Live view is often unstable—video freezes or goes black—while the app itself can be slow and unresponsive. Cloud recording and video retrieval are reported as unreliable. Some reviews also cite limited app functionality and device compatibility, and a perception that the software lacks ongoing updates. Overall, the product can perform well, but reliability and software quality are major concerns.
