lippavisual Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Download Bluestacks (android emulator), go to the play store and download android app. This also works remotely too, if you have 4sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lippavisual Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 No new version. It was flash based GUI, which is basically dead now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msgreenf Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 yup - it works great! i just started to use it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukas.polivka Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Even Composer Express works in it. And Intercom Anywhere - somewhat (I think I could not get the camera in my laptop working with it, but I could see the other side, e.g. DS2 door station; can't remember if there was any issue with audio.) I use that to show all the apps during our trainings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTO Posted May 31, 2019 Author Share Posted May 31, 2019 I don’t use android unfortunately other than the few times I tried a Samsung note but ended up going back to iPhone. And I find majority of things just easier to do on a Mac than PC. But that’s why I was looking for update for the Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't thought of that, but it will be interesting to see if Apple opens up more non-Apple iOS apps on Mac. My bet is that it's Apple and they won't, but I'd like to be wrong. And I agree...I have noticed that connecting on the iOS app, even on my local network, seems slower with OS 3 than on OS 2. After the first time I opened the app in a day, re-connecting was almost instantaneous on OS 2. Oh well, I'm sure it's something that will improve with future updates and a very small price to pay for the much improved UI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amr Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Any solution that is based on IOS or Android is again a pure crap as the app always crashing specially with Cam Feeds, in IOS no thumbs and takes ages to load, some times crashes, in Android it a bit better thumbs are visible and its fast but clicking on any cam will crash the application, pure crap and give you an idea how C4 is not gather their act and fix their issues before launching 3.0...

msgreenf Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I think the thing to look at is the camera drivers. What camera drivers are you using? Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
