SwannView: Live Swann DVR viewing on your Android phone.
Note: This app uses a data stream that will connect to your DVR via 3G or WiFi. When using 3G, the video from your DVR will likely be considered "downloads" by your phone service provider and will contribute to any download limit your phone data plan may have. If you exceed any plan limits you may incur additional usage charges. Consult with your mobile service provider regarding the use of a video streaming app and how it may affect your plan.

The video stream is sent directly from your DVR to your phone without being routed through 3rd party servers.

|
[2012-11-25] A Google User: disappointed after upgrading to the new software none of the devices work. it doesnt work with any samsung phone, none of the iphone 4 or 5. now will have to rely on adt security system instead for remote access. :( |
|
[2012-11-13] A Google User: »»»My Daddys work««« I get see my love anytime with this app. I think its great! |
|
[2012-10-18] A Google User: Settings are useless The concept is great but execution is poor. None of three settings work while same settings in IP Cam Viewer work great... Using s2 and 4/8 channel Swann dvrs. |
|

[2012-09-27] A Google User: Works as needed This app does exactly what I need it to do. All I wanted was to be able to view my home video cams on my Nexus 7 and it fulfills that need. It is not fancy and comes with no real setup instructions but is simple enough to work through. The key for me to get this to work was to use my Mobile port. All the rest of the setup was the same as through the web. |
|
[2012-09-25] A Google User: Did the trick! I'm upgrading to the pro HD model because I have 9 cams but this worked pretty much flawlessly for me! |
|
[2012-09-16] A Google User: ads 440 swanneye all in one Doesnt work with it. Software and app to work on android. A lie? |
|
[2012-09-06] A Google User: Now broken The latest update has broken this app. It did work until I updated and now it only works with 1 camera not all 4 like it used to with the previous updates. PLEASE FIX! |
|
[2012-09-02] A Google User: I hate this app NOW The ago no longer remembers my camera settings. This is so frustrating and it just changed when they updated the software. |
|
[2012-08-31] A Google User: Top of the line Swann is excellent |
|
[2012-08-23] A Google User: Awesome! Best multi camera viewer out there! Spent lots of time looking at different viewers for my night owl dvr and this one the only one on android that could do it so well. Nice job. Now just need to be able to remotely record video. |
|
[2012-08-18] A Google User: Great app |
|
[2012-08-17] A Google User: Works OK nothing fantastic This app gets your Swann system available for Android devices. The caveat here is ensuring your settings are for Mobile and you enter your Mobile port number in the Port field (defaulted from your DVR). Also, be mindful of whether or not you are on your local network (private IP address) vs a non-local network ( public IP address). So enter either your public or private IP address in the Server field. There is also no need to append your Web port number to the IP address as you will enter the Mobile port number. Ensure you have a user name (same as on the DVR) and you should be good to go. |
|
[2012-08-16] A Google User: Ip Cam Viewer is the best choice App from manufacture does not work, I spent three hours just get no result, change to IP Cam View, only 30 seconds to get done. |
|
[2012-08-12] A Google User: Works, but drains battery Really out that difficult to configure and get to work. Requires some basic networking skills. Drains battery fast though. |
|
[2012-08-03] A Google User: Working excellent with DVR8-2600 on OG Droid, iPhone, Gtablet. Port forwarding on NETGEAR (don't recommend upnp). |
|
[2012-08-03] A Google User: k m r b u g s y 2 I like it works good!!! |
|
[2012-08-02] A Google User: Application snafus Make sure you reboot the swann device after changes for network settings to work. . . I learned that the hard way. . . Worked seamless, choose static ip and port forward in router. . . |
|
[2012-07-21] A Google User: Poor Does not work with Swann DVR 4 channel. No usable error messages. Poor programming. Spoke to Swann support. Not able to make it work. |
|
[2012-07-20] A Google User: Galaxy Nexus - jelly bean. Working in about 30 seconds I got this working in about 30 secs. Enter your external IP as the sever address and 18004 port for mobile, username and PW u setup and bingo. Double press the large squares to add the camera you want. Can watch 4 cams at the same time. If u need help and in London I can help. |
|
[2012-07-20] A Google User: Awesome |
|
[2012-07-20] A Google User: Works fine Works fine |
|
[2012-07-18] A Google User: Good |
|
[2012-07-17] A Google User: Doesn't work This is an update for the app I already use and when I allow it to update it won't connect with my dvr. I reinstall the old version and it works fine. My problem is it keeps notifying me that there is an update available. How can I get it to stop? |
|
[2012-07-08] A Google User: G2g Works perfect. Well worth the money. |
|
[2012-07-07] A Google User: Swann watching camera system away from sit Paid itself off with one caught theft by a "close friend" and he was called in from from the work field and terminated immediately! Systems are more effect to u so you can watch your employees or delivery. People while being stuck in an office chair. |
|
[2012-07-04] A Google User: Poor Did not work |
|
[2012-07-04] A Google User: Doesn't work on MyTouch 4G |
|
[2012-06-27] A Google User: Very good Good app works well. Do like being able to use a dynamic dns address rather than manually entering ip address. Really like being able to view just one camera full screen by double tapping one of the four currently viewable. |
|
[2012-06-24] A Google User: Noob Works on my Samsung Note GTN7000B. Set up video needs updating as it was different and I had to guess my network set up a little. Have only tested at home on my local network yet to try over the internet. DVR4-2600 pro 4 camera system. |
|
[2012-06-19] A Google User: Can't get it to work and no one replies to support email |
|
[2012-06-08] A Google User: Not working No use |
|
[2012-06-06] A Google User: SUCKS DOES NOT WORK! |
|
[2012-06-06] A Google User: Very useful Best to keep an eye on things for sure... |
|
[2012-05-31] A Google User: Disappointed Very disappointing app, you would think they might have the best app, continually unable to connect, but the app that I use will be able to connect immediately. Come on update and upgrade this app. |
|
[2012-05-21] A Google User: Did work.... But now it connects to server, but no response. Downloaded IP camera viewer basic and that works fine. |
|
[2012-05-17] A Google User: Cant use this on 3G only wifi For some reason i cant see anything if im on 3g on the phone but if if i go on wifi its more than perfect...please fix or help and ill give full 5 and recommend!!!!! |
|
[2012-05-10] A Google User: Fix please Can not see camera 5 onwards.iPhone work but not android. |
|
[2012-05-09] A Google User: Works ok No problem.works as it suppose to for my iPad,itouch and android phone. |
|
[2012-05-07] A Google User: Nice but little buggy. App sometimes makes your unit freeze when you click to fast from cam to cam. Maybe a connection bug. You then have to hard reset your unit. Otherwise handy, hopefully they will fix this. |
|
[2012-05-01] A Google User: Great for the money Best $500 system to watch your cameras. Ready and user friendly. |
|
[2012-04-22] A Google User: Swann View Top |
|
[2012-04-19] A Google User: ANNA works GREAT! |
|
[2012-04-18] A Google User: Disappointed Constantly get connection errors. Started off good mow it's horrible. |
|
[2012-04-15] A Google User: Great app but... Not working on asus transformer prime. Connection okay, but no picture: 0( |
|
[2012-04-05] A Google User: Good. I think this is a good app. Took some setting up though. For those of you having problems, go to the swann website, there are step by step instructions. |
|
[2012-03-31] A Google User: Terrible Cannot connect with my razr maxx |
|
[2012-03-28] A Google User: Works well. Serves its purpose. The appearance is nice as well. If your having troubles connecting make sure the DVR is setup to accept 3g connections and that the right ports on your router are open. I found them in my dvr's manual. |
|
[2012-03-27] A Google User: Amazing Swann has amazing customer service. They got me set up to view my cameras via cell phone and through my work PC. This app works great!!! |
|
[2012-03-22] A Google User: expected a lil' too much. Works great but I thought I can view playback mode on my phone same way I did on my laptop. Would be great if I can view some recent files on my smart phone. |
|
[2012-03-20] A Google User: Doesn't work on EVO 4G. Doesn't connect with Port 18004, connects with Port 9000 but no pictures. Robert Chou's IP Cam Viewer works fine, as usual... |
|
[2012-03-20] A Google User: Not working on ICS Used to work well on Gingerbread, but now does not work on Ice Cream Sandwich (on HTC Vivid, ICS 4.0.3) |
|
[2012-03-09] A Google User: Some hints 4 U Find your systems ip address by typing "what is my ip address" in google on a computer also tied to the network. The port is 18004. If you did not assign a user name/pword, the default is admin and 123456. Make sure your phone is not on the same wifi as the cameras, or you will need to create a second profile with the 192.168.x.x address of the DVR. |
|
[2012-03-08] A Google User: Needs EXIT button Works. on that nook color... But nook door does NOT have a BACK button - so no saving of settings, no ending of data stream... Please add an exit button. thank you |
|
[2012-03-05] A Google User: Not very good Giving it 1 star because it only shows what's currently playing and will not allow to review past recordings. Unless you are constantly looking at it you can't see what occurred prior or what triggered an alarm. It also drains the phone battery very fast |
|
[2012-03-03] A Google User: Swannview Works perfectly but video quality not as good as ip cam view. |
|
[2012-03-03] A Google User: Great app and customer service. Called Swann Customer Service and they worked with us to configure back to excellent! |
|
[2012-02-29] A Google User: Works great Looks like they removed the ads... An app you pay $500+ to use with shouldn't have ads. It works great. Fast frame rate, work everytime, good interface too. A little tricky to setup, hence some people having problems. You got to close the app properly in order to save changes. It would be awesome if there was access to recordings. |
|
[2012-02-28] A Google User: Ads are you kidding me? I buy your product and now I have to watch ads to use the app. I will never buy your product again until no ads on app. |
|
[2012-02-28] A Google User: Great great great! Fantastic on DROID Razr |
|
[2012-02-17] A Google User: Myhome :) |
|
[2012-02-10] A Google User: Not bad with my Samsung Galaxy II S Had problem in the past, not because of swann, because of my dns problem. i try other app but the speed on this app is the fastest. |
|
[2012-02-02] A Google User: Works Great Once set up, it just logs on to the box and goes - better than one could expect. |
|
[2012-01-27] A Google User: Couldn't get it to work I spent a couple of hours trying to get this app to work with a Swann DVR400-1200 unit. Would connect but no pictures visible. Emailed the support address mentioned in the help window but never got a response. I saw mention of the IP Cam Viewer application in one of the other reviews and tried that instead - was up and working in less than five minutes. Would much preferred to have stuck with manufacturers app but just couldn't get it to work. |
|
[2012-01-26] A Google User: Please update act exactly how iPhone app works I have 8 cameras, please make it so I can view 4 cameras (which works now) and then view the other 4 camera with one button like the ipod app. Also anytime soon for playback on phone app? |
|
[2012-01-21] A Google User: User This app doesn't work. Have to use a third party android app. Also never got the email notification. Waste of 1500 bucks. |
|
[2012-01-20] A Google User: Needs better guides I've set up so many of their 8 camera systems its second nature to me. If your having issues with this app or your system maybe you should call someone to help |
|
[2012-01-17] A Google User: Update won't work. Please fix. Sucks paying $500 for a security system I can't monitor. Stupid update! |
|
[2012-01-06] A Google User: Terrible Way too buggy. They need to sort this out and quick. I downloaded ip cam viewer and have had no problems...why cant swann do the same? |
|
[2012-01-05] A Google User: Bad App After struggling for hours on different tablets and phones with inconsistent results, I tried Robert Chou's I P Camera viewer. Much better picture and it works, consistently unlike this app! |
|
[2012-01-04] A Google User: Sad Constant connection fail. Sad because I own there system, so I am stuck with there buggy app and its crappy updates :( Used to be able to continuously view the cameras but not after the update. |
|
[2011-12-30] A Google User: Mobile view Back online turns out internet provider blocked app but thanks to swann support im able to view from my Phone again!!! |
|
[2011-12-30] A Google User: Ads after paying £400 worth of equipments? I don't agree with ads in the app as most people here paid hundreds already for equipments. Please remove it. |
|
[2011-12-28] A Google User: Stil not wkng after months This is bs. Dvr4 2550 is pos. It has been crap since dy 1. Wnt keep pw set. Lck u out. Wnt conect 2 mob or web regularly.

Just 1 more comp takng us 4 a ride.thx alot. |
|
[2011-12-26] A Google User: Not as good as IP Cam Viewer by Robert Chow This app works, but I found it had lots of connection failures. IP Cam Viewer was easier to set up, more reliable, better UI, no errors, has home screen widgets much clearer picture. I would only continue to use this app if the Dev fixed the connection errors and also added the ability to change settings on my DVR such as email, playback, record etc. |
|
[2011-12-19] A Google User: Ever since the updated it had stopped working. |
|
[2011-12-11] A Google User: Works good. Would give 5 if wifi was not the only connection. |
|
[2011-11-29] A Google User: Works great.. new camera views are fast except when more than 1 phone connects at one time. Tends to overload the system and reboots main dvr. |
|
[2011-11-21] A Google User: Abc Great program |
|
[2011-11-19] A Google User: Nice Works great with my swann system. Any future plans? Would love mobile remote playback. Easy ui,quick loading, good job devs. |
|
[2011-11-11] A Google User: Excellent Works very good with swann dvr galaxy s2 |
|
[2011-11-11] A Google User: Good job Works Great thanks |
|
[2011-11-11] A Google User: Piece of garbage doesn't work for crap, not even for the technically proficient, trained network engineer. Trash! Try again, and try harder next time! |
|
[2011-11-11] A Google User: Cool Does exactly what it says on the tin. Perfect for keeping an eye on our staff while we are away |
|
[2011-11-08] A Google User: Yaso Previous app was working better than current app. Please try to fix as soon as possible. |
|
[2011-11-05] A Google User: Junk WTF. What seems to be the issue here. Tried everything, manual or website no help. Wont connect on my droid x |
|
[2011-11-05] A Google User: Vzw droid 3 Works good, easy to connect, but drives me crazy as it won't remember the camera setup occasionally. I run it on wifi at home and 3g elsewhere. |
|
[2011-11-05] A Google User: It doesn't work well, previous app worked perfect this one is stubborn ie crappy. What a dissapointment how do these tech guys do it. I thought they w |
|
[2011-11-05] A Google User: Why choose cameras every time? The app is better, but why will it not store the cameras? Very annoying and time consuming to use now. |
|
[2011-11-02] A Google User: Connection issues down to ISP Update to my previous review: After much digging I discovered my connection issues were down to my ISP (O2 Ireland). They said "O2 blocks all device to device communication on consumer APNs (eg open.internet etc)." Since both my home and mobile broadband are by O2, the app will never work for me. Friends on other mobile networks had no problems viewing the stream on their smartphones with Swannview when I gave them the settings. Thanks also to the tech support guys in Maplins for their help on this one. |
|
[2011-10-31] A Google User: Won't connect For whatever reason, this app will not connect to my security system. I can connect via IE but neither the Android or Apple OS mobile app works. |
|
[2011-10-31] A Google User: READ THIS FOR CONNECTION ISSUES! Could not connect to cameras after upgrading. I messed with the settings and figured out that you can only have ONE item per DVR in your device list. |
|
[2011-10-30] A Google User: Needs more instructions Server: enter your external ip address Port: default of 18004 Username: as per mobile login on dvr unit Password: as above Max Ch: amount of cameras |
|
[2011-10-27] A Google User: Awesome Great app. Love it! |
|
[2011-10-27] A Google User: Swann Can not connect unless im using wifi |
