App is good! Has bugs. Paid version still has ads although not as overbearing. Control phone will lose connection to video if you put in background. To change apps, need to exit then restart control app. There is no ad free version.
Ads are annoying but that is why they advertise you to watch a 30 second app, maybe more, to have 30 minute of experience without ads, like what Spotify did to their free customers. It's pretty straight forward and using your Google account and free cloud storage which is handy. It's pretty good I guess.
Hello. Thank you for the wonderful Wardencam app. I use it with pleasure. I'm writing to you because since the last update, the push notifications from the motion sensor no longer work. What can I do to enable motion sensor notifications?
Using pro version. Good app. Has some bugs. Switching from viewer to camera mode hangs the app across all my devices, running on Android 7 to 12. Needs drastic improvisation.
I have used the security app Warden Home Security Camera (WardenCam) a few other different times through-out the many yrs I've first seen in Google Play Store. And since then I've never used any other kind, I have tried pretty much all of them that works the best is (WardenCam) the best one is the one for (Apple Iphone 12 Mini).....
I like the app but I bought the lifetime service and sometimes it doesn't connect my phones to the account and it limits the time you can use them as cameras and like now my viewer isn't showing me as a paid user and shows ad's I hope that its fixed soon and I will change my rating
While it works as expected, on a fast enough phone, recorded video are still sometimes a bit lacking. Also due to low FPS, sometimes you miss exactly that what you wanted to see in the motion detected stored video. But otherwise, it's ok.
Having had youths banging my door to the point it opened, I installed this on my phone and an old phone. The movement detection picked up the movement and over 2x 20 second clips I was able to send footage to their school and get the youths identified. Easy to set up and use with good quality capture.
Used to work great, but now no notifications. Checked all settings and should work. I open the app (viewer) and new motion videos are there. Made sure up-to-date on camera and viewer, and rebooted both. Notifications stopped working. Samsung Note 9 & Android 10.
I upgraded to the pro version and it won't connect to the cell phone that I'm using for the survalance camera. Just says loading for several hrs. Wish I could get my money back
Have only used briefly, but works great. Very impressed at the ease of setting up and functionality.
Nice app it has a storage limit option fix that bug please ... Easy to use good app helped a lot for a old phone video sequrity app
I've downloaded several apps to turn my old phone into a security camera and I couldn't get any of them to work. I downloaded this one and honestly I think my 5 year could have set it up. It was truly that simple. The rest of the ones I downloaded were way too technical with having to know ip addresses and port numbers and such. Didnt have to know anything for this one. It's cut and dry. Simple. Downloaded it. Its awesome. Plus the picture is good too!!
It is a neat idea be I really want to use it, but it keeps on uploading multiple versions of the same files to Google drive, filling it up with megabytes of unnecessary data and killing my drive space. Its not occasional. It's constant, rendering the app extremely difficult to use, as you can't find your videos in the hundreds of copies. (note - I've found that using Dropbox doesn't have the issue).
It is a really good app and it works as described. I only have two things that I would change. When I have it set on 1080p the motion events are super laggy. Granted the phone being used as the camera is basically a toaster lol so I run it on 480p. The other is that the motion detection clips are too short so I end up with a billion clips to sort through even set on medium. Wish they were in longer intervals. Besides that, great job developers and thank you for all of your hard work.
When the app works and you can stream your video using another phone, it works fine. Most of the time, it doesn't work. The app is very inconsistent and super slow to load up the live stream or cloud videos. The web viewer also doesn't work and I only see a black screen after I logged in. This feels like a beta version and not production ready. You get what you pay for.
the cameras stay connected much better than they used to. Two issues I have. First, these things pick up everything. I wish it was smarter to detect only human movement instead of some snow blowing. Second, their encryption is supposedly an in house solution, not an open software encryption. I'm not convinced there's even any encryption in the first place because it took multiple emails to get a response. be leery, don't point cameras inside.
It is wonderful app. I couldn't imagine that an app make an abandoned cell phone so brilliant CCTV IP camera. It is mind blowing. In my house I have two IP cameras. It is equally excellent and no less than the professional cameras. Picture is crystal clear. Only problem is due to internet connection and speed make trouble. Otherwise it is unperall. All the more free cloud storage. Thanks to the developer.
Waste of money, upgraded to the $5.99 plan, it took awhile to remove the ads from first phone. The second and third phone viewer, never got it to remove the ads. Followed every step per their Q&A and still having ads issues. Emailed them never got a response. They got the money, they don't care if ask. Got the alfred instead, it works! No issues, easy set up, no more headaches. I want my money back Wardencam. Is a war trying to make it work. Move on, don't spend your money here.
