This app is getting better with each release Thank you Axis Streaming reliability is better but could stand a little more improvement Feature requests the ability to swipe through camera live views rather than having to close out back to the grid to select another camera The ability to reboot a camera from the app I have a troublesome camera and need to reboot it periodically                 Better with age SHP1968

This app is getting better and better after the years Axis is duing a good job with this app                     Very good after updates RogerLevy

Need to be able to search by time date in the app without having to manually scroll back days in the timeline We can do this on the desktop software why not on the app EDITED to 5 stars Axis took my feedback and applied this to the app Greatly appreciated                     Need time date search Alarmtechy

Export video quality is great however what good is export of video with out a time date stamp in court Slower lower quality on windows PC platform but at least it has the time date stamp attached to the file     App needs work CLEVERBULLAZ

Slow to pickup feeds drops off more than online stream is patchy at best I have this system installed at three locations for over two years and while it work OK on site streaming is a zero out of eleven Buy the system but do not expect to be a streaming genie     Not very good APP for what they charge for the system sheamus8812

I ve been involved in the security and automation industry for almost 10 years which isn t quite as long as compared to some I ve developed planned installed and been the end user of many different high end systems Many of which require per camera licenses After a while of paying upgrade fees and yearly license fees I ve been getting tired of dealing with this for my residential system With this industry I am constantly adding removing and changing cameras and devices found on my property So I figured I d give the camera companion a try I knew it would be a MAJOR change from going to a high end third party recording system to local storage Unfortunately I also knew I was going to be losing some features on the mobile app Not being able to control my PTZ cameras was one of them I think that should be a GIVEN in any modern recording software You can control it on the PC software but not on my mobile device This mobile app also doesn t have the ability to view multiple cameras at once You can view multiple still images at once but not live footage That s my two largest complaints at the moment If this were to be fixed I think it would be a great platform along with some other things that need to be addressed Yes I know it s suppose to be an entry level system but there are some features that should just be a given especially with a high end manufacturer For now it s back to the third party system but if Axis were to get their stuff together I would love to try it again in the future             It s a start but needs some more features wolfgang sullivan

Installed it Detected my cameras Not one is compatible Told me to use the computer version only available on windows     Absolutely blows Tigerfanatic

Using the correct login information this app does not load anymore     App doesn t load anymore Sh4d0wDuck

More than half the time it can t connect     Not reliable pmv315

I went through all the bother of setting up an account and it was much bother as account set up kept failing I suspect password restricitons but no info available on that Took two tries and two email accounts What did I find Absolutely nothing about how to set up camera in the app Just advertiseements App Store directs you to an Axis website Another mess of confusing information mostly ads for services As far as I can tell you have to use a PC program to do set up Deleting Want my time back     Miserable experience to no end ursadog

Sharing a video recording doesn t seems to work with the iPad version It works on iPhone 6 All devices running iOS 10 0 2 at the moment                 Sharing doesn t work on iPad MauriB79

Installs and set up is easy but very disappointed this app is so weak and lacks many typical features other security camera apps use For example can t even activate the cameras LED lamp They make excellent camera so surprised didn t make more of an effort to release or improve this app Don t bother with it     Lacks features Hebs01

1 The Report a Problem link in iTunes doesn t work leads to a page that doesn t exist anymore 2 Logging in to an account setup with a PC I don t see any of the sites I set up on the PC 3 Attempting to create another site in the app I can discover the camers but they re both greyed out             No sites listed Josh Graessley

Make it possible so I can add cameras manually and I ll give you a higher rating I can t add my camera because it s behind a firewall using port forwarding and your limited software won t let me add it     Ugh fearnot

Remote connection stops working even though I can see video remotely though a web browser When it does work there are long delays before video is visible Quality is good though         Slow when works MrRMNB

I wish it was more feature filled including Ability to turn LEDs on Ability to talk through camera speaker Multi view should be live and give various view options Speed to bring bring up videos is much slower than third party apps Basically I use this only to access stored recordings I use Owlr for live view as it can turn my LEDs on and it is extremely quick to get live video going I hope Axis can complete the feature set so I can use just one app             Missing Some Features BVaria

    Requires Windows to set up auskropp

This is by far one of the most useless and unreliable apps I have ever downloaded from the App Store The features are limited designed for viewing only with no remote control capabilities of my cameras Five times out of 10 my site will fail to load and I can not get access to my cameras It s also common for me to be able to load one camera but not the other I never have the confidence I should have that the app is going to function correctly 100 of the time when I am away and need to monitor my home Overall I am on the fence about the products from this company The build quality of the cameras are mostly good but not enough attention is paid to the software which side of things which is taking on an increasingly larger role And did I mention their support     Just start over again server refugee

Much improved It loads much faster and is way less buggy The app is usable now                 Can t export recordings Pepperoniface

All of my passwords and login to myAxis was deleted when I updated the app I don t see why these couldn t be preserved         Not carefully reviewed by developer Loggill

What s the point of having cameras with audio and an app that doesn t support audio         Really Nickname228

No ptz control No presets But the cameras are viewable and sites easily managed Haven t tried audio         Basically Working roognation

Can t access camera from app unless onsite         Axis companion Hebsusbtajauv

Still has issues closing out after selecting camera     Issues Killer Viking

The first thing this app tells you is to setup cameras using the Axis Client for Windows This is an app for iPhone Why would I have access to a Windows machine To make this app useful it should let you setup cameras How hard could that be to add     Useless Requires setup in Windows PC client _ikon

Increases the value of my axis investment                     Love this app Smoliva

I m glad axis finally has their own app It is a good start and can t wait to see the future versions and the features it brings so that it operates just like the companion                 Good Start Wrwiii12

Works when I m in the office but not when I m off site     Not working miguelblanc
