How about your start with the basics and get your NVR's to work with gmail.

Bummer.. I have the exact same settings and "Allow apps that use less secure sign-in" on. It's weird because I'm getting the emails with an image marker but no actual image is attached or downloading. Even when logging into my gmail account to where my yahoo account is sending the notifica...

Like most, my gmail account stopped working. So I changed my email to Yahoo and it's kinda working. I'll get email notifications that the camera triggered but there will be no image attached. I never made any changes to any other settings other than the Email settings. When I checked on them they al...

I'm pretty disappointed at Amcrest for their ongoing failure to resolve the gmail issue. Yet my Lorex system at home works great and continues to send gmail emails. So at this point I'm done with Amcrest. For simplicity sake, can I use the Amcrest cameras with a new Lorex NVR? The cameras that came ...

Upon restart I downloaded the Amcrest Viewer Pro again. I configured it again and it started working right away. Obviously, something happ...

This is one of my beefs with Amcrest and other small companies that have apps. Many are not part of the iOS Apple Developers team because they're too cheap to pay for it. Instead, they wait until the new iOS comes out and THEN fix their app if it breaks, which can take months. I'm glad I only update...
