RV-Eye for Android
Piece of junk, password worked twice. Transmitter won't reset. Called the help line, no help there either. If i could give it a zero i would have
I too cannot connect my Android phone to it. The app worked great last year and now nothing. The Wi-Fi won't reset. I hope they work out the issue because it was an awesome feature when it worked and it was extra cost on my new camper.
Best thing in RV backups and close bye security, only thing missing is access to remotely viewing when your away from the RV i.e. 4G 3G or internet-based access. Update 7-28-2017 Worked last year this year won't connect to android devices, Customer service says there's problems with Transmitters, will replace ASAP still waiting 3 months of complaining before they told me. Also notified Forest River / Coachman of problem and lack of fix. a $799. option.
The app only works on Apple IOS devices. I have tried on numerous modern Android devices and can never get it connect and display video. This is very misleading. It is advertised as supportin both IOS and Android. I see other reviews talking about the wifi not working after a few uses and the wifi transceiver not resetting. This is exactly what has been happening to me. The only way to reboot the transceiver is to kill power to it by their disconnecting RV battery cables or pulling the fuse powering the device in the RV breaker/fuse panel. This too is extremely frustrating and needs to be addressed. I have asked the mfg how they plan to provide software/firmware updates to the cameras and the transceiver since there is no way to connect it to the Internet and they did not answer. Having the RV-Eye cameras installed on the new RV I purchased was a big part of my buying decision. I wish I had known about these issues that aren't being addressed by the mfg before I made my purchase. App Developer, please update the app to get it working on current Android devices. When is your next planned update?
Well... it only seems to work if you are inside the rv. I hoped it would be accessible from my truck backing up maybe even while driving.
Doesn't connect with galaxy s8. Very frustrating!!
Works for me
Doesn't connect to Wi-Fi was a 799 dollar option on my new rv and doesn't work contacted rv eye and spent several hours trying to troubleshoot and still doesn't work and also tried on different phones Iso and Android going back to the dealer as soon as camping season is over

App does not work correctly on Android. Samsung Phone and tablet both state there is limited connectivity when connected to the supplied WiFi controller. I initially I thought I had a installation problem, but then I tried the system using an iPhone and everything works as advertised.
