Wansview for Android
its annoying to set up and doesnt work right away
Buggy, slow, and unresponsive
Connecting, offline. Every time
Works from Dublin to Canada!
Ismartviewpro / homeguard cams work with this app.. So far the app works well.. Tested on sony z3.and z5.android 6.1 and over 3g.working but could not conect over 4g... please wansview can you make the touchscreen buttons more sensitive I have to keep taping many times to change things and it's only on this app I get the problem..
Most notifications are false alarms, even with sensors set to low. Also, it fails to send notifications while movement happens right in front of the camera. Not to mention the lack of snapshots for motion detection notifications. This app needs a lot of work
Camera looks great. However, if you minimize the app window, the camera won't connect. Having to go into apps and doing a force stop every time. Very inconvenient.
A much needed improvement on ismartview pro. Plenty of extra settings. It's also worth emailing Wansview for the latest firmware update to make the most of the new features.
Downloaded 3 times. Tried to sync with cameras ..I don't know how many times. No confirmation. No picture. No menu. No trouble shooting advice. Awful. Don't bother.
Software's disappointing can't even scan the memory card to access your files(pictures or recorded videos) that's on the camera. So if any event that shows up on the camera it can't be played back through the app only live can events can!
My phone (HTC10) normally lasts between 1.5 and 2 days on a full charge. This took the battery from 75% to dead in 3 hours. Overnight. With the phone not being touched.
Too confusing to setup
Urrr
Straight forward and easy set up. 2 cameras set-up so far and both work perfectly
Not a great app, cameras are better but buggy & not very reliable. Don't use the app! Use 3rd party software instead and you can make them work.
Bought a camera, should take 5mins to set up. 1hr later, still no further. Connect to router via cable, powered on, scanned the camera QRcode aaaaaand nothing. Camera will not add to the app. I tried a couple of similar apps and they're all the same. So far it's rubbish and certainly a waste of money.
Have to change my email password but the app fails to save the settings. I even tried deleting and reinstalling that app but that doesn't work. UPDATE: reboot the camera within the app seems to have fixed the problem.
45% equipment failure, purchased more than 100 units 45% fail immediately or later after using. Return repair another major failure service
The app is simple and complete. It does everything it says. A great way to monitor activity on you cam's as well as record and save. Love it.
Good app but runs in background when not using causing battery to prematurely run out. Lost 2 stars due to this 'fault'.
The cameras are excellent! The quality is great, and installation was simple. The app also works wonderfully with no ads. Thank you for an exceptional product.
Sends your data to China. Block it from the Internet (but allow LAN), and block the IP cam after setting it up.
Decent app for my new camera. It works very well and it's clear. Recording and taking pictures is very easy.
The cam I have got is good quality but the software let's it down a lot. When motion detects it let's you know with a pop up message then you have to work your way through the app to try find what set it off. Really quick to inform you but if it could inform you with a pop up of what it detects I would buy 3 more cameras. I'm waiting to see if an update comes through. Please guys sort this app out it could be a great system if you work on the software
App works well. Some things are a bit confusing to figure out but so far everything works as they should, including email alerts, motion sensor alerts, video streaming, etc. People that say it's a battery leach, there is an option to exit out of the app or else if you just close it, it will say "running in background". You have to fully exit out of it.
The app still sucks bad. Besides rampant grammar mistakes, there are tons of bugs. Uses a bunch of battery life.
Agree with previous reviewer, horrendous battery leach, have to remember to force-close after every use to prevent battery drain within a few hours on standby, even when app is"off".
I had no problems setting up the camera and wifi connection. A lot of issues with camera are probably due to slow Internet connections.
This app hides in the background when you close it and continues to stream the video data. When I was away from my wireless network it used hundreds of megabytes of my mobile data, presumably trying to reach the camera (which is only available on my land anyway).
