Update 9/16/20: They finally removed location as a required permission. Only thing required is storage now (at least for me), which is fine since they need to save pictures. Only been a few years that we've been asking for this. Thanks for FINALLY doing it. Once I use it a bit, I may raise my rating. Just tinkered enough to prove that location isn't required any more.

Update: After back and forth with Seek support, the problem was determined to be a setting on my phone. The display was set to Zoom in under Accessibility. This prevented me from scrolling down and choosing 'Opt-out' which is required because the Create New Logon server is down and crashes the app when selected. Short answer is to choose Opt-out when given the option. I haven't used the camera much yet but I felt I needed to at least change my star rating and review 1st. Original post: App shuts down when attempting to create sign in. The camera won't work unless this step is completed. I tried it on 2 different devices.

While the customer service people at Seek Thermal are some of the nicest and most helpful to be found anywhere, the application itself is so frustratingly buggy that I regret not going with a stand-along Flir brand model instead. The app constantly shuts down during usage, and sometimes even shuts down my whole phone (Moto X 1st gen) which then has to be rebooted. It is a very aggravating experience. I give it 2 stars only because when it works, in between freeze-ups and shutdowns, it is quite nice. 2020 Update: Bought a used Moto G with Android 4.4.2. just for apps backup. Installed Seek Thermal and surprise, surprise, the Seek camera works with it without constantly crashing. Don't know why an older Android version is a far better match for this camera. My newer and more expensive Moto X 1st Gen. with Android 5.1 continues to be maddeningly buggy, often crashing several times a minute. I love the camera, but the app needs to be totally rewritten for other Android versions than 4.4.2. In summary, 2 stars if you use it with Android 5.1 (Moto X 1st gen. in my case), and 4-1/2 stars if you use it with Android 4.4.2 (Moto G). This camera is EXPENSIVE and the app needs to equal it.
