Comments on Defender App for Android

★★★★★ Doug Devin · Dec 18, 2020

I put the defender against the newest hot cam...tacta rev....the day time pics to your phone are about the same...nighttime pics are not.... Browning blows competition away...100 percent better on movement at night with very, very min. Blurr....trigger speed is so fast that it puts cars at 30 mph. In center of pic and min.blurr.can see the rims of car clear...the app is great ...I have to say the browning is one minute slower than the comp. Camera in sending pics but really .BROWNING

Ok heres why you're not hooking up to camera with phone. I had the same problem. When hooking into the camera, turn your DATA OFF and just have the Wi-Fi on. I cleared my storage in the app also though not sure I needed to. Hooked up great 8 out of 8 times. Now that I got it hooking up, I hung it in woods. Used live view to point camera where I wanted to. Love it. Haven't checked range yet but, did I say, I LOVE IT !!!

I use a Pixel 3 XL. I followed the video set-up instructions on the Browning website and it works fine. This is my second Browning Trail Cam and the first that I can access remotely, so I'm really enjoying that aspect of it. Easy-peasy to check the cam action from my phone! I knocked off a star for a few little niggling details like the slowness, lack of truly intuitive set-up/use, etc. NOTE: If you are running in "Battery Saver" mode, the app likely will not work until you turn that off.

The new update v1.1.0.2007111 no longer works on my Google Pixel 2 phone. Fails to connect to Wi-Fi. Everything was fine before this update. I only bought the camera because of the app facility... Browning, please sort this out asap!!

★☆☆☆☆ Chad Heitschmidt · Aug 29, 2020

Bluetooth connects fine, Wi-Fi will not, camera enters Wi-Fi mode, phone connects to camera Wi-Fi, app never connects, which means I can't get to pictures, live view, settings ...all the necessary stuff.

★☆☆☆☆ Ralph Eisentrager · Jul 28, 2021

Doesn't work after the latest update. Bluetooth connect (success) but switching to Wi-Fi can't connect to the app even though my setting show connected. App stays at switching....
