Yes, the Hik-Connect app is completely free to download and use. All core features — including live viewing, video playback, push notifications, PTZ control, two-way audio, and device sharing — are available at no cost. Unlike many competitors, Hikvision does not charge a monthly subscription for cloud access or basic functionality. Video recordings are stored locally on DVR/NVR hard drives or camera SD cards.
Hik-Connect works with a wide range of Hikvision products that support Cloud P2P, including: DVRs and NVRs (Turbo HD and network video recorders), IP cameras (fixed, PTZ, bullet, dome, and turret models), video doorbells and intercoms, security control panels (alarm and access control panels), and select Pyronix devices in certain regions. The app does not support third-party cameras or generic ONVIF devices.
To add a device: (1) Create a Hik-Connect account using your email or phone number, (2) Ensure your Hikvision device is connected to the internet and Cloud P2P is enabled in the device settings, (3) Open the app and tap '+' to add a device, (4) Scan the QR code on the device label or manually enter the device serial number, (5) Enter the device verification code (usually the camera's admin password). The Cloud P2P technology handles the connection automatically without requiring port forwarding.
The encryption password (also called verification code) is a security feature that encrypts the video stream between your device and the app. It is typically set during the initial device setup and may be the same as your device admin password. If you forget it, you can reset it through the device's web interface or by performing a hardware reset on the device. This password ensures that only authorized users can view your camera feeds.
Hik-Connect is primarily a mobile app for iOS and Android. For PC and Mac access, Hikvision provides the iVMS-4200 desktop client (Windows) and iVMS-4200 for Mac, which offer more advanced features including multi-channel viewing, centralized device management, and video wall configuration. You can also access the Hik-Connect web portal at www.hik-connect.com for basic remote viewing.
Camera offline status is usually caused by: (1) The device lost its internet connection — check your router and network cables, (2) Cloud P2P is not enabled on the device — verify in the device's network settings, (3) The device firmware needs updating — update via the device web interface, (4) DNS or firewall is blocking the connection — ensure ports 80, 443, and 8555 are not blocked, (5) The Hik-Connect server is temporarily unavailable — check the service status. Restarting the device and router often resolves connectivity issues.
Yes, Hik-Connect supports two-way audio on compatible Hikvision devices that have built-in microphones and speakers. This includes select IP cameras, video doorbells, and indoor stations. During live view, tap the microphone icon to activate two-way audio. Audio quality depends on your network connection speed and the device hardware.
To share a device: (1) Open Hik-Connect and go to the device you want to share, (2) Tap the settings icon and select 'Share Device', (3) Enter the other person's Hik-Connect account (email or phone), (4) The recipient will receive a sharing invitation in their app. Shared users can view live feeds and playback but may have limited management permissions depending on your settings.
Hik-Connect employs multiple security measures: encrypted data transmission between devices and the app, account authentication with email/phone verification, optional two-factor authentication, device-level encryption passwords for video streams, and regular security updates. For maximum security, use strong unique passwords for both your Hik-Connect account and device admin access, keep firmware updated, and enable all available security features.
The Hik-Connect app itself does not provide 24/7 recording — it is a remote viewing and management tool. Continuous 24/7 recording is handled by the Hikvision hardware: NVRs with hard drives can record all connected cameras continuously, and cameras with SD cards can record locally. You can configure recording schedules (continuous, motion-triggered, or alarm-triggered) through the device settings or the iVMS-4200 desktop software.
Nest cameras are no comparison to Hikvision. My Hikvision NVR and cameras have never once crashed on me. The video quality is outstanding, especially with the 4K cameras. Night vision is crystal clear. Hik-Connect makes remote viewing a breeze.
Multi-area arm/disarm, relay control, offline Wi-Fi reconfiguration, enhanced security with web password setup and user management, flexible picture capture permission sharing, optimized AX HOME features.
Excellent video quality and very fast connection. The Cloud P2P makes setup so much easier than messing with port forwarding. Would love to see some UI improvements with pinch-to-zoom, but overall a solid surveillance app.
I manage 4 different locations with Hikvision cameras and NVRs, and Hik-Connect lets me check all of them from one app. Push notifications are fast and reliable. The device sharing feature is great for giving my staff access to specific cameras.
After trying Ring and Arlo, I switched to Hikvision for the no-subscription model. The app works well for live viewing and playback. PTZ control is smooth. The only downside is the initial setup requires some technical knowledge.
Best security camera app I've used. The Cloud P2P connection is fast and reliable. I can view my 8-channel NVR from anywhere. Two-way audio works great with the video doorbell. No monthly fees is the biggest plus.
The Hik-Connect app is adequate and works for basic monitoring. Video quality through the app is good and connection via Cloud P2P is reliable. Could use some improvements to the preset management and UI responsiveness.
Running 16 Hikvision cameras across my business. The app handles all of them without issues. Push notifications are instant when motion is detected. Being able to share specific cameras with different employees is a game changer.
Very solid app for managing Hikvision devices. Live view quality is excellent and playback works smoothly. The alarm notification feature with snapshot previews helps me quickly assess whether something needs attention.
I've used Hik-Connect for 3 years now and it keeps getting better with each update. The Cloud P2P eliminates all the port forwarding headaches. Managing my home DVR and 6 cameras from my phone is seamless.
Good surveillance app with reliable performance. The video intercom feature is a nice addition — I can see and talk to visitors at my front door from anywhere. The multi-channel view works well for a quick overview of all cameras.
