MyCam View Hack 2.1.25 + Redeem Codes

The cameras themselves are pretty nice but you better hope you have A1 wifi. I’m going to be honest like I said, if something were to have been happening at my house I’m not going to say they would for sure catch whatever happened on video. Somebody fell right in front of where it would see in my front yard and it showed nothing. But it will show tiny leaves flying around or bugs. It takes unnecessary videos 24/7, sometimes audio doesn’t work, the app doesn’t show the events half the time, and overall I just figured I’d get a little better quality with what I paid even going as far as having to buy different SD cards for it. Maybe try to patch the app ? When you’re away from home and have a newer iPhone it’s a bit scary that it takes as long as it does to let me see my house and like I said it doesn’t record the things it need to

System came with 2 wireless cameras. I plugged them into power and then connected the receiver to the router using supplied cables. Plugged the power to the receiver and video showed up on the monitor. It automatically paired up the cameras. I was impressed. Turned the receiver on and off again per instructions and I was connected to the internet. Downloaded the app and I could see the cameras, as it automatically found my receiver. Used the app away from my home network and it worked fine. Back to Harbor Freight for two more cameras to make the maximum of 4 wireless cameras. To add the third and fourth cameras, I had to go to the menu option to pair them to the receiver. Selected pair and push the pair button on the back of the camera after a message to do so appeared on the screen, and presto I could see 4 cameras on the monitor. Did not come with a memory card, so to Walmart I went. Installing the SD card allows recording of a camera. Set up to record when motion was detected on the cameras. Works perfectly. I can also access the recordings from my IPhone. Was built by RDI Technologies in China, so support may be limited. However, Harbor Freight does sell extended warranties if you need extra peace of mind.

The security cameras are great and I have had no problems with them. I just wish they had come in a 4 pack instead of 2. My internet is slow so I bought a booster to put with my monitor and it works wireless great. I show up on my phone just fine. The only problem is it will not alert me on my phone when it starts to record. That would be a great feature as there have been many times I would have liked to contact the person at my house when they were there but didn’t know until I get home. I will have to buy a second set to put at the front of my house as many delivery people have discovered the cameras at the back of the house so the park in a blind spot where I have no window.

At first the camera’s were decent. A little slow but nothing worry some. Now after one year one camera has died and our other camera will not load on the app anymore.. the app just loads and loads and loads. Then it will say “finished playing video” of the recordings when it didn’t even load it in the first place. Honestly these cameras were trash for the amount I paid for them. DO NOT RECOMMEND unless you just want them for something to look at on the monitor that comes with it… Anything that has to do with internet features hardly work.

Had this app and cameras for 3 years. I have 2 systems working at 2 different locations with 4 cameras each. The app allows me to monitor both systems easily. I have high speed internet at both locations and I have no issues. All of my cameras are outside even far from the base and still work well. I don’t see how you can find a cheaper more reliable system. To get this type of coverage wireless for 8 cameras and then installed would cost well over 2k. I’m in for about 1/4 of that. And professional systems are not any better. I’ve seen pros show up with the same equipment and charge 4x the price.

I bought mine 3 - 4 years ago still going strong - the cameras are awesome and they pair up immediately. While working out of town I could see my property and house perfectly, as well as hearing perfect audio from whichever camera I tapped on - only thing I wish was different is there is no audio when watching recorded content on my iPhone - the recordings have audio but only when you remove the SD card from the monitor and put it into a computer or some other device that reads SD cards but while viewing recorded video on mobile device the audio isn’t included with the video

Worked great for 7 months and then it stopped allowing to view recorded videos from my ipad and it is hit or miss on motion detection.
***update***
I e-mailed Mike Yuan in tech support at the MyCam view App. and after a few e-mails, he figured out what was wrong (I hope). After I had turned the monitor off/on, rebooted my wifi, reloaded the App, got a new memory card it still would not let me access recorded videos from my mobile devices. Turns out we had a power outage and the time on the monitor was way off, Mike told me to reset the time to correct time and timezone and now it works again! Thanks Mike!

Update: Got in touch with app company and they were more than helpful troubleshooting back and forth via email. Turns out the monitor wasn’t talking correctly with the server. The fix... turn the monitor off then back on!!

Just like everyone else said, worked fine then notifications just stopped. All settings still set to allow notifications from this app. Notifications are the most important part of the entire camera system.

This app and the option to pair to your smart phone or iPad etc are GARBAGE! Tech-savvy user but Mickey Mouse cameras and app. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY WITH THIS PRODUCT! Will not pair after multiple attempts. Harbor Freight has NO tech support for any wireless products. No management on staff AND states they are made “overseas and they have no way of reaching the manufacturer”. All they could offer was the manual instructions which do not help as we followed them correctly which is why the call was placed initially.
False advertising, sub par product. There’s an old saying, “you get what you pay for”
Save your money for a real security camera system as this one is JUNK! Lesson learned.
Do not shop at Harbor Freight unless your ok with junk products.

I have had my cobra system for almost 2 years then I had the same problems as most of the other reviews. Cannot see recordings on my phone. Reboot router, uninstalled and reinstalled my cam view app. Nothing working. I finally solved the problem.”user error “. Make sure the bottom right corner has red man running visible on monitor. It is the indicator for motion detect. On monitor the 1st button on top left of monitor turns motion on and off. Will be buying 2 more wireless cameras now.
