Surveillance Pro

The software is unstable and full of bugs.

App crashes as soon as it is connected to Zoneminder.

1 cam limit

This camera took around 3 months to arrive & when it did arrive, it never worked….. not once ….. huge ripoff

App doesn’t work if there’s any username/password settings for my AXIS cameras. Only sees the cameras that are left wide open with anonymous access - not cool. Requesting a full refund as soon as I can. Disappointed. I really had high hopes.

At least it doesn’t work with the IP cams that I have. I am able to see my cameras by entering in the IP addresses directly into the web browser URL and through the camera package on my Synology NAS. But, can’t get it to work on this app no matter what I try. Contacted developer and they never responded.

I guess it’s impossible to add a rtsp stream?

I love this app...I hate this app. Note: I use this exclusively with zoneminder and have no idea how it works otherwise. Love: It is FASSSSST. I have no idea what the developer has done right compared to zmNinja or other apps, but it loads and switches between monitors about 5-10x faster. I also love that I can setup several "groups" on my main screen that are only a single camera and have those prominent and always on top. Hate: So many frustrations. When you try and enter the URL for zoneminder it is continually trying to complete and submit the entry...and it auto populates "http://" god help you if you use a non-standard port and SSL...an I hope you like entering the URL over and over and over and over again because if you need to edit something, or move a group, or delete a single camera in a group, or fix pretty much any small mistake: FORGET IT. You're starting over. Oh and god help you if you have complex passwords and are trying to enter them using a mobile device...it will submit if you pause so much as a millisecond, and then clear your entry when it is not correct, with the added bonus of possibly locking your account. An absolutely idiotic and enraging "feature". Not that you would want to use SSL...or obfuscated ports...or secure passwords on your SECURITY CAMERA SETUP. ಠ_ಠ Instead of fixing the small things and making sure the foundation is solid, the developer is now moving on to a new version with about a million features I don't need or use. Would like to give the app 5 stars again, but it is not up to the level of craftsmanship I expect from a German company. Hopefully the usability issues will be addressed. Also, in case you run into the same problem with the "restore purchases" button that I did (dosen't work!) simply "buy" it again. Apple will detect your prior purchase and not bill you.

I only need a few (2-3) cameras in this app, so it’s not worth paying $8 for me, it would be better if there was an option to unlock 5 cameras (for example) for around $3, with an option to pay the difference for the unlimited upgrade later. Also it would be nice if there were more helpful debug info, when I initially set the camera up with the wrong port, it was unclear if the stream was simply loading, or had no connection at all.
