User Reviews

The Kangaroo app is valued for occasional strong video quality and affordable hardware, but users repeatedly encounter onboarding blockers, unreliable streaming, weak support, disruptive ads/paywalls, and unstable camera connections. The product may deliver when it works, yet the rhythm of setup, reliability, and service issues diminishes overall satisfaction.

Pros

Good video quality when the feed streams properly.
Inexpensive hardware with affordable alarms and SD card support, offering value for money.
Some users report long-term value and potential savings (e.g., insurance) with extended use.

Cons

Unreliable app for streaming: live view often fails, buffering occurs, and playback can be unusable.
Setup and onboarding are frequently blocked by address/registration errors and confusing flows.
Poor customer support and post-sale experience, including merger-related service gaps and cancellation issues.
Ads in the app and paywalls to view recordings or use premium features reduce usability.
Cameras frequently go offline or lose connection, requiring re-install or re-setup.

All I want to do is sign up and it will not complete the process until I give it all of my credit card information. I do not want to buy anything so there is no reason I should give them my credit card information but it will not finish my registration without providing credit card information. I thought the system could be good, but this makes me want to return it.

Called quite a few times until answered but when employee did answer very helpful and very kind help through my problems. App was a little iffy but eventually did work pretty good service pretty good app. I would suggest buying unless you don’t like having to be patient on phone calls then it might be a waste of your money. Otherwise I am a huge fan love it. It’s very Useful and pretty good app compared to some other others I’ve used.
