Motion Detection Schedule
In addition to Snoozing, it would be nice to schedule when there shouldn't be motion so we only receive alerts during that time.
35 votesThat’s a great suggestion, please add votes to it so that it can be prioritised as an additional feature.

Enable Zoom and Optical zoom for cameras
E.g Zoom for the R2
43 votesCurrently re-writing all of our scripts. Once we’ve done this should be easy to add this feature.

Alert Zones
Would be great if we could "color in" a part of the camera's view where we want motion alerts to come from. That way I could exclude the window with the waving branches, or the busy street out front.
46 votesThis feature is planned as well – it requires a bit of work on both the camera interface, our app interface and our server interface. But it is in the pipeline for more control.

Add Controls
You folks just added alerts. Great, but what we really need for Foscam cameras is the ability to turn certain settings on / off like motion detect so we can send our own alerts through the camera's own funtionality. Turn it on when needed, off when not. A couple other basic setting switches would also be nice. Not sure why I would pay a monthly fee to send alerts through your system? Add needed functionalty and I'll gladly pay for the app.
5 votesThanks for that. We are working on Motion Alerts Scheduler. Coming soon.

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.
79 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

UPDATE 6/12/2016: We have the scripts for presets for most of our supported cameras. We will implement them soon but there needs to be a bit of refactoring before we get them in!
-
Support Video Recording to Camera Roll
Allow you to record the current stream as a video with sound to the camera roll.
43 votesDue to the rewrite, we needed to deprioritize for the next set of features. But it is planned.

Set alert periods
Would be great to set alert periods ather than always on except when you trigger a snooze. For example I don't want alerts during the night in the room my pet wanders around in but I do want alarms during the day in this room when I am out.
9 votesScheduled alerts are planned and will be implemented soon.

Enable landscape view of 4 or more camera in parallel
Allow user to select a grid type (4, 6, 9) cameras and show them in landscape view in parallel.
61 votesThis is planned for DVR/NVR support and should have it for Android first and then iOS.
-
Support external access to multiple cameras with the same port.
The Foscam app seems to support it but I like your software better. Your app tries to change the port else it fails but the Foscam app seems to work (fails frequently).
9 votesThank you for the suggestion and request. Noted!

For sd card enabled cameras build a control to review the last x (configurable) minutes of video.
For sd card enabled cameras build a control to review the last x (configurable) minutes of video. Would also be nice to play back at something other than real time.

Add a 12 hour option on notif. snooze
Please add a 12 hour option on the motion detection snooze feature. Most people with 9-5 jobs come home in the evening and are home until the morning, 8 hrs isn't enough and 24 is too long.
I also voted for the motion detection scheduler idea but I figured the 12hr snooze would be a little easier to implement until a scheduler is available. Thanks.
9 votesActually being added as a snooze feature for multiple times.
