User Reviews

Reviewers repeatedly report push notifications failing after iOS updates, live view timeouts, and broad reliability issues across Amcrest View Pro 2. Some mention good video quality when it works and improvements in Version 2, but widespread bugs, display problems, and remote-access limitations dominate sentiment.

Pros

Version 2 is an improvement over the original app, with easier camera adding and better usability.
Interface is easier to use, especially for non-technical users.
When the app works, video quality is good.
Some users are overall happy with the app and the cameras.

Cons

Push notifications stop working or are unreliable, often after iOS updates.
Live view frequently times out or stalls when trying to view feeds.
Overall reliability is poor with numerous bugs affecting many features.
Video display has scaling issues and does not show the full frame on high-res devices.
Remote access is limited or not supported, making it useless when not on the local network.

Recent reviews

The live view keeps timing out when I’m trying to use it! The microphone keeps squeeling,when I’m talking thru it. The cameras weren’t saving to the systems. I never had all these issues with the first version. I’m going back!!!

The app now resizes the video to something less than the native resolution. Scale or original size does not fix. 3840x2160 does not show full image, you can pinch and zoom Out and see the entire frame But the app refuses to show full frame. This happens a few updates ago and I been waiting for it to be fixed but still has not. Why did I buy an Amcrest 8mp camera if the app does not show full frame?

Viewing the surveillance cameras on the iPhone 17 Pro Max is very unusual. Each view is zoomed in and the "Fit To Screen" setting does not fix it. If i pinch to zoom out, I can see the whole field if view but then it snaps back when I let go. Please fix
