This app is very accessible. It's used to monitor security cameras you may have around your home. Setting up a camera might require sighted assistance, because you have to scan a barcode on the device, but the other steps work fine and after setup actually using the app works pretty well.

VoiceOver Performance

Button Labeling

Other Comments

Not sure about this app but with other apps where I've had to use a barcode to detect a device What I do is I will move the device around in front of the camera until it detects the barcode. It may be tedious but it's a work around without sighted assistants.
