User reviews

Users report that XProtect® Mobile provides effective camera feed viewing and quick basic functionality, with some support for motion timeline playback and audio streaming. However, many common issues persist, including video playback zoom distortion, frequent app and server crashes, broken notifications on Android, slow and freezing playback, and connection loss during live view. Additional complaints relate to screenshot blocking, complicated SSL certificate requirements, and buggy updates degrading user experience. Overall, users consider the app unstable and lacking critical features, leading to frustration despite its core video viewing capabilities.

The user interface, when working properly, enables playback with motion timelines.

Playback video zooming causes distortion and pixelation, especially when zooming out.

Cannot see edit Username/Password in settings anymore ? Zooming into the video stream still doesn't function well, the video streached and flashes and doesn't show correctly until you zoom back out. , Background PiP no longer works on Android?

Can't get notifications working. Milestone community forum is a joke. Support don't want to talk to you. It's illegal to advertise a product as doing something when it doesn't and the manufacturer (milestone) is required to remedy these faults by law in Australia. Read other reviews samsung notifications are not working. Feel ripped off since this is why I bought the software. Every 2c competitor can do it. Why not an expensive product like milestone? No problems with watching cameras.
