Amcrest IP Cam Viewer by OWLR for Android
I got this to replace the Amcrest Pro app which will no longer connect with the camera. This wasn't working either but after I adjusted my port forwarding it does. Even works away from my home off Wi-Fi. The only problem is that it's very slow to connect.
Seems like a great app so far. I had to manually enter the IP and port, but it working great. Better auto-discovery might be nice.
Couldn't get camera to work with Amcrest app or online, this app saved the day. Thank You
Works at home WiFi doesn't work outside of it which is pointless
Nice, stable and fast. Better than anything bundled from the OEM.
Simple and it works. No problems setting it up.
This app easily handles the controls of an Amcrest and a Trendnet camera. Simply amazing!
Really love this to watch the pups
Great, does what it supposed to do me easy
Way better than amcrest app
So far so good.
Just what I needed.
If you are looking for something simple to use, this is it. It works great add long you have a good Wi-Fi connection
Useless since I can't get it to work remotely with Amcrest ProHD. Works only at home on WiFi with limited functionality. No motion detection alerts or snapshots. False advertising - NOT for Amcrest. Uninstalled.
Way better than the official one. Thanks guys.
Very easy to use! MUUUUCH better than Amcrest's junk software!
Easy setup
Great app
Cannot get this to work. I suspect it's because I do not allow the unsecure http. I added my https port and rtsp or tcp port in combinations. No Bueno
It works like it said
Better than official app
Works great with my Amcrest cameras. Fast connection and reliable. Much better than Amcrest apps.
Had problems connecting multiple times. Uninstalled app. The pro is just as bad
Works great as advertised . Just make sure your camera is all setup and configured properly for remote viewing before attempting to use this app.
Got it up and running in a minute whereas the. Amcrest view pro still can't connect!
UPDATE: This app is specifically for Amcrest cameras but it stopped working for my IP3M camera although it still shows my Foscam cameras. I notified OWLR that the app was broken but it hasn't been fixed. So I downgraded my review from 5 stars to one star since it doesn't accomplish its stated purpose. ORIGINAL 5 STAR REVIEW: Works better than Amcrest's own app on both phone and tablet. Supports Foscam as well as Amcrest, making this the only app I need. Configures both LAN and remote access in one step.
Works far better than Amcrest's app
Won't find my camera...2k cam. IP3M-941B
Don't waste your time and money. Wish I would have checked app ratings prior to buying one of their cameras. Says connection successful then when I try live view it says connection failed. Forget calling tech help as they were worthless too.
Doesn't detect my Amcrest ip2m camera on the same network, EVEN THOUGH IT STATES IT WILL. Too bad I can't give you a 0.
So much easier to setup than Amcrest software, zoom in ability is closer than Amcrest, but do not offer much beside just for viewing.
Doesn't work. Initially it detected my Amcrest cameras but recommended I upgrade the firmware. Once I upgraded the firmware it no longer detected the cameras and I can't add them manually.
Finally an app that actually works. Thank you. You should have a donate option
But can't speak through mic. Update mic support added. Now 5 stars.
This is the best Amcrest viewer. This is how they all should be.
This one works - effortlessly!
Perfect
Extremely clean interface that gets directly to the configuration and setup important parts. No need to fiddle around too much. Also great functionality Auto detecting while in the network
Trying to get my Wansview with this app on manual mode in the app but cant find my wansview in auto mode

While this app does not have all the features of the Amcrest Pro app, the Android version has the essentials (camera pan/tilt & night vision toggle) and the interface is faster and cleaner. My wife has an iPhone and unfortunately the ios version does not offer the same level of integration (i.e. no camera controls). So of you are a mixed phone platform house, be aware that ios users may still need to use the Amcrest app if they wish to do anything more than view the camera stream.
