Hi, Has anybody else noticed that the signal strength indications have reduced following the app update?

 

I have 4 cameras, and they all dropped one bar of 'signal strength' since the update.

 

It has to be app related as when accessed via the web or other ios apps the signal strength is showing full strength as they always did before.

 

Would be interested to hear if its just me!!

 

Thanks

Nick

I noticed that there are now four bars in the battery icon. Before there were only three!

 

So, perhaps due to the improved granularity of the gauge, it may only appear that your battery levels have dropped, when in fact the reading has merely become more accurate.

 

Either way, in addition, we now have a battery level percentage show on a camera's Settings page. Better observe that now.
