Thanks for the responses. I'm on Verizon too. I'll try a delay between messages and see how that works. Thanks again, I can always count on you folks!

Thanks!

Thanks for replying. I found the link (Blue Iris 2.0.71 Apk + Mod for Android), but it gives me a "App not installed" error. I've turned off automatic updates, but a little too late I guess. Thanks.
