## Description

U Guard is a Chrome extension that lets you monitor your Uniden U Guard home security cameras from anywhere on any internet-connected device. It provides 1080p live video, night vision, motion alerts, two-way audio, and playback of recorded events.

Note: For proper 1080p viewing, your home or business internet upload speed should be greater than 4 Mbps. If your upload speed is slower, consider lowering the app resolution to maintain smooth playback.

## Review summary

Users frequently complain that U Guard is unreliable: remote connection failures, inability to access live or recorded video, and laggy or blank playback. Many report playback problems, with blank screens or missing timestamps, and video only sometimes available over WiFi rather than cellular. A few positives appear: after updates, landscape mode works, and some users can view live video on mobile and hear/respond to visitors. Overall, the app suffers from poor stability and limited ongoing support, with several callers considering alternatives.

### Pros

- Landscape mode works after updates
- Live video/viewing on mobile
- Audio intercom to hear and respond to visitors

### Cons

- Frequent remote connection failures; app cannot reliably connect to cameras over the internet
- Recorded playback often not working or displays a blank screen / missing timestamps
- Streaming is laggy and unreliable; often only works on home Wi‑Fi and not cellular
- App compatibility issues with newer iOS versions and after updates causing crashes or inability to load
- Poor customer support and perceived lack of timely software updates
