Amcrest View Pro 2

After purchasing an Amcrest security camera with remote monitoring capability, I went to set up the application. As it turns out, there are two. It seemed logical enough that Amcrest View Pro 2 would be the newer and better option. That was the wrong choice. Amcrest View Pro 2 hasn’t worked well for me. Audio from the camera is unintelligible and sounds like burbling nonsense. Intercom mode crashes the camera’s firmware (fully updated at the time of writing). A message that might have been important popped up in Chinese, which certainly casts doubt on just who and where this program was really developed. It’s not any failing of the camera — while it too is pretty mediocre, the audio and intercom work just fine from another DVR software package and the camera’s own internal web pages. Amcrest support hasn’t been too helpful, with suggestions I have either already tried (camera firmware update) or that are irrelevant (factory resetting the camera when it is working fine with other software). I switched to the older Amcrest View Pro application and that solved all the problems, suggesting that this application could use another look. I hope Amcrest will invest the effort.

Nothing work I just got new camera IP8M 4k and won’t connect to app I try everything camera new internet working fine Connect with P2P I’m a iT

It used to work well showing g full resolution of dual 4k (wide angle) cameras on previous iPhone but when I got the new iPhone 16 the resolution is cropped. It shows fine on the monitor connected to the screen but not on the iphone

Never able to get this software to work correctly on M1 Mac with latest OSX. Incredible lack of support for Mac OSX. How is this even allowed on the Apple platform…embarrassing dysfunctional. Get another type of camera if this is all they dan do.

Did anyone from Amcrest try using this before releasing it. The Home Screen lists all cameras correctly, but all will have same image of whichever camera you last looked at. Constantly get an error stating that maximum connections have been exceeded when trying to look at a camera when I’m the only person viewing them. Sticking with the version one app for now.

They’re android people and don’t work on letting their app to work with iPhone even though it could be the difference between catching a criminal or not.

If you enjoy having your fingernails pulled you will love this app. A real piece of trash. I gave up and went over to Reolink cameras and apps, they set up easy and stay connected.

Most of it works good. I have 2 PTZ cameras and this app or any of their apps do not allow you to make a PTZ set point. Instead you have to access the camera with a computer and then figure out how to do it. Please add this feature.

The application that will power your equipment is broken, outdated and unreliable. Find yourself a different company to deal with as once you buy Amcrest you will regret it.

Cant add nvr ip address … fix your app/
