Camy Android

Set up a live video surveillance system with an old cell phone

Installing a video surveillance system at home or in the office doesn't have to cost a bundle. In fact, it can be free. All we need is a smartphone or tablet that we no longer use and download the APK file of this app.

How to turn a smartphone into a surveillance camera

Camy is a tool that turns an old smartphone or tablet into a security camera. It is as simple as installing the application on the device and on our smartphone and linking both terminals.

Turn your phones and tablets into real-time video surveillance systems.

In just a few seconds we will start to see the image captured by the camera of our old mobile on the new one. In addition, it has a lot of useful functions:

• High quality video transmission.
• Microphone.
• Video recording.
• Switch between rear and front camera.
• Screenshots.
• Night mode.
• Background playback (picture-in-picture mode).
• Remote flashlight function.
• Automatic video recording to the cloud.
• Motion detection.
• Function to talk through the microphone.
• Web version.
• Ability to connect multiple phones.
• Turn off the screen to save energy.
• Zoom.

On the other hand, it also shows us information about the video transmission and the remaining battery of the device that works as a surveillance camera. And best of all, it is a totally free tool. However, some of its functions require a subscription to the premium mode for a small fee.

If you are worried about what your pets are doing when you leave the house or want to monitor your baby, this app provides an extraordinary and very practical service. And it's free.
