AirBeam Video Surveillance App Reviews

Good

Works much better, but using camera on 4s has a major battery drain. Please fix, if possible.

Really cool

This app works like it claims. It takes video when motivation detected and I have it save to my drop box. It has really awesome motion detection software so it highlights motion if you want. The only downfall is you have to leave your iPad iPhone or other device. So since I take my phone with me, I cannot leave it at home to monitor my home.

So far so good

When I am home on the same network it works flawlessly a. Sometimes its a little delay with the portmapping thingy but otherwise

I Think I Wasted My Money

Worked great for all of 5 minutes. Connected my iPhone 6 to a 4s and worked fine - as advertised. After about 10 minutes basking in how cool this is... This app crashed in the 4s- and since then, I get a unknown device type error and no longer can connect to my 4s. Looking at other reviews I see that this has been a problem since July, and now we are in October - has the developer retired? If this doesnt get fixed, then Ive wasted my money.

Hangs when processing

Hangs almost every time it goes to process. I cant monitor my pets to see which one is sick because of this glitch. Fix it and Ill re up the rating

Love it, but...

I love this app and use it all around the house And now with the support for AppleTV 4 its become even more functional than ever! But heres the thing, I have in each room, an old device I owned and after it served its time as a phone or iPod or iPad, I use as an observation cam now... Two of these devices are iPods 4 and one is an iPhone 4... They worked amazingly good! But after the AirBeam 2 was released for iOS 8 and above, I thought it was ok, Ill keep the older devices on the old app and let them transmit as usual... But turns out the new airbeam2 doesnt detect the videos transmitted by the AirBeam 1, which made me "blind" in three of my houses rooms! Of course, I can always check those cams on safari, but this is not very functional since the nice thing about the app was that I opened it on my iPhone or on my iPad and was able to see what the kids were doing in each room! Now, in those three rooms, I have to open safari and key in the IP address... I understand that AirBeam 2 only supports iOS 8 and above... But it wouldve been nice to make AirBeam and AirBeam 2 play well together especially that Im sure most of the people are using their old outdated devices as their observation cams and not their iPhone newest devices... I wish the developers would reconsider and make AirBeam 2 play well with AirBeam 1 and accept its videos... (No need for the other way round since most observation is done on new devices but the transmission is done on old devices) Thanks...

Used to be great...

Still waiting for an update to make this good again. 6 doesnt work with 6s. 4 cant be updated past air beam 1 and that wont work with any other devices, but still works better and more reliably as a standalone than 2.0 does on my other devices. Please please please bring back the old version. 6 months and barely anything has been done...

Update made it not work

New update screwed everything up app is not working please fix

Update broke it!

Yep, like others have said the update has rendered my iPad and iPad mini useless as monitors. If I try to view a camera on either the app immediately crashes. The preview window works but when selecting which camera to view it crashes every time. Kinda makes it worthless.

Upgrade disaster

The upgrade is non function as noted by others the screen goes black when a camera is selected. Amateur hour company.

Update crashed this app

Like others, lost monitor function with update. Fortunately we have iPad with prior version which still works, but this is really an amateur piece of software. Look elsewhere.

Awesome App!!!

Most complete of its kind. Super useful

Awful

Save your money. Does not work. What a rip.

Works nicely

This app works like it claims. It takes video when motivation detected and I have it save to my drop box. It has really awesome motion detection software so it highlights motion if you want.

Amazing tool for Vjs and security

Where to begin? I use several Idevices around a club (or have purchased this app for a few friends with iPhones) and live stream their feeds into Resolute arena. Total wireless hd footage in a fairly large club and venue with remote lights and remote recording to the local devices etc. Each camera can also be used as it now independent live stream via HTTP. otherwise I use it on older phones or devices (i never get rid of old devices just repurpose them) and can use it as a security camera to record motion detection and review it. Works great and has been a great solution for a club where I don’t want to have a bunch of wires etc.

Dont buy!!!

This app does not connect to other devices even if they are connected to the same network. After closing the app the screen changes to full brightness. I would not recommend this app to anyone.

Excellent App

Great application! Well thought out user interface and easy to use. There is never a lag in streaming from another device while on WIFI.
