W Box VMS1 for Negative User Reviews

CrashesCan’t get playback to work. Crashes Live preview selecting cameras crashes..Version: 3.2.2

Don’t UpgradeLatest version of the app just shows a grey screen with trailing ghost images. Do not upgrade to this version.Version: 3.3.0

Bug reportIn the ios app i cannot review any video recorded in the last 12 hrs. I have to go to the dvr which defeats the purpose Highly regret making the purchase for this..Version: 3.6.1

JunkThis app is junk. Remote access doesn’t work. Even in the home access is spotty at best..Version: 3.6.1

Couldn’t playback on app IOS 16+One of the worst mobile phone apps I’ve used. Their standard VMS app was simple and flawless . With all the negative reviews , tech support isn’t aware of any issues , despite all 1 star reviews..Version: 3.6.4

Needs updatingSince apple updated to iOS 14 the app doesn’t work from mobile access. Can as be updated ?.Version: 3.6.1

App needs a major overhaulI recently upgraded my nvr & cameras. I used the other (older?) VMS app. I never had an issue. It worked great, never crashed, etc... This app crashes and LAGS! I’ve only had this app for a few days, I’ll give it a little bit of time. If nothing improves, I’m going to see if there is a different app I can use with my camera brand. Please fix this app!.Version: 3.6.1

Can’t connect via iPhone X in wanCan’t connect via iPhone X in wan.Version: 3.3.0

AwfulJust awful. Tons of alerts but can never play them back. Works intermittently..Version: 3.4.0

So Slow!It takes minutes before W Box loads. It’s not my phone nor internet connection. My other DVR loads instantly from my phone..Version: 3.6.1

WBox products are a total waste of time & moneyWbox products are the ultimate worst dvr systems. I bought 2 for my 2 businesses. They have too many issues on the iPhone app & on the desktop program I use windows. The program constantly freezing windows. I can’t even force it to end w the task manger. I have to hard reboot it. It happens so often, it’s started to corrupt my windows files. On the iPhone app, the app is freezing the second I open it & totally is not functional. I have the latest update. Final word stay away from WBox products. Update on 1-22-2020 I called technical support. The rep said the app works fine on his iPhone. I should contact Apple to make it work on my iPhone. Where is the developer of this app? The was totally rude at the end as it’s not their problem. Final word is Do Not Buy or Use WBox Products. !!.Version: 3.6.1

Live views freeze!And I know I’m not the only one with this issue! Previous version was working well for me on iPhone, the mid August update is causing live views to freeze within seconds of opening the channels. Please fix this!.Version: 3.3.0

Grey screens no pictureSince the update to the latest version the picture goes off / grey and does not show the picture. I have another phone running the old version of the app and it works fine, please fix this bug.Version: 3.3.0

Not fit for purpose. Unstable.Crashes constantly. No way to edit camera configuration after it has been added. iPhone 8+ IOS 11.4.1. Link to support goes to general website. Newest update is much worse than prior version. Besides bugs, much slower response then before..Version: 3.3.0

Useless appWill not playback Very frustrating.Version: 3.6.1

UpdateWhen will there be an update to the app? Agree with previous reviews, app needs a lot of work. All my other apps have updated regularly, is there anyone even paying attention to these comments?.Version: 3.4.0

W Box not worth the investmentW Box had a great first generation product then they dropped the iPhone app support and came out with this app that is slow, cumbersome and worthless. Buy HIK Vision!!.Version: 3.4.0

I’m a Pro and Say No No No!!!!I’m professional security camera installer and this has to be one of worst apps I have ever used. Landscape mode does not work it’s horrible ,wrong!. Having to select device every time to see cameras wrong! Huge lag time horrible wrong!! I will not sell another W box camera system until this app is updated PERIOD!!!!.Version: 3.4.0

Trash.The app has so many bugs. I hope they actually put an effort into fixing them and updating this app. It would really be worth it.Version: 3.4.0

Worthless appAbsolutely worthless app; doesn’t support landscape mode, unable to export saved videos. What’s the point?.Version: 3.4.0

Why??!??When you add a device the app alway add them as IPC devices. It doesn't let you select the type of device while you are adding them. So after adding the device you have to edit the parameters to be able to see the "Device type" option. But when you change the device to NVR or DVR and press save, IT DOESN'T SAVE IT!!! keep the devices always as IPC making impossible to check your camera. This is RIDICULOUS!.Version: 3.2.1

AppallingI’d like to give this app no stars, can’t remember a time it actually worked properly, waste of time..Version: 3.4.0

PlaybackCan’t get any playback through the app, which is very disappointing!! Can see live images no problem but to see any playback from a specific time and date is impossible I’m running the app on IOS PLEASE FIX!!!!!!!.Version: 3.6.1

Don’t buyRemote login is impossible only working occasionally, I have to dump the app and switch the box on and off. I also have a ring device and it’s 10 times the device. Total waste of money.Version: 3.6.1

Terrible app ... bad productThe app doesn’t work properly and is immensely frustrating.Version: 3.6.1

Back to the drawing boardHistorically I don’t leave negative responses or replies, but this app. OMG..... I’ve used many apps. Honestly, this app needs to be scrapped. You waste more time trying to remote view than you actually get to view. If you’re lucky and get an image it crashes within a minute. You leave the app with a sunken feeling every time you attempt to use it. My recommendation: look at other apps that work. Then take this app back to the drawing board. Time is your most valuable asset. After attempting to use this app you feel like you actually lost time..Version: 3.4.0

Doesnt workCannot connect to cameras. Same problem as other people, app will not save settings. Makes very expensive camera system useless..Version: 3.2.2

App and system are terribleApp keeps freezing and I cannot launch configuration management. System will not sync with NTP server and when it reboots it goes back to the beginning of time. I need to keep reseating cables for the POE to power a couple of cameras. Don’t waste your money..Version: 3.6.1

ShockingI have a customer breathing down my neck wondering why this app isn’t working! It was fine before the update! Technical support in the UK is non existent, wouldn’t use this crap again!.Version: 3.4.0

Still doesn’t workExpensive system worthless, cannot view cameras on app!.Version: 3.4.0

DisappointedI really wish you would invest some money in the app and fix the issues of playback, live view lag/freeze and many other issues. I can’t use myself let alone sell to anyone..Version: 3.6.1

Not impressedCrashes all the time. Just watching the cameras and it will close. The names kind of unprofessional as well..Version: 3.2.1

Antiquated, very limitingNot user friendly at all. Playback is near impossible. Delays like 10 seconds to go to the time and day you select if it goes there at all. Don’t try to go further back or forward. Will freeze. No matter how fast your network, live delay is 2 minutes..Version: 3.6.1
