good but needs improvement
one feature dont work in 1.4. "automatically start at login" which affects "activate at launch". the second one works if you do it manually, but if the first one would work, the second one might be able to automatically kick in. this would be useful if the computer restarts, like in a power outage, so that periscope would restart as well.
next feature is just not very useful for me. "synchronize video clip folder with drop box" works well, but under one condition-you have to manually stop the application, THEN it uploads your video. if youre away for awhile, you could have 10 incidents recorded but youll never know because it doesnt upload until the app stops. even in idle mode, it wont upload until someone manually presses "stop recording". this is a huge problem for security use. also, if someone steals the computer running the app, then the video may NEVER be uploaded to dropbox and youll potentially never get it, unless the thieves connect to the internet without wiping the computer first.
a feature id like to see is some sort of notification when it detects motion/starts recording. theres no mobile app that im aware of, so a text or email alert. drop box doesnt have one either, so you just have to randomly check drop box, but then again, something will only be there if someone has stopped the app.
it would also be nice to be able to view the live feed remotely, and right there on the computer running it. you cant do either. its helpful to be able to aim the camera while you look at the feed. other apps offer this, although theyre more complicated to use.
otherwise, its very simple to set up and use. if you dont mind any of the above conditons in this version and will be operating it manually, then it will be a solid app for you.
