App Fatigue
My app worked fine for the last year. All of the sudden it no longer works. Tried everything. Reconfigured, reset, delete/reinstall, change settings, etc. I cannot get it to work anymore. I used this app daily so it is really bothering me that I don't have access like I used to. UPDATE: This app is terrible. I have been getting notifications that the app would no longer work with newer versions of iOS. That day has now come and one of the primary reasons I purchased the app is no longer functioning. ZERO STARS. UPDATE September 28, 2017: App is working again! I have no complaints at this time as the app is functioning to my expectations. Hopefully Swan will pay closer attention to it this time and maintain and update it accordingly. UPDATE October 1, 2017: Can't slide through different camera frames. Double clicking on a camera does not make it full screen anymore. When changing phone position from portrait to landscape, the screen glitches and half the camera views get cut in half. Clearly the app developer is not a quality developer.

Gotta be kidding me (update below)
So you say you can remotely view surveillance cameras on your app? This is a pathetic app and either needs to be updated or a "disclaimer" be included with these cameras Sams sells that says "don't expect to be able to remotely access your cameras from your apple device" (edit) thank you, thank you, thank you for updating the app! My cameras now work remotely! I will now purchase these cameras for my house in addition to the cameras at my business.

Much Needed Update
Bought 4 of their 1080p cameras over a year ago. I keep them displayed on a monitor 24/7, quality is amazing, software decent. But the phone app was absolutely atrocious, worse problem being roughly a 3 sec skip at a time on live view, which is pointless to watch. UI not great either. Finally an update today where the lag/skip on live view is fixed! Haven't really checked for other changes or improvements yet but clear live view is great!
