Pros and cons of Amcrest View Pro app for iPhone and iPad
Amcrest View Pro app good for
Very easy to setup, always connect to cameras, lots of functions.
Thumbs up
Not sure why this app is rated so low. Worked flawlessly from the moment I installed it.
Very easy to set-up, great features, I have a competitors brand (Mole) if I would of known how easy this was I would not if wasted my time with the other brand, will order at least 2 more, hope they continue with the excellent service, definitely recommend it.
I use this camera to keep an eye on my little dog during the day it works good in light or dark and is a fairly good picture .
Pretty clear picture and gets the job done. Its our nanny cam.
I have been using this app for almost 4 months now on my iPhone 6 I now have two 1080P cameras and one 720P camera the PTZ cameras have awesome picture quality everything has been working great I check on my property and pets several times a day and it connects every time and it send me push notifications when it detects motion. after using the app a couple times it got pretty easy to use it does have a couple of bugs but tech support said they are working on them they have had a couple of updates and added some new features which is good oh by the way they offer free (average) tech support which is a added bonus cant wait for the next update!! I think if Amcrest keeps working on it they could be one of the best and competitive app and home surveillance company out there
Some bad moments
Cameras work ok with app, but do not detect movement or anything else to recored with out u pressing the record button , these cameras r good for baby monitor thats about it ,
Recent update has at least made the app work about half the time. I am sorry but for an IP camera app, where the products entire purpose is to be viewed remotely, this is unacceptable. Horrible app.
The app was working fine to show camera over network. But then there was an update that caused to app to no longer work and it has yet to be resolved. The online web version works such that I can see the camera view but the whole point of getting this was to be able to access camera view from mobile app on phone.
This was one of the worst products Ive ever owned. Its all about you buying a subscription plus the product does not work very well. The set up manual is 180+ pages of very technical Internet network and protocol settings that you must configure. I contacted the technical support and the first thing and very strangely he wanted to remote control into my computers at home which I became very suspicious. This product does not need the use of a personal computer so my suspicions led me to believe that they also wanted to possibly hack into my computers and possibly to steal information. I wondered, is there more here than meets the eye! Could it be a new form of infiltration and hacking of personal information under the guise of a security company?
The Amcrest View cameras are decent quality, but their software to operate them is the worst Ive ever used. Its unreliable, unresponsive and occasionally fails to connect or even sense any motion.
The schedule of the motion detection is always cleared by some reasons after disable the motion detect function. Please Fix it
