Works great with my Tapo 325 cameras and frigate 0.17. I had issues with an update breaking my camera view and thumbnails, but the developer was to respond and fix the issue!
★★★★☆Sean Cunningham· Feb 25, 2024
Is there any more development with this app? We really need a solid frigate app and this is a good way there. It's quite buggy on Android 14. Like others have said settings page just randomly appears when switching sections. Live view need to be a thing I understand it's more work to implement but without it a browser is better. Logs overlap each other and don't display right. I would pay for a full-featured bug-free app others would too!

Works great for me. Frigate won't play my events on the web so this is my only way currently.
★★☆☆☆Ian Chilvers· Oct 9, 2025
Nice app. Just a shame it doesn't support video playback on a recording camera to any point in time, only playback of captured events.
★☆☆☆☆Rob S· Jan 19, 2024
I just get "network request failed" but I can access the frigate server from my browser just fine.

App provides basic functionality, only shows sub stream with no option to view higher res, no ability to zoom into feeds. Shortcut to frigate dashboard on home works better and supports all the features.
