Great cat eye spy

My wife and I work all day everyday and we have two cats. We like to check in on them just to make sure that they’re okay. The eye4 camera is great for that. We can even use the laser light to play with them for a sec. It’s great

No storage after paying!

I bought this camera over a year ago. It worked great for almost a year, then one day it stopped storing footage. I paid for a storage plan and then it won’t activate. The money was deducted from my account and apple reimbursed me the 1st few times it double charged me but then I tried it again months later and it still won’t work and store any footage. It keeps taking my money but I get no results…and now apple won’t reimburse me. I ask for help with the chat but they never answer and there is no way to contact any actual person.

Glitchy

The app is very glitchy and connection times out all the time and I’ve tried customer service and they ask me to download another app which is kinda sketchy that they have two apps that do the same thing. Also find it very odd there hasn’t been an update in over a year.

Good and worth be Best!

The program is awesome and for the most part easy to use. Some functions/operation needs more work. It’s difficult to delete all of the reports from motion detection. There needs to be a filter for deletion of events and more updates to the app could take care of issues. This app would be awesome if it could except more cameras from different vendors. It does not work with another popular vendor Z-Ben, and several other vendors from the same Shenzhen area. Hopefully they can add more vendors to the Eye4 family.

Privacy - doesn’t allow to proceed without location sharing

For useless reason app wants users to share their location and it doesn’t allow to configure the camera if users disallow location sharing (the screen keeps going back instead of allowing users to choose wifi and enter password which should suffice for adding a device..location information shouldn’t be mandatory to add your own camera to your own network for which you have password)

App needs to be optimised for IOS 16

Hi, Please note that the app is not in its usual full screen mode after iOS 16 and it crashes randomly. Please update app as we do find it useful for daily usage. Thanks

— bad patch5.9.18

★★☆☆☆ United States · v5.7.8 · 28 Nov 2023

Very unstable, completely unusable software

When the app connects to the camera, it works great for about 10 seconds, then it disconnects and tries to re-coonect. IF it manages to re-connect, it will take 3-5 mis to re-connect, if it can at all. ½ the time it takes 3-5 attempts to re-connect, then it works fine for a minute or two and drops the connection. It’s too bad that the software makes the camera unusable, as it looses the connection constantly, takes a really long time to re-connect, then as soon as you try to point the camera somewhere it drops the connection, despite the fact that I have a powerful WiFi-mesh network with a very strong signal, the software can’t go 5 mins without loosing the connection. It’s too bad because the camera has 18x optical zoom, is incredibly clear at long distances, it has very strong night vision, but is totally worthless due to the awful camera software.

Bugs Reporting

There is a bug within the app setting since a few years ago until now. After on the alarm for an unlimited period of time, it would turn off itself again after a few days. Go into the alarm setting again, it shows “limitations reached”, after taken away the time limitation, and change to unlimited period of time again, a few days later it would turn itself off again and so on.

No alarm notification

Not sure why, recently there was no motion detection notification sent to iPhone despite it was working well previously. My notification alarms in settings are all turned on and I have checked the eye4 app that the camera will send a notification to the phone right after it triggers the alarm. Need some help here. It is so inconvenient that there is no real time notification.

Won’t ever let me connect now

After over a year of using this and taking it places with me and connecting it there it no longer allows me to connect to it. I’ve done everything that the support has suggested and nothing is working. It works great when it works but when it doesn’t work you’re just out of your money. I recommend looking for a different brand unless money is no object and you don’t care if it works or not.

Require Location permission msg each cam. No thanks.

The last two releases they are trying to make you accept your location so they know where you’re at each time you view your cam on your phone. What is the purpose of a cam if you know where people are? They need to please remove that message once a person clicks cancel until a reboot or never again. I started purchasing other cams for this reason. If I select cancel, do not show that message again until I reboot or never again until I upgrade. Thank you.
