IR option for older Foscams
I really like your application. However I have 5 older model cameras (F18910W) that I cannot control the infrared lights on. Just curious if you will ever be updating the application to add this option for older model cameras.
Would even be happy to pay for this update.

Android App lacks PTZ control for Foscam R2(V4)
The current (as of April 2018) Android app lacks PTZ controls for the Foscam R2 (at least for my V4).
Any chance of getting this added? My other, really old Foscam cameras work fine (w/ PTZ).
Thanks for considering!
174 votesThat is correct – this is a feature that we are likely going to add soon. Please see the list of supported cameras and features here: https://owlr.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/458563-supported-cameras-for-owlr-apps.

Toggle Motion Detection
I use OWLR with the Foscam C1 HD camera. Your app works very well, much better than the paid apps too.
I use the C1 as a baby monitor and would like to toggle the Motion/Sound detecion from the OWLR app
The only way to do that now is to open the focam app-click on the camera-settings-alert-activity detection/sound detection-on/off
Also Video recording/iPad support will be awesome.

Maybe, it depends how many users actually want this and how much effort it would take on our behalf. Even so, this will not be the case for a long time.

Support Other Camera Account Privillages
Original title - Viewing cameras without needing adminstrator rights
Hey Daniel here - Just merged this idea with few duplicates, makes it easer for my to reply to everyone. I've also tweaked the title to make it more generic for all cameras rather than just Foscams.
It should be possible to set up/view Foscam camera streams for example as "operator" or "guest" as well and not only with "administrator" rights. This would be much more secure.
82 votesUPDATE 12/12/2016:
I have merged a few other ideas into this one, makes it easier for me to reply to you all!
We know this is a potential problem for some – we have needed to revamp the authentication features for the iOS app – which we are still addressing. It definitely something we are looking into though!

Background Audio - Play audio when app is closed
I Love this app. I do wish, for those of us who use their cameras as baby monitors, that it had the ability to provide audio for the camera even when the app is minimized and the screen is locked similar to what Pandora does. I know I don't want my screen on all night while I am watching a sleeping baby.
69 votesUPDATE 6/12/2016:
We are aware of this – and it will require a rework of the video player to support the audio separate from the video and to be able to keep the battery use at a minimum.
We actually have someone looking at this right now. So we are one step closer to implementing this feature

add support for camera preset positions
Some (all?) Foscam cameras allow you to configure preset positions that you can select to aim the camera. Can Owlr offer support for this feature?

VPN Support
Original post - "External access through OpenVPN would be very appreciated."
We get quite a few requests to support VPNs in general. Feel free to add your vote here!
61 votesUPDATE: 7/12/2016
Note: Changed Request title
Definitely something we will be adding in the future.
Workaround/ fix for Android:
VPN are not supported because of the way our app binds to the port.
I personally use a VPN on my Android phone; the way I get around the issue is discovery and setup the camera’s without my VPN turned on. Once you’ve done this and all the camera’s are setup, you can then switch your VPN back on.
I’ve only tested this on my phone (Samsung S6), as the other devices in the office do not have VPN setup on them, so this isn’t a guaranteed fix.
Daniel :)

Fix any issues with Foscam R4
I have tried and tried to add it. Although during the add, it shows the image of the camera just fine, when I go back to the list of cameras, it is always stuck on "configuring camera" and you can't do anything but edit it. If you click on "Video Settings" in the edit screen, the image comes up again, but only during the add process and video settings screen. Main list of cameras never works, so you can't click on the camera to view it.
