User Reviews

The RTSP Security Camera app is praised for its simplicity and effective local network streaming without cloud dependency. Users appreciate direct streaming to VLC and its straightforward usage. However, multiple reviews highlight issues such as forced location permission, frequent crashes, limited settings, high resource consumption causing performance problems, and connectivity errors with media players. Overall, while it meets basic streaming needs, users desire more features and stability improvements.

Cons

Issues with server not found errors when connecting through other players like VLC or QuickPlayer

Works as advertised. I however needed to disable Androids power saver which killed the app every now and then due to high power consumption. I would love if I were able to lock the focus of the camera.
