User Reviews

User reviews for Vivitar Smart Home Security are largely negative. Recurrent issues include sign-in and registration failures, authentication and server errors, and endless loading loops that prevent adding devices. Many users report the app cannot discover or connect to their devices, with two-group limits and other account restrictions complicating setup. Motion detection and alert notifications frequently fail, and reviews mention glitches that disrupt use over time. Support is often described as unresponsive or unavailable. A minority report functioning devices, but the overall sentiment is that the app is unreliable.

Pros

Some users report successful setup and functioning cameras.
A few reviews mention quick initial setup for certain devices (e.g., outdoor plug).

Cons

Account creation and login problems, including inability to register and repeated sign-in errors or server errors.
Frequent app instability, with error messages, spinning wheels, and no notifications or updates.
Device discovery and connection failures, including the app not locating devices, pairing issues, and grouping limitations.
Poor or unavailable customer support and feedback channels.
Hardware/app reliability gaps, such as devices failing after short use and motion/alerts not functioning.

Tried using this app a number of times over the years. It comes back with error messages which you have no idea what error you encountered. I don’t know how anyone uses this app on a regular basis.
