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!

    PTZ for my old cam "Foscam FI9821W V2" worked fine (Android App "OWLR: Foscam", ver 2.8.2.0, using Andoid 9 tablet or Android 10 smartphone), but PTZ is missing for my new "Foscam R4M". This makes your Android app useless.
    Please let me know if I can support update testing.

    The PTZ control showed up in one of my cameras but not the other of the same model. I thought it came up when I was tapping but maybe not. I do have some newer FOSCAM HD IP cameras that I would appreciate the PTZ feature as well. Thanks

    As of your list of supported camera's with PTZ control, my FI9816p should be supported, but I don't have the control buttons on my screen. What went wrong?

    This has been an open issue for over a year and has more votes than anything else. When will it be addressed? It only hurts your business as the app is useless without this support and the cameras are only getting newer. I really like this app very much and wish to be able to keep using it.

    Please add this for the newer versions of the R2 - PTZ works with both my older foscam cameras, but not the new R2 V5. It is really annoying.

    Where are the PAN TILT ZOOM controls in the Android app for Foscam R2? The app is useless to me without it.

    Please add this feature for the Foscam R2 series. I prefer using the Owlr app, but I will switch if PTZ is not supported. Thanks.

    This would be a great feature to have. I love the app besides this one omission
