Cameras themselves are top of the line. It’s unfortunate that the app is not. For the life of my i cannot figure out why Spartan hasn’t stayed up to date with all development like other camera brands have. Every single other brand of cellular cameras I have has a much more user friendly, and much more feature rich app than Spartan. And now those others are starting to catch up with product quality as well. This is the bare bones of what a app should be. You can’t save pictures or videos. You can create albums. Those are pretty basic functions that other brands have had for years but Spartan does not.
I’ve tried numerous cell cameras in the past along with all their apps and Spartan is far and away better than any of them. I was reluctant to try Spartan for years due to them being around a longer time and not being the shiny new fancy cell camera others claimed to be. The inflated megapixels and claims of amazing trigger speeds and picture quality lured me to other brands for a while. After having issues with multiple cameras from other brands, I finally decided to give the tried and true, lower megapixel rating, rock solid Spartan cameras a chance. I was blown away. The 8 megapixel photos on these cameras are clearer than any 30mp on any other camera. The app is amazing and very easy to use. You can share your cameras with others and download HD photos and videos with ease. These are the best cameras I’ve ever used and will continue to be a customer for life.
These Spartans are in a class of their own. This app makes it a cake walk. Extremely easy to set up on the camera itself or with the app. You can change your camera settings from your couch and as far as I can tell it is instant. Picture and video quality are unmatched. Just add it to your phone plan like a tablet and it’s $5 a month for unlimited pics, videos and HD pictures that you could frame. I have used several other camera app’s and this one is right there with the others.
Spartan is by far the best camera on the market. The best part is in my opinion is your options as far as the cameras to choose from and the incredible features they offer! Also, the picture quality with unlimited HD pics, and video quality with audio is unmatched to any other camera. In addition to the cameras, the app is very simple and easy to use and helps you keep these cameras going and up to date! I love how you can do everything from the apps if you choose to do so.
About 25% of the time the GoLive function button is grayed out when I open the app. GoLive does not need work and I cannot request that the camera take a pic. The only way to get the functions to work is to delete and reload the app. Have seen numerous other Spartan GoLive camera reviews that mention the same issue. I purchased a second camera to see if the issue might with the camera. I have the same issue with both cameras. App is loaded on an iPhone and an iPad.
If you’re looking for a cell cam that simply is the most reliable camera on the market, then Spartan is your camera! I have a gocam that is a 2018 model and it’s only been Out of the woods a total of less than 10 days….and it’s never missed a beat. If that’s not enough out of a camera, then you’re simply not able to be pleased! Simple as that! It’s hands down the most reliable and dependable camera out there!
Spartan is the best in the game. If you’re a big whitetail hunter, or any type of big game, these cameras are a must have. Durability, dependability, and quality are top values in this company. Customer service is amazing if you ever have to use them, and pictures/videos are top notch. App is super user friendly, and never crashes. There’s info on every setting for the camera in app, and what the setting means. You can’t go wrong here folks.
My favorite feature within the app is the, Library tab. Once selected, it brings up all the new pictures I have from each of the cameras active on my cellular plan. The best part is, they load according to date and time, so if I have an animal traveling from one side of the property to the other, I get an idea of their travel route and routine. This allows me to target and pattern specific animals on our property.
I have multiple cameras and shared cameras. The camera picture icons are too big for quickly viewing. New photo’s don’t even show up…you have to click on the camera to view new photo. The library is confusing to figure out which camera took the new pic if you have multiple cameras. Please make pic icons smaller for quick view.
The app offers a seamless and user-friendly experience, making it easy to monitor and manage spartan cameras. The app has a intuitive interface and navigation of the app is a breeze. The layout is clean and organized, allowing for quick access of cameras and setting. I personally like the ability to remotely control and configure my spartan cameras through the app.
One of the most reliable, durable and easy to use cameras on the market… leading industry technology, crystal clear images/videos backed with a first class customer service department you just simply cannot go wrong with a Spartan Camera! Several models to choose from both non-cellular and cellular with a multi carrier option available! Go check them out…
I have been using Spartan Cameras for 6 years and have loved every minute of it. It is so nice to be able to see what is going on, as well as being able to make adjustments to the camera without having to disturb the area by walking out to it. I would be lost without my Spartan camera and the amazing app that makes it easy to operate.
This app is really easy to navigate and figure out, the spartan cameras are the best cameras I’ve used and I have been hunting since I could walk. Where we hunt they are the only cameras that work, tactacams won’t work on either service us cell and Verizon, but Spartans will find a way everytime!
I have been running Spartan cell cams for the last 4.5 years and have been very happy with my experience. I have one GoCam with over 100,000 photos taken and it is still running strong. I have tried out several other cell cams and I will just say that Spartan has won me over for good!!!
I have been running Spartan cameras since 2015. I have to say that they’re hands down the best cameras I have ever used. One of my GoCams is about to begin its 4th year in use and approaching 50,000 pictures. The app is easy to navigate and the camera settings are easy. You will not be disappointed. The GoLive is my personal favorite.
Great camera except the person I share the photos with can’t delete hers. My understanding is the shared camera auto deletes in 30 days. That’s a TON of pictures to load each time and eats the phone battery. With turkeys looking for food, there were 354 pictures just today. She used to be able to delete them, asI do. Needs an upgrade.
I’ve used about every trail camera you can buy and you won’t beat a Spartan and with the recent updates to the app makes viewing and customization to each camera to your liking a breeze. Get a Spartan and see what you’ve been missing!
Been using Spartan cameras and their app for 5 years now and highly recommend them to all my hunting buddies. The Spartan team is always looking for ways to improve the app and its functionality. Super impressed with this company and the quality of their cell cams.
I would give it 5 stars if the notifications could be turned on for some cameras and off for others. Very annoying when you have multiple cameras and only one or two that you really want to be bothered with a notification about. Emailed developer with no reply
Videos do not load nearly as quickly as before. They fixed the issue with being able to zoom and being able to play videos in silent mode. But, overall the loading of videos is so much slower than it used to be. About 3 updates ago, the videos loaded great. Need an update that allows thumbnails and videos to load easier.
The app allows you to get notifications on your phone when the camera takes a new photo, but the notification is a pretty weak tone. It would be great if the app could access the phones ring tones to be able to select something more noticeable.
I run multiple of both the GoLive & GoCam cameras from Spartan. The quality and reliability of these cameras are top notch and they have yet to let me down. I rely heavily on them as scouting tools come hunting season. They also double as surveillance cameras for a home, shop, business or anywhere!
I was happy how the app was working and the past two updates have changed things and now I cannot delete pictures and when I receive pictures from cameras, we are sharing it does not put the current date pictures on top, so I have to scroll down to find the current date and pictures to view. Please fix this problem!!
I’ve been a Spartan user for many years. Some of my friends use other brand cameras and their app is of no comparison to the Spartan App. Easy to use, easy to understand. Minimal lag time and quick pictures. Very impressed and would suggest to anyone.
The Spartan Camera app is perfected to be the most reliable app I use for hunting. It’s constantly evolving to be better than ever. I wake up in the mornings to a well laid out format that I can quickly see everything that walked in front of my cameras.
Very user friendly product. I’ve been using Spartan for several years, always like the support and the service. The update improved the download speed for multiple cameras. Keep it up!
I received an invitation to share a camera so that I could decide whether to buy. Logged into account after receiving invitation. App only displayed old pictures and old location, not current pictures or current location. Attempted to contact help, but only got artificial intelligence garbage responses. The app has no live button. I would not recommend this to another person. And I will not buy their system.
These cameras are top of the line. I’ve used all types of camera brands. Never have any issues with these cameras. Super cool that you can request videos off the touch of a button. Overall great camera for such a reasonably cheap price
Spartans newest app makes viewing the most recent photos and videos super easy. The app allows downloading and viewing high def videos and high quality pictures. Love this app.
The shared camera can no longer delete photos, they auto delete after 30 days. This eats the phone battery up. Definitely need an upgrade so shared cameras can delete photos again.
Phenomenal camera, that is very reliable to use. the detection range is unbelievable and the quality of the camera image is also very good. Definitely will be only cameras I use going forward!
App has always been a little clunky. New release auto deleted my interface with the camera. Have been trying for days to get it up and running again and the interface does not execute time lapse command. The camera has been robust for 3 years, software has always been the issue.
Spartan cameras are the best trail cameras on the market. Add the app and you are ready to experience results like no other available. Everything you need to get the most out of your cameras is right here at your finger tips.
New app is horrible. It won’t zoom in on live. Turning phone sideways won’t let it field of view zoom/get bigger. Takes several minutes or more before videos and pictures download to app before I can view them. The other app was was a lot better. Can’t believe a high dollar outfit like this would have such a terrible app to work with.
The app keeps closing over and over again as soon as I try to look at a video or if I’m scrolling through them. It just said I saved a video after hitting “pla.y.” I didn’t even hit that arrow. Every update makes it worse. We pay hundreds of dollars for cameras and now have an app that doesn’t work.
The app no longer shows the time stamp no matter how many times I delete app and reinstall. The time and date are correct on my camera. The battery shows full sometimes and shows low sometimes. Please fix!!
Last update is a disaster! Using an iPad mini n cannot turn the “compact” view off! This is very problematic. I have 10 Spartan cams n take a lot of photos. I can no longer view these photos at a glance but have ta open every one to see if there is anything worthy of hitting the video button. PLEASE fix this problem!
Spartan cameras are top notch, app is easy to navigate and customer service is top notch! 2 years running cameras year around and not one single hiccup. AWESOME
Cameras work great they are the best out there. Ever since app update the app is terrible. Can’t watch videos. Click play on videos it just brings up black screen. Wish they would do something. Pay all this money and can’t even use them properly.
