What Users Are Saying

One reviewer described using a one-developer setup that turns an Apple TV or an older Mac into an NVR-style recorder that saves to the cloud and syncs across Apple devices. They reported that after updating apps and working through initial setup, everything ran well.

The reviewer’s main concern was that recording can start a bit slowly when someone passes a camera. They suggested keeping a continuous loop recording on the hub and, when motion is detected, saving a few seconds from the loop so the event includes moments before the trigger. They felt the app was still a strong suite of tools and hoped to see support for using older iPhones as IP cameras.

Another user said the app works mostly flawlessly and that the stream quality is better than what they achieved with HomeAssistant, HomeBridge, or other IP camera software. They noted two missing NVR-style capabilities:

• Motion zones: They receive too many alerts when monitoring both a deck and the street, even with person detection enabled, making it difficult to filter events and increasing storage usage.
• HomeKit integration: They want the hub to act as a HomeKit hub so other household members can view cameras without needing the app installed.

They said if these features are added, they would recommend the app highly.

A third reviewer mentioned they were comfortable with setup but found initial settings confusing. They eventually accessed the camera website settings and had to reach out via GitHub, but the developer responded quickly. They shared a couple suggestions that improved things, and the developer said they would handle the issue in future updates. Overall, they praised the app for syncing across Apple devices.
