HOW CAN I SEE MY DOG
I gave a one star because the entire idea is to be able to see your animal at a moments notice but when it comes to this app as I try to see them live it contstantly tells me that it’s unable to display video and I have to constantly try over and over again until it wants to work ! And it’s not the Wi-Fi or data ITS THE APP
Terrible
Time waster doesn’t work unless you pay a yearly fee do t waste your time
Predatory pricing changes
So after I pay the annual fee they now decide to charge an additional monthly fee in order to have video. The ultimate bait and switch. Do not recommend. What a predatory change in their pricing. Will definitely be cancelling and trying a different app
READ BEFORE DOWNLOADING!!!
I didn’t realize that you have to get premium to monitor your dog. Otherwise a great app! I don't like it because you have to pay for everything! Like I can't even see my dog for more than thirty minutes!
Doesn’t work
This worked great…for a few hours. After the first few hours of the first day the camera no longer worked and I no longer got motion detection alerts. The pre-recorded commands also were very spotty with working. This was the first time I left my dog home alone long term and needless to say, I was incredibly disappointed when I was unable to monitor her.
Crashes
Constantly crashing. Never able to see pup. Camera sits next to router… not an internet issue.
Horrible
Bought it to watch our cat while gone, NEVER WORKED.... EMAILED THEM FOR HELP AND TO TRY TO GET OUR MONEY BACK. NO REPLY!
Has potential
Great when it works.
