Old Phone AI Security Camera

Turn your spare phone into an AI security camera. Watch your home, garage or pets from a second phone with free live viewing. Use one device as the Camera and another as the Viewer.

Install the app on both phones and connect them with a QR code or short code. Camera and Viewer work on Android and iOS. An internet connection is required for remote viewing.

AI EVENTS AND RECORDINGS

Choose people, animals or vehicles to detect. The Camera performs object detection on the device and can save event clips up to 30 seconds long, including several seconds before detection. Audio recording is optional. Monitoring uses credits or PRO; it is separate from free live viewing.

Online mode can transfer event videos for remote history and smaller previews for notifications. Offline mode keeps recordings on the Camera phone without uploading or synchronization; remote viewing and push notifications require internet. The app saves event clips, not continuous video.

LIVE VIEW AND MONITORING

Live viewing is free and does not use credits. Monitoring is separate: when enabled, the camera detects selected people, animals, or vehicles and creates event recordings and notifications. Smart Alerts use 1 credit per detection. Interval mode uses 0.1 credit per frame; 10 frames = 1 credit. Monitoring stops when credits reach zero. PRO provides unlimited monitoring.

INTERNET AND OFFLINE

Internet is required for live viewing, remote event history, and push notifications. Online monitoring can upload event videos and smaller previews. Offline mode keeps recordings on the camera phone without uploads or synchronization.

CONTEXT

Context adds a short factual description of visible activity to a recorded event. Its notification may arrive after the fast alert.
