I am setting up Blue Iris for the first time and want to make sure I am using the best mobile app on iPhone to view my cameras, alerts, triggers that I have set up on my Windows Blue Iris machine.

It is the $9.99 app called Blue Iris that I should be getting, correct? I don't want to pay $10 if this isn't the "right" app.

Thanks in advance.

And you can always use the UI3 that is native to BI and is free.

You do not get push notifications, but you can have BI send you text messages on alerts.

I have the BI app and bounce between the app and UI3.

I just got the iOS app yesterday and linked it to my server and IMO it's amazing. It paired perfectly, especially when using the qr code at the end of the remote access wizard. So simple!

The UI3 interface is beautiful to work with on a big screen like tablet or computer monitor, I just think it's too small to work with on my phone where the app is just more mobile friendly.

Push notifications work like a charm.

I know this is really old thread but the BI app is also part of family sharing so $10 gets you and you family access.
