A Possible Fake 4.2 Rating - Lousy App

Unable to view after switching between app. Need to shut down the app and restart again in order to view.. screen freezes after viewing for sometimes, landscape mode was a flop, and unable to sign up for Dlink cloud storage in setting, etc etc. Dear Developer, please stop replying our reviews with identical copy & paste message. That’s D-Link’s customer service?

Cheap but not cheap

1) If I had know this has no slot for SD card, I would not have bought. Why should I pay for cloud? In the end, it becomes very expensive for such backward device. (Easy to set up.) In the market, so many cheap recording devices that can be used for years without payment. 2) Why does it making super loud beep or make funny noises fm my Handphone????? Seow right? We were inside car fiddling with this app, my hp suddenly gave a loud sound, (device not with us) and my hubby had to do emergency brake. He thought something happened to the car or we hit something. We can die of heart attack!!!! 3) why must we always tap on the screen to watch? Eye4 most of the time don’t need us to tap on monitors. 4) useless alert videos, I watched its saved videos and the ones I wanted to watch always have cartwheels!!! Those I don’t want to watch are there perfectly.
Buy only when u have lots of hair and time to wait. More for kids to monitor.

Good in general

The app looks pretty and after some initial confusion I am getting used to it. A few things however:
1 I have to ack the Terms and Conditions every time I log in! As the last reviewer said, please make that stop!!!
2. Earlier I got a lot of “device such and such was disconnected” type messages. There doesn’t seem to be a convenient way to check for a firmware upgrade and force execute one. I had to set a time AND the 15 minute reminder, just setting the next possible time slot was not enough.
3. Finally why are there so many apps which all seem to do the same. There is mydlink home, there is mydlink, mydlink lite etc. etc. mydlink home prompted me to upgrade the firmware of my DSP-W115 plugs, however when clicking on the plugs in the app the apps tells me I should be in the same wifi. I thought I was, but hey, what do I know
4. On that note, I noticed my SSID showed up more than once during initial configuration. I suspect this is due to dual broadcast in the 2.4 and 5GHz spectrums. It would be helpful to provide additional info, I merely went with the best signal strength (Note: this is NOT a mesh or boosted Wifi, but a single dual channel AP).

If those issues get sorted I’ll be happy with the plugs and app as a solution over all!
