No option for email alerts in Android app?

Post by awebber »

Apologies if this is discussed elsewhere, but I did search for it.

I'm trying to add email alerts to an IPM-721 as instructed in section 4.3.7 of the manual (v2.0.4, Aug 18/16).

I can't actually see an option in the AmcrestView Pro app for Android. When I go to Configuration Centre, my choices are Motion Detect, Video Tamper, Video Stream, Alarm Trigger, Recording Schedule, Modify Device Password. What's missing is "Email Alerts" which the manual shows as the second item between Motion Detect and Video Tamper.

I think email alerts are ultimately more useful to me than push notifications (I used email alerts on an older security camera from another company).

Am I missing something, or did they remove email alerts?

Thanks!

Hello awebber,

Currently email settings are not available on the phone app. You can set them from the computer through the cameras' web interface.
