Hikvision plans to discontinue the iVMS-4500 software from February 15, 2022. The iVMS-4500 installed on the mobile phone can continue to be used but cannot be upgraded. As alternative solutions, Hikvision has launched Hik-Connect App in 2016.
If you are an end-user who is using iVMS-4500 App, you use HIK-CONNECT in place of iVMS-4500.
Once installed, you can follow this guide to export the settings from your existing iVMS-4500 app into HIK-CONNECT app. QR Code Importing/Exporting will only work for iVMS-4500 -> iVMS-4500, or HIK-CONNECT -> HIK-CONNECT. It'll not export iVMS-4500 to HIK-CONNECT apps. https://www.lakson.com.sg/ticket/kb/faq.php?id=169
