Comments on Swann Security for Android

★★★★★ Peter Cook · Jul 20, 2026

Great home security system. Video image is outstanding even at night. Even though the cameras are powered by solar power they never go flat even in overcast weather.

★★★★☆ Richard Thesiger · Jul 9, 2026

We have Swann security cameras, and they are very good well recommended.

★★★★★ Nicole Polic · Jul 11, 2026

Clear footage and sound. The light on the cameras is quite powerful too. Really happy.

★★★★★ joshua varley · Jul 15, 2026

Easy to learn how to use can just plug in and go if u won't so much verity your nkt locked to the one setup u can keep adding awesome memory months worth if it's just at home customer service is awesome very knowledgeable just give it a go a set-up is not that much

★☆☆☆☆ craig t · Jul 6, 2026

Terrible. Have had these cameras for coming on 5 years, and they used to work great in the app, paid top dollar for hardwired professionally installed but progressively over the past few years the app just gets worse to the point I can barely watch the cameras or playback through the app. They barely pick up motion events and the app constantly tells me the cameras are offline even though they aren't, and I can watch them through the box and monitor. Do not bother with swann find another brand.

★★☆☆☆ drm1388 · Jun 19, 2026

By the time the cameras record anything or let you know something there, It's too late. What ever it is gone. Its very expensive too. Not worth the money

★☆☆☆☆ moo koid · Jul 25, 2026

Terrible app. Not fit for purpose. Response time is shockingly slow that if you ever need to view a camera in an emergency, it either fails to connect or takes an unacceptably long time to display live view. Even viewing saved clips is hit-and-miss. Fails to display 50% of the time. Come on Swann, sort this out, it's a waste of money!
