APP IS EXTREMELY RESTRICTIVE
The camera vendor has been good to this point. Sent notice of willingness to assist in any way possible to get the product installed and working. Based on that and the reviews in AMAZON it is -probably a good product. HOWEVER, anyone who reads this USER AGREEMENT for the CLOUDEDGE APP must be stunned. I have written million(s) $ contracts with less restrictive contents than CLOUDEDGE. I have sent an email and awaiting reply. In the mean time, READ THE USER AGREEMENT VERY CLOSELY.
UPDATE 7/9/2019-----Have had several email exchanges with the camera vendor. They are requesting that I upgrade the rating, since the software is not theirs. I have sent, this AM, a sample EULA for them to consider with CLOUDEDGE. Since the camera, without the APP, is not functional and NO OTHER APP IS AVAILABLE FOR THIS CAMERA, I cannot in good conscience change the OVERALL RATING above a one star.
UPDATE 7/10/2019----I have requested and Amazon has allowed that this camera product be returned. My request is not a rejection of the camera, but of the software required to operate it. Specifically, the CLOUDEDGE END USER AGREEMENT. 1) Under the decision of CLOUDEDGE ALONE, having determined you to be in violation of the agreement they can/will appropriate ALL YOUR PERSONAL DATA; 2) SIGNING THE AGREEMENT OBLIGATES YOU TO OBEY THE LAWS OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA. SWEARING ALLEGIANCE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY IS TANTAMOUNT TO REJECTING YOU USA CITIZENSHIP. There are more objectionable items in the EULA, but these two are illustrative of the unacceptable terms included. (It would be helpful if some other customers would comment about their view of the APP EULA.)
Please understand this is not denigrating to the AOMEISI camera performance, it is a comment on AOMEISI'S choice of a vendor to provide operable interface to use their camera. Should you be willing to "sign" the CLOUDEDGE agreement there is ample testimony on this web site supporting the performance of this camera.
AUGUST 17, 2022 The Hiseeu Company has, for almost three years, contacted me again and again to change and/or delete the above comments. The latest contact came email 8/16/2022. My comments do not express any evaluation of the camera performance but is about the APP required to USE the camera. Every comment of the above review remains applicable. If you are purchasing this camera and using the APP provided in 2019 you are making a "possibly" very bad decision. It is my wish that Hiseeu discontinue "bothering" me with these requests. I have no interest in the their products.
