Note: This app uses a data stream that will connect to your Swann NVR/DVR via 3G/4G or WiFi. When using 3G/4G, the video from your NVR/DVR will likely be considered "downloads" by your phone service provider and will contribute to any download limit your phone data plan may have. If you exceed any plan limits you may incur additional usage charges. Consult with your mobile service provider regarding the use of a video streaming app and how it may affect your plan.

Pros and cons of SwannView Link app for iPhone and iPad

SwannView Link app good for

Good app for iPhone. But they dont have an assigned app for iPad which is a disappointment Also I have a camera that got very blurry and has a purple tint Ive had this system for almost a year itll be a year on June 26th

This app is much better than the other swann apps because of the setup options. This app brings you to a bar scanner built into the app so all you have to do is scan the barcode on your settings screen and it connects automatically. Just make sure you turn your wifi off on your phone when you set up the remote connection, mine never connects with the wifi turned on my iPhone.

Thank you for listening. So far everything that I have complained about has been fulfilled.

Awesome app. It would be better to be able to arrow instead of scroll. The area is sensitive. Thanks.

Some bad moments

The app crashes daily this time its been down for 3 days. Update info here app is down again 6/1/16

Terrible support ... Staff cant help fix issues remote ... Features dont always work.

Swann is terrible when it comes to supporting their products and the same can be said with this app. No files will playback as each time I hit the play button the app crashes. When trying to switch from Fluent to Clear the app crashes and closes. They have had these issues for a long time and have yet to provide a fix. Their support for Apple products in general is horrible.

I have the iPhone 6 Plus and this app worked great on my iPhone 5 but it now doesnt work on my iPhone 6 Plus

Why does the app stop working for long periods of time . Some times 24 hours

This app worked fine on my iPhone 5. I upgraded to the 6 and it will not work. Please fix!!!
