Worked fine for a couple days. Now it refuses to load live view for about a week or two and says there's connection issues. Nothing has changed in the setup, at all. Original Amcrest View app still working, just been using that. Edit: re-added the NVR and it began working again, but cannot view remotely. Yet, I can still view remotely using the original version. I'm uninstalling this app until I hear the devs did something worthwhile.

Garbage app. I mean, it works I guess. But there are so many UI problems..it makes me want to go get a job there, fix the problems, and then immediately quit. Just out of spite so I can properly use the app. Specifically: Trying to scroll to a specific time is almost impossible. Half the time I try to select a time in playback, the app will shift over to a different time, or will go back to the beginning. Also having to zoom back in the area I was just zoomed in on when I restart the segment.

I went back to using Pro because the PTZ in Pro 2 doesn't work properly. When you swipe a direction the camera goes fully to its limits in that direction. There is no graduation to position adjustment. The PTZ control button does nothing, have to use finger on image to swipe for direction change. Update: Changed to one star because cameras won't connect away from home. The old View Pro connects to all my cameras when away from home.
