Android VS iOS unbelievable streaming quality difference

Post by TommasoSan »

Hi,

i use the Security app with 2 Presence and 1 Welcome both on Android and iOS; i notice an important different between them referred to connection speed (with android the streaming starts in few second, with iOS the time is longer) and streaming quality (with iOS is difficult to achive 720p and quite impossible to achive 1080p instead on android i can easily stream my cameras in 720p/1080p).

Someone knows the reason?

thanks


P.S. this happens in any case, even connected to the same Wifi; iOS devices are more powerful than Android (iPad Pro and iPhone 8 against Galaxy A5)

At the moment i have 3 presence and 1 welcome and the ISP was updater from adsl to fiber;

With android app the streaming is fully 1080p...with iOS is 360p and sometimes 720p...

I can’t understand....any other with the same issue?

Thanks

Yes, I have the same experience. On the contrary have a look to live stream of your presence in home kit.....what would you say? Better than video quality live stream in security app...right?

i can't say that the video quality is better with homekit because i don't have an iPad/Aplle TV/homepod as hub so i can't access to live video out of my wifi enviroment; this is not a good test.


I can report this quality test result:

1- Android --> 1080p with a perfect stream
2- Web --> 720/1080p with rare stucks
3- iOS --> 360 with rare 720p streaming and a lot of stucks

obviously this test was performed in the same condition and 5 minutes time interval
