Once you understand how to get the camera connected to your wifi (manually turn on wifi on phone, connect to to the camera then open the app and set up its connection to internet wifi / router directly) it forces you to allow unrestricted access to both your wifi / router, and your mobile data / location (exact) / when first downloaded you MUST give it access, not just to add pictures, you MUST give access to ALL your photos and videos, the whole shabang.
1) there is no need for them to have access to my entire life, my videos, be able to take unrestricted videos and pictures. The only things they should need is: Me paying 70$ for the camera, and allowed to connect to wifi (IF i choose to allow that rather than use my encrypted vpn..) and to be able to ADD photos or videos to my camera roll, that myself and only myself physically set up or engage myself, to do so.
DO NOT BUY. HUGE DATA/PRIVACY BREECHES
CHEAP CAMERA, GARAGE APP, AND BULLSHI#
I can’t read your website...
I can’t read your website even with the English turned on. I can’t get passed the wifi connect keeps saying incorrect password. And I’m using the default password in this booklet that came with this mini camera. Having to connect to it like this makes it really useless. And no way to get any help. So I’m writing this review and a single star, and hope you get in touch with me. I guess I’ll see if I hear back from you any time soon. 11/02/2020 at 8:14pm. Can also be gotten ahold of at Reddit r/DumpZone4allBadApps hope you get ahold of me soon, then these can be changed. 11/02/2020 at 8:19pm.
Nice camera but...
It’s a nice little camera, very easy to connect to the wi-fi. It streams live so I’d love to give it a 5 stars (I guess I gave it 5 on Amazon or eBay) but there’s a big problem with recording and taking pictures of the live (I do have the card inserted). Each time I’m away, or even at home, and I’m trying to record any video it tells me “do not get the appropriate permissions, please open and try again”. Well, I tried million times to reset it and it still doesn’t work. IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED or I’ll go back and leave a 1 star.
Update, im leaving one star because they are deaf to that what people/costumers are telling them.
Are you willing to fix the app???
The cameras are not connecting at all to the internet!!
Session closes when phone goes to sleep
Echoing what many have already said. The app essentially ends when phone goes to sleep. so if you are monitoring, you have to continuously tap your screen so your phone doesn’t go to sleep. Not sure why they are not making this update. Give the users the ability to make this change in setting.
Camera
Worked good for a while then one day it lost connection and can’t get it to work
Better sound please
The sound threshold is so low it’s impossible to hear what’s going on. Not the real point of a hidden camera. Other than that, it does pretty ok.
Cannot connect to the camera when using cellular data
Cannot connect to the camera outside my WiFi range when trying to use cellular network even in IP connection mode.
Don’t bother
Horrible battery life.
Piece of Crap
If I could give this a negative star I would. The ability of this device showing up on the WiFi listing is practically nil, at best. I just put this in the trash and have deleted the app from my phone. If I ever hear about this crap ever again it will be too soon.
