SAFE by Swann

I downloaded version 1.11.1 yesterday. Everything seemed fine at first. Then, I switched to “Home” mode which I have set to disarm all of my cameras except for one. I worked in my yard after that and the cameras were disarmed as they should be. Then, when I was done working I switched modes back to “Away” so that all my cameras would be armed again. And this is where we have a problem. Even though the app says My system is in “Away” mode and that all of my cameras are armed, only the one camera is actually armed. The other cameras are stuck in disarmed mode amd I cant get them to arm again. So , basically version 1.11.1 just turned three cameras into expensive wall decorations. Any suggestions on how to fix the latest gaffe from Swann?

This is by far the best battery camera on the market today. The app is great and very easy to use. Would love it if they had the ability to have multiple cameras on a single cloud storage plan. Would also like 60 days of storage. The camera could wake up a little faster but I guess that might hurt the battery life which I think is pretty good right now. The new app is much better. Overall I really think the camera is a winner.

I have both type of outdoor cameras and the bullet type is much better than the Arlo ripoff battery design. When it comes to the app, the app looks ok but wish it had more camera settings and robots that allow you to tigger other camera(s) when event triggered. I’ve found recording is spotty and records most events within range but will totally miss others even set at highest sensitivity. The worst part is trying to get app to view cameras, you will need to reboot app consistently and it will eventually work. This seems to be an app issue. It’s workable but if you are in a rush to view camera, good luck! When you top that with it missing events all together, it’s very frustrating. I will say though overall, especially when compared to Arlo pro systems, for which I have had, the video quality, price, trigger sensitivity is far better. If Swann would work on app and give us more options I would give it five stars.
