Amcrest IP Cam Viewer Customer Insights

1. The fact that Owlr hasn't responded to the reviews saying this, as they have with other reviews, tells me they don't know what's going on.The developers of OWLR Amcrest and other makes and models deserve an AMAZING pat on the back.

2. A half-dozen other apps connect instantly but this "official" one won't.Worked great for a long time, now in the last month or so just stopped working.

3. Compared to the amcrest official app that keeps dropping the connection, this one is solid!! Thank you!!Hi, it looks like you read the reviews.

4. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your hard work on the apps and the continued code updates!It may have "Amcrest" in the name but it sure won't connect to that brand.

5. When it was working (on Android 9) this app is much better than Amcrest's own software.I don't care about alarms or emails for any advanced features, I have all that security with other programs.

6. I can reach network interfaces within my LAN so I know my VPN works but with this app you can't access locally defined addresses when it doesn't detect you are on WiFiUnfortunately, despite many good reviews.

7. The issues come when you are slightly out of those bounds and you use VPN to reach back to your internal network and want to use the internal IP of your IP cameras when not on WiFi to reach your internal network.

8. I needed something that I could quickly open up the camera and see what's happening making this the perfect companion app for my amcrest camera.

9. After upgrading to android 10, for some reason it wouldn't connect to my camera.

10. It can't add cameras because it can't detect that you are indeed connected to a WIFI network.

11. But with your last revision suddenly the camera rotates to landscape and there is no way to stop it even though my phone is locked in portrait.
