@reolinkshayla my thoughts on this new version of the app for Android is:

REOLINK DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING!!!!

because if they did then app wouldn't be in Landscape when viewing live view & Playback which cant get out of Landscape view on my tablet even when i have !my tablet locked on portrait. I even turned the portrait lock off so my screen automatically changes witch still doesn't get out of landscape for live view & Playback. now cant send the preinstalled voice messages. also NOT EVERYONE LIKES OR WANTS LANDSCAPE VIEW!!!!

removed this app from playstore and add older version before this version NOW!!

@reolinkshayla what are my expectations for Reolink?

start supporting current device's and keep the promise's that were made. like ifttt (in 2018 was said ifttt would be supported in 2019 yet here we are in 2024 and still no damn ifttt!!!), separate notifications categories with separate notification sounds (again was promised yet never delivered) i can mention more but i think you already know the rest. stop saying you'll be supporting whatever when in reality you have no plans on actuality delivering on things you say you'll deliver its just false promising to gain customers and i think we all have cought on to your dirty ugly tactics.

@adrian-m_363708397707411 they pick wrong beta testers who we clearly see have NO clue what beta testing means. I've been an alpha as well as beta tester for Microsoft and I know how to beta test.

@tonyht lol nope and probably never will as reolink doesn't know what they are doing. their app updates prove this.

@matthew_635366143033465 just take a look at ifttt being promised and not delivered as your answer.

@ReolinkShayla I second what @joseph_1979 said.

@myreolink_533265780207845 right now save your money! you will miss most if not all doorbell presses (unless you are near your chime) also no call screen with option to answer or decline when someone rings doorbell. no actual logs that when preased x notification it would present you with video clip playing at time of notification. it actually isn't a video doorbell and tbh they should stop selling it and recall it or refund everyone all their money back they paid for it.

@joseph_1979 shouldn't need a subscription. just pull thumbnail from sd card video or no thumbnail at all. i have a lorex 8x 4k camera system that doesn't need subscription yet I get a detailed log. i can click on x event and it takes me to video of event.

@tonyht and probably never will as reolink doesn't know what they are doing. this feature was said to be in 4.40 yet it wasn't. they keep promising so new buyers dont return b4 30 days. then after the promise and nothing and want to get refund they use the excuse of sorry past 30 days.

As the title says. That being said all users should be getting free 180GB cloud storage FREE of cost until all issues are fixed and also until the damn things actually acts as a what it was advertised as also with app updates for call answer when doorbell is pressed.

@sdiriwell_699378058969325 no it isn't Google, Google gives the info how to integrate, its reolinks responsibility to implement properly.

Reolink should just open source firmware and software, apps and just make hardware. because right now reolink makes good hardware but Reilly sucks at firmware and software, apps

@joseph_1979 that would consist of @Reolink knowing what they are doing and so that means we will probably NEVER see call screen as they clearly have shown and proven they have no clue what thay are doing.

so disappointed in Reolink Doorbell that I had to use black Permanent Marker on Reolink Logo on doorbell as I don't want to advertise what a SHITTY thing it is. Don't want others to make the mistake and buy one or 2 or more like I did.

@pierre-gielen_288801745879289 surprised because they deduct a restocking fee from the refund plus have to pay shipping back to them. its even stated in their retern policy. also as per the emails I've had with them.

@user_746623229407444_746623229407444 even with a firmware update it probably wouldn't work as it also needs to be implemented in app as well and we all can see their devs have no clue what they are doing.

@smarthaus_seb you can add a custom sound without background sound (that sounds as though as you just uploaded actual sound file) to your DB or to any other RL camera by using 2 devices that has headphone jacks and a 4-pole Male to Male audio cable. Stick each end of cable in each device play audio file from 1 device and record using reolink app on other device and send to device. Sounds just like the actual audio file you wanted but can't upload to device.

@neptune_654294262100039 did you try it yet? you can also control how Laud the sound is recorded by useing volume on device playing sound file. for me it sounds as if i just added audio file. why they dont just allow us just to add our own audio files is beyond me because who wants to add a recorded from mic with background sound to db or any other device?
