TerribleSo you buy a camera and want to access it? Here’s some ads! Want to see notifications? Ads and paywalls. If you still can, just return the product, the app is no worth the camera’s price
Ads!!! And uselessIt used to be something you could actually use. Now too many ads as they want you to signup for their monthly recording service and constantly pummel you with popups and now ads that open in the browser and you can’t even view your cameras that are using the SD card. Ridiculous! Will have to look at…
Unusable due to adsUnusable due to ads
