthusiasts!
Blue Iris has been an absolute game-changer in surveillance! Needless to say this app’s design makes monitoring my property simple, yet offering crystal clear live feeds directly to my phone and iPad. The customization options in this app are user-friendly, allowing me to finangle the settings exactly how I want. Definitely deserves a five-star rating!
Make sure you understand what you’re doing
This app’s output is only as good as the input. It works wonderfully for me.
Not worth the price
App doesn’t follow general iOS design guidelines, often doesn’t select correct clip and it costs too much money for what my toddler can do better with.
Using for 1 year plus, Excellent!
I have a small sever running Ryzen 5700G, 2tb M2, 16gb RAM…etc for Blue Iris. I also have about 6 cameras connected in different fashion (POE, WiFI, USB). No issues at all from this application. It is lightweight, not tons of features which is fine, it just works. I send “critical” updates to my phone when a person is detected in the AI of the server, that works fine. Solid app.
Very reliable
This app is so reliable and consistent. My only thing I wish it had was picture-in-picture support. It has background audio but not video when you leave the app.
Something broke in the last update
The app shows several cameras in red like there are dead, however once you click on them they work, very annoying…
