About this app

Turn the phone in your drawer into a CCTV camera.

PhoneCam streams video and audio from your phone's camera and microphone to a PC on the same Wi-Fi network, in real time. No server, no account, no cloud - it works inside your home or office right away.

■ How to use
1. Tap 'Start Server' in PhoneCam.
2. Enter the address shown on screen (rtsp://...) into a receiver app on your PC.
3. Watch the live view on your PC and record whenever you want.

With PhoneCam Recorder, our dedicated PC program, you don't even need to type the address - it finds cameras automatically and shows up to 4 of them on one screen. Download it free from our website.

■ Before you start
· Your phone and PC must be on the same Wi-Fi router.
· The app runs in landscape orientation only.
· Long sessions use a lot of battery, so keep the phone plugged in.
· The app will guide you through the battery optimisation setting needed for stable long recordings.

PhoneCam is free and shows a banner ad at the bottom of the screen. There are no in-app purchases.
