Foscam Surveillance Pro by Maurice de Bijl

Description

With this app you can remotely view and control your Foscam IP camera from your iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch. From wherever you are*! You can use it for example for home security (is someone breaking into your home?), home automation (did I leave the lights on?) or to watch your little baby kid while it sleeps.

*import* this update unfortunately introduces a problem on same devices where the brightness is not reported back correctly when changed via de slider.

It's the ideal solution for home and small business surveillance!

What's New in Version 1.58

Your patience is rewarded! The update you're all be waiting for featuring audio (from camera to iDevice). Of course only available for the camera models that support it (like FI8908, FI8918)...

Audio comes as a free update and not as an in-app purchase. Sorry I've kept you waiting for so long, it was quite a mission to get it working besides all other projects I'm working on.

There is a known issue with audio enabled when, after trying to connect to a camera that is not reachable, the audio of the next camera selected will not play automatically. Workaround: switch audio off and on again.

Another known issue, not audio related, sometimes when rotating to fullscreen the screen is scrambled. Workaround: rotate back, go to mosaic view, rotate to landscape again, select the camera of your choice. I'm working on this problem.

All changes in this version

1) Audio
2) Fixed problem refresh rates for custom cameras not correctly stored
3) Optical zoom for FI8906(W)
4) A lot of under the hood changes to support audio (amongst other feature)
5) Controls have been reworked (some are on a different place now)
6) Fixed brightness/contrast problem introduced with the last update
7) Improved efficiency of sending camera commandos
8) Added support for FI8910(W) cameras

This is certainly not the last update! I've got a lot of ideas I want to work on.

Please rate my app after each update! If you were waiting for audio, please give my app that extra star! Thanks!

*** I READ ALL REVIEWS AND TAKE ALL FEATURE REQUESTS SERIOUSLY, PLEASE REVIEW AFTER EVERY UDPATE TO KEEP ME MOTIVATED ***

If you experience problems with audio please contact me instead of giving a bad review, thanks!

Customer Reviews

Ok (3 stars)
Good app the only thing it is missing for me is two way audio. Fix that and I'll gladly bump my review up to 5 stars

Really good app (4 stars)
I would give it a 5 but sometimes the setting button makes the app freeze other than that it's pretty awesome

DO NOT UPDATE (1 star)
I've been enjoying the app until I updated it last night.. It's simply crashing. I can't go back to the old version . It's now a dead app on my iPhone ..
