2024-12-14 | Hazir Bawan | The worst app i have ever seen, to many ad, Not connect to wifi, it doesn't matter what I do but isn't connect at all. Don't waste your time with it just a horrible app nothing more. | |
2024-12-10 | john balchin | I am really disappointed that after spending money to purchase the camera , I am besieged by irritating money chasing adverts which I find difficult to clear . At present notifications of an intruder do not alert on my phone or tablet despite much checking of settings . Therefore this camera is useless for protection. It used to do ok a year ago. | |
2024-12-06 | Curtis Johnson | I previously thought this was a good app for the product price but now I think very different. Clever dog have now added apps to a paid product which was originally app free, absolutely ridiculous. Will definitely be buying a new camera and going to avoid this brand going forwards. | |
2024-12-04 | stuart hawkes | Have moved down to 1 star. Just get ads now before any picture. My security should be first before any ads. Thrown in bin. Very annoyed. Have upped a star. Lots of issues a while ago with connectivity but an update seem to sort. Wants to update today so let's see what that brings. Overall now pleased with the camera. Can't switch off led lights and as positioned behind glass looking out over garden they wash out the whole picture. So I've put thick black tape over. | |
2024-11-27 | steven ilott | I have 5 of these cameras and all have worked well till recently when several updates introduced very annoying ads each time you tried to view one of the cameras. It's virtually impossible to exit out of the ads,and now they have sound as well. Trying to log into a camera has become a very frustrating process and it would appear that the ads are not going away. Therefore I will be going away and will uninstall the app. Cleverdog you have shot yourself in the foot. | |
2024-11-27 | Mark Polman | Frustrating to the point of unusable. Too many ads prior to being able to view camera video. | |
2024-11-21 | Aaron Jenkins | Why the hell is there a video ad I have to watch before being able to took at a SECURITY CAMERA. Wasting time watching an ad defeats the purpose of a security camera. Had this for almost 6 years and will be going to a different brand. | |
2024-11-17 | Paolo Concari | Used to be good but now... at opening endless and really low quality ads to go before accessing the camera. For a security system, it's a big NO GO!!! I'm happy to pay a fair amount to get read of that. Any service has a cost... but this ads approach seems to me a backfire for them instead... | |
2024-11-12 | Charlotte Clark | Awful! Since it's been updated. Everytime i click into the app there is constant adverts, with sound, and impossible to click off the advert. I would give 0 starts if I could | |
2024-11-08 | A Google user | Have used for some years with no problems. Then the ads started which was ok but now they are numerous and it's very difficult to even get to camera information. Have bought a new camera from another brand which will be installed next week. |
