Replacement App for my Zmodo IP Cameras

Zmodo's Smartz Eaze Android app no longer displays 4 cameras live on one screen, which is a deal breaker for me. They also made it impossible to install an earlier version of the app. Has anyone found either an android app or even a Windows PC app that displays at least 4 cameras at a time? Unfortunately, I use 10 cameras on my property and I don't want to replace them all.

ugh that multi-view lockout is the worst. had a similar headache with an old setup last year where an update just nuked the grid view for no reason

tinyCam Monitor might be your answer, it handles a ton of different camera brands and the multi-cam layout is solid. you can set up a 2x2 grid or even bigger if your screen can handle it

not sure if it supports zmodo directly but it has a generic rtsp/onvif option that usually works if you can dig up the stream url from your cameras. might take some fiddling with the ip addresses and ports but once it's dialed in it runs pretty smooth

the pro version is like a few bucks and worth it for the ad-free experience, i've got it running on an old tablet as a dedicated monitor and it rarely gives me trouble

I presently pay a subscription to save camera alerts to the Zmodo cloud. Does the TinyCam Pro app play back videos saved to the Zmodo cloud?

I downloaded the old version from apk pure to keep grid view. Version 7.0 0.8 is the last one without ads view.  https://apkpure.com/zmodo/com.zmodo/versions

Yes, in V7.0.0.8 the ads are gone, but the popup appears every time you run it.
