So far: it seems to work, but there are no settings for camera image size, no settings for ISO, or exposure, the image viewer allows no zoom, crop, adjustment of any kind. The folder stated in "help" seems to not exist in my SD card. Minimally useful, as is... Happy to change rating if these issues are fixable, or just not visible to me?

Beats the heck out of paying $14 a month. However I'd be more than willing to pay a yearly fee if it would text instead of email... Also the sensitivity doesn't matter whether at 0 or 100, and I have tried all the way in-between, so you end up with several pictures on the cloud that can only be erased one at a time. Takes about an hour to erase 60 photos, and usually get around 30 a day from the movement of the sun on my walls or blinds.

Really wanted this app to work. It would not send an email via 4G connection. Thought it was my VPN. Allowed it to tunnel VPN free. That didn't work either; no email. I had images coming up on their cloud even. Can't delete images once they are on their cloud and that makes me really suspicious about privacy concerns. It'll capture pics to your phone and you can change sensitivity settings, but no video. It takes 10-20seconds to setup again. What if the intruder saw the phone and delete image?
