Description

This app is a CLIENT for the Blue Iris Windows PC software. In order to make use of this app, you must have Blue Iris version 6 installed and running on a Windows PC or VM.

Key features include: - Manage multiple Blue Iris installations - Geofencing: set status, send alerts, and more in response to device location * - Control the shield icon, schedule and profile selection - Receive iOS push notification alerts when a Blue Iris camera is triggered or there is a critical status message - Fast H.264 streaming - Control PTZ, IR and more for any camera that’s also controllable at the Blue Iris PC - Listen to and talk to any camera that’s also supported at the Blue Iris PC - Navigate cameras by tapping and swiping - Review recordings as stored on the Blue Iris PC, up to 64x speed - Download recorded video from the Blue Iris PC to the iOS device - Selectively delete recordings from the Blue Iris PC - Broadcast live video from the iOS device directly into a Blue Iris PC camera window - Remote control DIO output signals on compatible devices - Baby monitor functionality: continue to listen to audio with app closed or device in standby ** * Note that continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life. ** Note that continued use of audio streaming running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Glitchy update
The latest update no longer supports the original version of the server for playing back surveillance videos. They also didn’t fix the bug where most of the cameras in the main view are intermittently not showing up. Perhaps it works with the newest version of server, but the original version which supposed to still work, is no longer supported. Very disappointing.

Works?
Latest update fixed the issues, but rating 3 for now because the app was completely unusable for like a month prior to the fix.

Good app. Bad update
With the most recent update- video is no longer playing smooth. It like skips randomly. Overall blue iris is great though (v4). I know they want you to update to version 5- but everything I read seems to refer to problems with updates. As someone who already has a reverse proxy with https running- I don’t see any major new benefits that would be worth the risk yet…

Not sure what happened with the update, but for about a week now when i access the cameras on my phone camera not loading or takes for ever to load. Never had this problem before. I am on the last Bi desktop version and iphone 16 pro max plus version

New color scheme is hard on the eyes
Overall, the product has been pretty good for me over 5 or so years but the new color scheme in the most recent version is atrocious and difficult for old eyes. I would love a way to go back to the previous colors.

Flaky
When it works it’s great but when it doesn’t it’s an all day job to get it back online. So far it’s been off for two months and I can’t get it to work so it’s junk.

Must Have App
If you run Blue Iris desktop this is a no brainier purchase. I have been using it since the initial release and the developer remains dedicated to customer satisfaction. I use this app daily and It has become the primary app for viewing my IP cameras. You will not be disappointed! NOTE: You do have to run Blue Iris desktop on your PC in order to use this app.

Doesn't work
This won't connect with my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I'm not trying to port forward. Just a simple connect fails. BI customer service is no help Owen

Feels like someone’s side project
The app is mostly useable with some bugs, but it just feels outdated or neglected. I paid for the App expecting a better experience than the web UI and the only advantage for me is push notifications in the App, when they work. I mostly use the web UI with different notifications now and regret buying the App.

Developer won’t fix it
Had an issue with this having almost 100gigs of data. Emailed developer. Ya it’s a know issue. Almost two years later no fix. Poor apps and support. App is 10 years old and outdated.

App does not connect but browser does
connect on app never works endless retry but connection works fine on browser fix your app!

Video saved to iOS no longer working
Great app to monitor Blue Iris installations and formerly a perfect app. However with recent versions, and BI 5.x, I can longer save camera video clips to iOS cameras roll - this used to work without issue on BI 4.x so I deducted 2 stars. Two other suggestions: 1) Please allow app to initiate iOS VPN connection. 2) Please port to AppleTV - I would gladly pay for an AppleTV version of this app. Thanks for a great app!

Antiquated UI but gets the job done
The UI is antiquated and the app could use a refresh (though supposedly this is coming soon with BI 6?), but the app is reliable and gets the job done. I’ve found it to be very stable and am able to key in on cameras quickly when I receive an alert. Full disclosure, I use HA to send alerts to my devices and use the app solely for monitoring (not alerts) - easier when you have a lot of devices that you want alerts sent to to but only want to pay for the app on one or two devices

Needs a serious update
I’ll say it’s a good app. But it needs to be updated. This is a surveillance app and it’s hard to scrub through footage. Its main purpose should be easily look through camera feeds and history. It needs a complete redesign.

App is garbage
Can connect to server no issue can’t see any cameras. Even tried going through zero tier. No cameras.

New version is horrible
Long time user of Blue Iris, it’s always been a great program. This app this is horrible. Moved the controls around for zero reason, doesn’t flow well at all. Change the UI back to what worked, leave the back end stuff there, but fix the look and feel. It’s horrible now.

Pretty good so far
Running with BI app on an iPhone 15 and BI on an i7 desktop to view 3 IP cameras at 20 fps and relatively high resolution. Somewhat complicated for beginners. Wish I knew how to change the push notification sound. Also curious about needing to pay the yearly update charge for BI.

unoptimized ancient app
Blueiris has consumer market cornered and it shows - non responsive UI and cant load 4k video in app. the entire ui feels 10 years old. garbage app and im looking forward to the competition.

Why charge for the app???
I like the system, but if we’re already paying for the software, why must each user pay another $9 for the app? Feels like a bit of a money grab. Take a note from UniFi - their app is free.

Keeps disconnecting from webserver
Been using it for 2 days now. Get it set up and works fine, in about an hour or so, it cant connect. Wifi and cellular service is strong. Have to jump thru the hoops of adding a new server. It then works again for an hour or so then disconnects again. Right now…. Not worth the $9.99
★★★★★
Push notifications require subscription
Push notifications only work if you have purchased the desktop app AND have an extended support subscription.

The Ideal Match for Blue Iris Enthusiasts!
Blue Iris has been an absolute game-changer in surveillance! Needless to say this app’s design makes monitoring my property simple, yet offering crystal clear live feeds directly to my phone and iPad. The customization options in this app are user-friendly, allowing me to finangle the settings exactly how I want. Definitely deserves a five-star rating!

Not worth the price
App doesn’t follow general iOS design guidelines, often doesn’t select correct clip and it costs too much money for what my toddler can do better with.
