## Review summary

Users commonly experience issues with EdiLife's camera detection and connection stability, motion detection, and time synchronization. The app is slow and has a poor interface design that frustrates users. Many report lack of developer support and unaddressed bugs. While initial setup and basic camera connectivity can work, the app overall fails to deliver reliable remote monitoring and motion event management, making it unreliable for surveillance needs.

### Pros

- Successfully connects to cameras initially in some cases.
- Works mostly fine for cameras under stable conditions.
- Allows basic device setup like setting device name and password.

### Cons

- App frequently fails to detect or connect to cameras, especially after updates or on certain Android versions.
- Motion detection and video recording features are unreliable or missing functionality (e.g., not saving footage).
- Time synchronization between app and cameras is faulty or requires manual syncing with incorrect time formats.
- Slow camera connection and poor user interface design limit usability.
- Lack of response and support from developers, including no updates or fixes for reported issues.
