User Reviews

The Lorex hardware is praised and viewed as solid, but the iOS app is repeatedly criticized for unreliability and lack of updates. Top issues include failed remote viewing, crashes after iOS updates, slow performance, limited camera visibility (often 4 of 8), and poor customer support. Users also gripe about having to manage multiple Lorex apps and a lack of ongoing compatibility with current iOS versions. Overall, the hardware shines while the app experience is consistently problematic.

Pros

High-quality Lorex camera hardware and surveillance systems that perform well when the app functions.
A single Lorex app can manage multiple NVRs, reducing the need to juggle several separate apps.
Longstanding hardware reputation; many reviewers note the cameras themselves are reliable and feature-rich when the system works.

Cons

App reliability is poor and inconsistent, with frequent remote-viewing failures across reviews.
App has not been updated to stay compatible with current iOS versions, leading to crashes and broken functionality after updates.
Remote viewing often does not work outside the local network, with many users requiring workarounds or reporting complete failure.
Performance issues like slow loading and playback further degrade the user experience.
Limited live view capability (often only 4 of 8 cameras accessible) and connectivity drops are commonly reported.
Customer support is described as poor or unhelpful, with long wait times and ineffective troubleshooting.
Multiple Lorex apps create confusion and frustration for users.

Recent reviews

Went from optimum to verizon 3.5 years ago and system is a complete failure. Called several times. They blame verizon. Ring cameras work perfectly. Call them now and they tell me i have to upgrade to a new system. Absolutely ridiculous on their part

Did you do away with it? I need it for my cameras I got 8 or so years ago that work great still, but if you did away with the app I’m screwed! I need it back please.
