Streamie Reviews

Unable to do anything as instructions on Streamie . Swipe. Add. Nothing

The latest update has taken a once great app and turned it to junk. The UI is so bad, it’s hardly useable, the connection crashes constantly saying “we are stalled”

Please hire someone with UI experience.

Hard to setup and unreliable. When they updated Streamie I lost the setup I had for 4 cameras and lost the $10 I paid for full functionality. Attempts to get this fixed so far have failed due to poor customer support and I will not be paying another $10 or subscribing as Streamie demands. Apple Store customer service is a joke!

Crashes all the time after the last update. Used to run in pip mode for hours, now I get about 15-20 minutes before it crashes. Rinse repeat.

Core functionality is there, but UI needs some work.

Once viewing a camera stream, UI overlay text is large and obnoxious. To exit the stream you must counterintuitively select the “Full Screen” option.
Another minor issue is that in the camera list editing camera names after creation is impossible and I don’t have an option to name them during camera set up.

I will be giving Streamie some time to improve and come back to it later. With some fairly small changes it looks like it could be a great option for home network IP cameras.

With a 4 camera group, rotated landscape, works fine. However, if I then go to do anything else in any other app, then come back to it, only the left 2 cameras are streaming. The right 2 cameras are frozen (camera date/time never updates). Have to quit and relaunch Streamie, which seems to defeat the purpose of leaving one app running while checking another. And it’s not the cameras: 2x each of 2 models, top left and bottom right both same indoor, top right and bottom left both same outdoor. They work fine when first launched, but only if I never touch Streamie again.

I’ve been using this app to monitor 10 cameras around my business. The set-up was streamlined and offers options that I have not found in other software. Reliability is excellent. The motion detection and display grid allows me to drill into each camera. The features have expanded with each upgrade while leaving my current set-up unchanged (unlike many updates). I have recommended this app to friends and even the least technical person has found the basic set-up simple to follow. Excellent support! I did reach out to the developer with a question and received an immediate response. A big thanks to this developer ... I have tried other software and this has allowed me to have a great system at a low cost.

Some IP cameras no longer support H.264. this app has worked well for me on H.265 cameras as well. Whole family uses it. Very good app and highly recommended.

Living next to a troublesome neighbor, I often found myself feeling unsafe and anxious. But thanks to this app, I’ve regained my sense of security and peace. This incredible app has transformed my iPhone into a powerful surveillance tool, allowing me to monitor my home around the clock and providing me with the much-needed reassurance I was seeking.
One of the biggest challenges of my situation was unpredictable behavior next door. But with this app's motion detection feature, I am alerted instantly whenever there is any unusual activity in my yard. The audible alerts on my phone mean I'm immediately aware of what's happening, even when I'm not directly watching the feeds.
The 24/7 recording feature is another godsend. No matter where I am or what time it is, this app is constantly recording the feed from my cameras to my local NAS. I can easily review the footage whenever I need to, giving me a sense of control over my situation and providing solid evidence if needed.
Compatibility with a wide range of cameras was also a crucial factor for me. I use a mixture of Google Nest and other ONVIF-compatible cameras around my property, and this app integrates flawlessly with all of them. It's a relief not having to switch between multiple apps; everything I need is right there in this app.
Despite the complexity of my situation, this app's user interface is wonderfully simple and intuitive. I found it effortless to set up and navigate Streamie . Plus, I love that I can sync my settings across devices. Whether I'm using my iPhone, iPad, or even my Apple TV, I have the same consistent, user-friendly experience.
I must also mention this app's integration with Hubitat. This feature allows me to get event notifications on my Apple TV, which adds an extra level of security and convenience. For example, if a door opens or a light turns on unexpectedly, I'm notified immediately.
In summary, this app has been a literal lifeline for me, turning a challenging situation into a manageable one. It has empowered me to take control of my safety, providing an intuitive, reliable, and powerful surveillance tool right in my pocket. If you're seeking peace of mind and a reliable security solution, I can't recommend this app enough!

this app is the only good camera app available.

I use steamie to monitor cameras on my Apple TV and occasionally on my phone. The interface is simple and Streamie is stable. Highly recommended. Thank you this app development team for such a useful utility

It was easy to set up my camera and monitor it with Streamie . The developer is also very responsive to any problem reports.

I am using this app to monitor 18 cameras around my house on numerous devices. I have been a customer for many years and I have watched it evolve from simply an app to stream cameras, to a fully fledged NVR surveillance solution. For the last two years, I have solely been using this app for my home surveillance needs, replacing significantly more expensive hardware and software for the simple solution that is this app.

I have wholeheartedly recommended it to several friends and acquaintances, especially the ones that are less tech savvy. It is simple to use, yet quite robust if you want it to be. The creator, Curtis, is always highly responsive if I have any questions or recommendations. I look forward to seeing this app continue to progress.

SwannView seems to have turned my camera system into abandonware. Now I have an alternative.

Best quality camera I have seen and the zoom options are incredible. Not one complaint, company has this figured out!!!!

I’ve got the full subscription and am able to view my cameras, see events as they happen, and take snapshots of stuff worth capturing. I like it.

Currently using this to monitor 4 ONVIF cameras via macOS and iPhone; can’t wait to try it on Apple TV (have a FireStick that can barely support 3 :-P). Only suggestion at the moment (unless it has this feature and I’m missing how to use it) is to be able to configure this on one device, and be able to recall that configuration on another without having to manually add and arrange all the cameras each time (cameras are apparently not “discoverable”).

Let me start by saying I stumbled upon Streamier because Streamie I was using would not work with my Unifi Protect setup. this app just worked, and it 'talks' to Unifi Protect natively which opens up a lot more options. I can now very easily monitor my home cameras and add any additional camera as long as it is a support stream type this app understands.

There is a learning curve, like any new software, stick with it and you will be impressed!

The support for the application is top notch!

Relatively new to Streamie , but I installed this looking for an easy way to broadcast some Reolink cameras to TVs within our home and it delivers everything I need and more.

The setup was quick and easy and the quality of the streams top notch. Now, anywhere in our home we can quickly get a view of our outdoor space and ensure we don’t have any little ones out around the pool.

Thanks to the people behind this app. It’s been a great experience so far and the utility this brings to our home is exactly what we were looking for.

I have tried about a dozen apps to stream my security cameras to several Apple TV connected monitors. this app is BY FAR the best app available. this app is logically broken down into simple and intuitive menus that are easy to understand even on the first attempt. this app also supports connecting to network attached storage for saving live camera feeds right from an Apple TV. Once all of the cameras are configured properly on a single Apple TV, it can sync the configuration to other Apple TV’s with a simple 6 digit code saving a lot of time. The developer, Curtis, quickly responds to any questions and is very helpful. Streamie is still in active development and I am looking forward to discovering any new features added.
