User Reviews

Users find the app easy to set up and capable of streaming/recording to a NAS, including remote use. However, many reviews report connectivity problems and crashes, licensing costs, and missing core features (camera controls, LED, landscape mode). Administrative restrictions and vague docs add friction. Overall, the app is seen as functional in some setups but unreliable and lacking in essential capabilities for a serious surveillance setup.
Pros
  • Easy setup / straightforward to get started
  • Remote viewing/streaming to NAS and recording from outside network
  • Ability to record directly to NAS from phone
Cons
  • Frequent connectivity issues and instability (inability to connect to NAS, crashes, OS compatibility problems)
  • Licensing model requires additional licenses for cameras and the app, perceived as expensive
  • Missing essential camera controls and features (focus/zoom, ISO control, LED control, landscape recording)
  • Admin-only access and confusing permissions/documentation

Won’t even connect anymore. Why keep advertising as a feature when you know it doesn’t work??

Please add a basic description to this application. It’s hard to tell which synology application is intended to do what.

Congratulations on inventing virtual garbage. This app is nothing other than a waste of time and space.
