I've been looking for an app that allows cell phones and other devices to act as security cameras For I don't know how Long! This is the 1st one I found that doesn't require you to buy and install and set up actual Perminent cameras. This idea and concept seemed genius to me but I never had the technological for bility to create it myself, So glad someone else Finally saw the demand and possibilities out this con

It works as described. The free version will allow you to watch any device with a cam that the app is on but the premium version of the app is to expensive as it only unlocks automatic features like autorecord and alarm for a monthly fee but does not upload the video to online storage or any other feature that would be worth a 5 dollar month fee. Change the price to a one time fee and then it becomes more then a one time use app because you end up forgetting to set it up and record manually.

Setup requiring Google account to be put on phone! I don't want to put a specific account on the phone to be able to use the app, I don't need it to log in for anything else! How to view over the web, without installing the app again?!? No dark mode!!! Can't tell if most of the settings are active or not, pain in the ass! Still says purchase, Unsure what I'm paying a monthly fee for?!? (This alone was 2 stars!) Crashes upon signout! Under "records", date is wrong! Doesn't fix/update itself!

One of the best Apps That ive seen in a while. Finally something comes along that makes use of the unused technology that most of us just have laying in junk drawers on on shelves just collecting dust... & not only does it allow us to use our spare devices , Cawice then makes them relevant and quite useful again. Love the features and design of the app as well !!! Wish i could get the premium so i could leave even more details. Until then I will just be happy for what functions i can use so far. A+

Update still does not work properly I've tested more and come to find out you could be in the range of the camera for a few minutes before it takes pictures or recordings but if it changes from sunny to overcast or vice-versa you will get notifications all day and see nothing but the sun changing. And when you try to redirect pictures and recordings they don't go there. People detection never works I've turned it on and walked around all day with not 1 picture.

there are a couple of things that would be nice to see fixed. sometimes the camera phone takes a little bit longer to connect to the viewer. also so far every time I try to record a live feed the app glitches and stops running. Great idea and almost perfect setup just a couple more bugs to workout

They REALLY nees to create a ZERO star option! This has got to be, by far, the worst app i have ever used! installed on one phone as the camera. Video never shows. viewer phone says camera is online. I NEVER GET A PICTURE THOUGH! The options for motion detection and sound detection turn off right away. install on a second phone as camera. shows video twice for a second or two. again same problems! ALL other similar apps have worked. why not this one? Garbage!

Hilariously bad. Is this app a joke? Of all the phone security camera apps this one is by far the worst, and I've basically tried them all. Its "motion capture" recording, if you can even call it that, takes 50kb pictures of which I can count the individual pixel and somehow still fails to capture any motion. It doesn't even show up in the gallery, which remains empty, and I have to go to Google drive to see it directly.

When I tried to create my account it asked for a credit card to be on file, it was a requirement to create the account. They said there wouldn't be any charges numerous times on the page as soon as I submitted the card I got a fraud alert, they tried to charge me $39.99. I kept my card locked thank goodness, because other charges were also attempted. RE: Cawice I downloaded your App from playstore and I was in the App when I received the notification to create an account.

It works alright. I purchased this app so I could record and it does not automatically record. and if I am watching in real time and record manually, I still can not review the videos. They are in a format that I can not figure out how to play the videos. It's a waste of money and time. I also can not connect with the viewer phone outside of my home. pointless

What else can I say, but "WOW!!" I just came across this app less than 15 minutes ago and already have it set up on my AT&T Note 8 as a viewer and an old Alcatel running WiFi only for the camera. Lots of features in the free version like motion and sound detection also alerts to the viewer phone. I am going to upgrade to premium for sure, just to support the developers. Thank you, keep up the great work! EDIT: Just upgraded to premium. Definitely worth it! Best security camera app ever!

What they consider to be basic features or functions they make available for free that they could charge quite easily for. The fact that the app does more than just 1 thing is a bargain in itself. Bonuses are added that are not even really essential just to make the app functional. Setup was fast and not technical at all. No complaints or issues here.

The Ads aren't too annoying but the siren button doesnt seem to work often for me. Streaming via Cell signal which is almost impossible. On wifi it is okay, but my cell internet is faster than my rural wifi at home, so not sure why I'm getting such poor streaming with faster internet via cell signal and good signal. I get a couple seconds of stream at best. it's good enough for a couple second check in via phone. works good with home internet though.

I'm using the free version and to be honest I see no reason to pay for it. You get what you buy so considering it is free I'm extremely happy. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of lag err nothing and I used it many miles away from the camera device. It's an awesome alternative to purchasing an ip camera.

bought the upgrade, apps works well. I would like the "camera phone" screen to lock at the phone locking screen. Problem is if the screen is touched the screen wakes to video recording screen, not exactly surveillance. The monitoring phone does not connect until a few attempts, issue seen in this phone is the tilt / screen orientation is to sensitive. I have had an instance where it says I have movement recorded it but video would not play. besides these the is very good, very intuitive.

Very good. sometimes need to reconnect offline cam device just tap the cam name should reconnect. Talk through the cam phone press n hold mic. audio is received auto from cam phone. great for Many monitoring jobs, doors and pets. I leave the power plug in though battery power% is shown. auto motion alert, records video or pics whenever you want. turn on torch or swap front/ back. most similar app are not even close to this. next best to dedicated security hardware. haven't tried premium features

Okay, so I bought the month subscription. I'm still having trouble getting a recording. I've uninstalled and installed on both phones. I don't know why I'm having so much problems. But I'm giving it 4 stars until I get a video recording or not. I've restarted both phones too. I'm anxious to resolve the issue. I followed instructions. I couldn't get any recordings it keeps closing. After I purchased the monthly it won't open at all.. :/

If you view the live streaming while listening to music/radio etc., the music/radio etc will stop. Is there a setting to avoid this so we can listen to music and view the streaming at the same time? Can I listen to the audio using earphone? Currently the audio can be heard from speaker only.
