IC View Pro - Account System

The account system is a new feature in IC View Pro that allows users to sync their devices across multiple phones or tablets on supported hardware. It also includes temporary notification caching. This means that if you miss or dismiss a notification, it will be saved to your account for a short time so the app can fetch it later.

Not all models will support the account system. Some existing recorders will need a firmware update to use it, while certain legacy products will not be supported. At the end of this article, you will find a section listing which models are eligible for firmware updates. All future products will include account system support by default.

5. After signing up and logging in, IC View Pro will prompt you to enhance device security. This is optional. Enabling this feature will add two factor authentication when enrolling devices. You can press cancel if you don't want the feature enabled.

6. You can verify whether a device is added locally or using the account system from the home page. As mentioned, the account system requires firmware to work. Your system will fail to enroll if you try to use the account system without supported firmware.
