Lukas Eye(Dashcam wifi app) for Android
Every one complaining about the socket error, tell your phone to stay connected to the wifi even though there's no internet.
Keeps coming up with E1 socket error and will not load
Very patchy with samsung s8 not worth using.
FIX the WiFi error! E1 socket error!!!
Cannot stream video after the app update.
Because of the wifi connection failing constantly, it makes both the app and the camera useless. Yeah, try to email their product support you get NO response. Try to call their Korean support line. Another joke unless you speak Korean.
It works on my note 4, and on my husband's iPhone 6 plus. Wifi connection works but it only stay connected for a few minutes, then the wifi signal will be off automatically if you don't use it. You have to press the wifi button again to have wifi again. Video quality, the rear camera is better than the front, the front camera video is too dark and I already adjusted to the brightest setting and turned on the night vision. I have a professional installer did it for me so the wiring part is working fine. The manual is terrible, it doesn't give much of instruction. I had to figure out by myself, sitting in the car and have the engine running is also very inconvenient. I wish I can just edit and watch the video at home instead of having my car running. Will I buy it? Honestly no. It's working but not as good as I would have want it.
The app doesn't work with Android 7.0 at all. I have to use the iOS version. The WiFi feature of the camera is crap, half the time it just doesn't work. I don't even bother with the WiFi, I just take out the SD cards. My honest opinion, don't buy this system. Is bad and crashed all the time.
Disappointed... Bought the Lukas 2 channel, (front and back) HDR dash camera, based on reviews, because the rear camera records in HDR. The video quality looks good, however the software, firmware, and WiFi is unreliable, very frustrating. Cannot recommend!
*** Buyer beware *** App and dashcam do not work with Nexus 6P (7.1.2). Can't say about other android versions. I keep getting the error: E1_SOCKET_TIMEOUT_ERROR. Any suggestions? I'll update this review if I get any success or replies from builder.
Works ok but need a little more improvement with the software
Though the camera it connects to has a good image the ar790 the software and firmware is terrible. Can't view reorder footage over Wi-Fi, struggle to copy footage direct from card to computer too. The camera setting change randomly and have to use this app to resave camera settings. Not must Android either it's just as hit and miss on iOS or a mac or a PC computer. I would not recommend to anyone. Was it worth the cost of the camera.... not really. My old cheap camera quality was equal.
Doesn't work with Nexus 6p/Nougat. Therefore the app is useless to me. This problem existed with earlier Android versions and it appears that Lukas isn't too interested in fixing it. Time to look for a different dash camera.
It is not good enough to bring an expensive Qvia dashcam system to market without adequate testing of the associated smartphone app. This app is simply not reliable with my 2 android devices ( a priv using marshmallow 6.1) and a Samsung tablet. If there is(rarely) a connection achieved, It typically has sent over files which the software cannot open. As a quick response concept it is useless. My installer tells me I am not alone. The dashcam is using the latest firmware from 2/17. Strongly NOT to be recommended for Android. PS As I do not speak or read Korean, their website is also totally useless. I am told the apple version of the Qvia reader is satisfactory.
The android WiFi app is complete crap (Google Pixel). It won't play video and the WiFi connection it totally unstable and constantly throwing "E1_SOCKET_ERROR". Some of the device settings on the app never save properly and constantly reset to default (LK_7950WD_NORMAL). There also seems to be some hardware or firmware issues as well - rear camera stops working periodically and then starts working again after simply cycling the main power on/off. Hopefully an app and firmware update can fix these issues soon! Six months between most recent firmware updates - the last was Aug 2016 - so maybe an update coming soon???
Can't connect to the cam via wifi after running Android 7.0. even after disable 3g/4g. Got a message about socket error . Please fix the problem. Update: can connect to the cam but can't play the recorded video. I have to install "VLC Android" to play video.
It'll be great if including displaying map showing route along the video clip playing like the lukas viewer does on pc. (This feature is included in Blackvue.)
Iosocket error on Nexus 6p for over a year. Updated camera firmware with IOS app, now no there is no option to switch to English. Camera throws errors constantly while driving with a little Korean voice jabbering in the background.
I just installed the app, and I'm prompted with another language? Are you serious? How am I even supposed to configure it if I can't read what I'm doing?
Not Really a Fan
I have found much better dash cameras on e-market, buy this one was my mistake. Without my knowledge and behind my back, the company constantly changing software for settings.
App is WAY to buggy to be of any use .... Will not stay connected ....
I paid a lot of money for this crap. Wifi stopped working and without it its impossible to change settings. Firmware is not stable. Real waste of money.!!!!
Very poor Wi-Fi connection app does not work settings don't work this unit is useless needs a lot of improvement way too expensive for what you get
I'm sorry I paid so much for this thing, Tels time in korean even though English is selected. it has problems saving your settings (keeps reverting back to factory settings), no way to change WIFI settings such as ip/port etc.... the PC app is a horrable as well??? This has so much potential but needs sooo much improvement ! Like... the ability to add your own wifi adapter preferably one with an anttenna !, options to connect to a router/ap but it seems They gave up on this for more money ! Greed Sucks !
The problem is that it won't play video via WiFi, message reads Can't play video. I'm using Google Nexus 6. My iPad can play video for a second or so and then screen goes blank. PLEASE FIX. THIS CAMERA COST TOO MUCH.
Doesn't work with qvia z970 WD. Wifi is useless without the app.
Doesn't play videos via wifi
i love it
Can't play video. App crashes
1. It'll be great if including displaying map showing route along the video clip playing like the lukas viewer does on pc. (This feature is included in Blackvue.) 2. Updated the app several times but couldn't see any "what's new" in the description in Google play page like other apps do. Should include the info indeed. --- thanks for adding content of "what's new?", but it'd better be English
One). New Qvia R975 WD has been added. More features and more powerful and equipped with a recording function. 1) (Setting -...> Video) T790 Image quality has been simplified to three steps in the previous 6 steps (1 standard definition, high definition 2., 3. Best Quality) 2) (Setting -.> Add-ons) SD CARD capacity setting was used in some existing models, has been changed to be used in all models. 3). (Setting -> Basic Functions) Setting cable voltage loss function has been changed to be used in al
Great picture quality but can't send pics to another site. Can't view recording unless close to car. It can be hacked.
The unit itself could be great and can't beat recording quality, buts it is useless when the time constantly resets to another time zone which in the event of an accident is useless. Only way to set time via app is to use phone time sync, which I do and then it still reverts to some time zone 3 hours behind. Even when correct it will still speak the incorrect time. WiFi often drops, watching live feeds can be hit and miss, many spelling errors in app too-for the cost of the unit I expected a much better app
Can't play any videos on Nexus 5, not sure if it's the app or the phone but no reply from the company. Update - just tried on Nexus 6P and still same issue, please get your act together!
Can't connect to the cam after running Android 6.0. Please fix the problem
Doesn't work on Android 6 (Marshmallow), please update the application.
Won't work on Nexus 6. Can't play any video unless it has download.
Can't play any videos on Nexus 5, not sure if it's the app or the phone but no reply from the company.

Does not work with Android 7. E1 socket error. The iPad version works really well though and let's me configure the device and view footage easily. If the Android app worked as well as the iPad app I'd give it 5 stars
