eWeLink Camera - Home Security

CoolKit Technology

About this app

eWeLink Camera App lets you look after the ones you care about from anywhere and anytime, by turning your idle Android phone into a security camera, baby monitor, pet monitor, nanny cam, and more. No need to buy a new IP camera. No mount required, just install the app, put the phone in the right position, and start watching by a few setting steps easily.

Key Features:

1. Easy to set up, No mount required. There are only 3 steps to set up. Follow the step-by-step instructions and get all set in minutes.

2. 24/7 Live Streaming. After setting up the camera phone, it streams everything you care about. Watch the live streaming whenever, and wherever you're. Worry-free even when you're out of home.

3. Security matters. Enable the Motion Detection to get an instant notification when there is any movement detected. The recorded clips can be saved to your phone albums. Review what has been captured at any time.

4. Multi-access to live feed. Watching the live feed on the linked phone is a common feature, but it's not always convenient. We offer three more accesses to the live feed, that is, view on Echo Show, Google Nest Hub, and eWeLink Web. Just pick the easier access to the live view.

5. Get remote interactions. With the 2-way talk feature, it is so easy to chat with your loved ones, watch your little baby when you're in the middle of something, or even yell at the un-expected visitors, faster than grab the phone call.

6. Check device status. This is an exclusive feature for eWeLink users. You can pin the camera to eWeLink support switches and check it before action.

Setup Guide:

Step 1: Prepare two phones; download and install eWeLink Camera App on the Android phone (use as the camera), and download and install eWeLink App on the other phone (Viewer)
Step 2: Create an eWeLink account if you don't have one
Step 3: Log in with the same eWeLink account

Ratings and reviews

Works perfect on my old Samsung I9000 and Cubot X6. Only drawback: it has to run constantly in the foreground with the screen always activated, so it makes your phone getting hot, which is not recommendable. And it's a pity the fullscreen view is not available in eWeLink for these cameras.

The app needs the ability to remotely turn the phones LED flash on and off so you can see in the dark. You should make the app work with the screen turned off. They is no reason to keep it on. Should have the ability to get motion and sound alerts in the main eWeLink app and be able to use them in Automations. I have removed this app. Alfred Camera is free and works much better.

Does not work at all! No wonder it has low score. I have 4 ewelink accounts, and for each it gives response: Login failed! Tried on 2 different phones (android 5.1 and 9), without succes. So one can't login and thus can't use it. I opened the ticket but after 2 weeks they closed it without any response. Uninstalling.
