Is it enough, or too little, waaaay too late?!

While i like the cloud feature, i have no need to upgrade to a paid version the free one does just fine, the actual app could do with an overhaul, but it works for me.

The main thing I see is if you have 2 cameras (say to build a 4CH setup), the price drops from $20/mo to $7/mo. You can still always have two free accounts using two different email addresses if you don't mind logging in/out to check the different cams (ahem... lol), but at least now the price is a little more palatable. Not free like Thinkware's options, but Blackvue's cloud is better than theirs so hey.

This is exactly what I do.

I don't care so much about the cloud or most of it's features. It's neat and all, but it's just fluff. I hardly ever use most of the features.

What I DO want is to be able to manage both my cams (setting, firmware updates, etc.) under ONE login without having to do the log-in, log-out dance. It's annoying.

I should be able to do that, and then pay them for their cloud services by how many cameras I WANT to cloud-enable and how much storage space I WANT to buy. The way they've chosen to implement their service is maddening, and frustrating for customers. I don't get why they don't see that.

So yeah, step in the right direction, but they didn't solve the MOST annoying problem for their customers.
