Notice that even after the events are deleted somehow it reappears. Then it seem that the deletion don't work at all and data continues to reside in the storage. In the latest version, when set to screen lock then at the viewer side you would not be able to view the imagae as most if the time they will prompt you with transmission error. This does not occur in the older version.

I liked this at first but after about a month or so the camera stopped detecting movement all the time. I could clearly see my dog in the frame frozen for hours but the camera didn't go off at all. Sometimes the walkie talkie aspect of it doesn't work either. Also don't love that if I try to use the phone for something else the camera will just open and take over even if it's closed and cleared from my phone. Very glad I didn't pay for this.

It's the best smartphone security camera app. period. Has 90% of the features a Brinks camera/app offers minus their outrageous costs or all the 🐂💩 that comes w/their confusing activation/sync method. All one needs is an unused smartphone, a power cord & nearby outlet, & a reliable wifi signal. And then after activating said camera via Alfred's fool-proof & stress-free QR code you'll be able to access your cameras from anywhere on the planet that has internet access.
