This app connected to my cameras better than the originally supplied software. Granted, there is limited ability to work with the cameras, but I can now easily connect to the cameras and take snap shots or record videos. Great feature about the cameras on to themselves is that you can set them up to send you an email when there is movement. This has to be done with the camera's manufactured software, but once I receive the email, I go to this application to do the recording as it is easier to work with. Still have some learning problems, but I'm pleased.
