Refresh view on main screen of app?

NerdGlasses — Mon, 26 Sep 2016 22:43:04 GMT

Is there a way to refresh the screenshots of the cameras on the main screen? As of now, I can only get an updated view if I start a recording session on each camera. I would really love to just hit one button or pull-to-refresh my camera view screen. Anyone know? Or anyone agree this would be useful?

You have to turn the cameras on in order to get an updated screenshot. I don't start a recording session, I just hit the play button, but I agree, with several cameras it would be nice to have a single button to turn on all cameras at once. Great idea.

Thanks Greg. That's what I've been doing, and then I hit pause to get my updated still image(s). Glad you agree that a refresh button for a quick update of snapshots would be useful. Thanks for the reply!
