About this app

Use your regular phone as a Viewer and your old/spare phone as a Camera to guard your garage, car, or home for free! Set up your home security camera, senior care camera, or baby monitor in just 3-minutes!

FREE, STABLE, RELIABLE
The Swish Eye app can be used as a baby monitor to watch over your newborn or as a CCTV camera to keep your home safe. An Android phone can excellently act as a home security camera with motion detection, live streaming, and unlimited cloud storage.

SAFE, PORTABLE, EASY
Guard your home, room, caravan, or restaurant. No complex IP configuration is required to repurpose your Android device as a D-I-Y webcam, pet-/nanny cam, baby monitor, or CCTV camera. Watch from your camera from anywhere, anytime!

BEST FEATURES
▶ Motion detection (detect intruders)
▶ 24/7 HD video monitoring (real-time, anywhere)
▶ Smart alert (push and/or email notifications)
▶ Unlimited storage (cloud view)
▶ Video recording (auto-record motion events)
▶ Trust circle (share camera access)
▶ Works anywhere (Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G, 5G, LTE)
▶ Two-way audio (listen and talk in real-time)
▶ Low-light filter (see better in low light conditions)
▶ Passcode lock (keep your device safe)
▶ QR-code pairing (easy and fast setup)
▶ Remotely toggle camera (save battery)

UNLIMITED CLOUD STORAGE
Cloud storage allows you to store auto-recorded motion videos and images in the cloud. You can playback the footage on your main phone and use it as evidence to identify intruders or share lovely moments of your pets with friends and family!

GETTING STARTED
This app is easy-to-use and user-friendly. It takes only 3 minutes to set up your new baby monitor or security camera! You can use it with only one phone, or if you have another old device, it can be more comfortable to use that as a camera, and your main phone as a Viewer.

◼ Install this app on two or more devices.
◼ Sign in using Google or Email/Password on your viewer/regular phone. (This way, the Viewer device finds the camera)
◼ Click on "Add Camera" on the main screen.
◼ Scan the generated QR code with your spare/old phone by clicking "Pair up with QR Code" on the login screen.
◼ Congratulations! You've managed to DIY your home security camera or pet/baby monitor! You deserve peace of mind!

TIP: Connect your device to a power outlet. You should be able to monitor with the screen turned off to conserve battery.

💠 We support legacy Android devices from version 4.1 (API 16) and up!


SMART, CONVENIENT, ECO-FRIENDLY
This brilliant app turns your spare/old phone into a complete security camera for real-time monitoring. You do not have to buy expensive IP cameras to enjoy peace of mind during road trips and more!

Deter intruders immediately by speaking through the Walkie-Talkie or triggering a loud siren alarm.

2 chief disappointments in this app — the highly unanticipated and incredibly frequent disconnects and random "going offline" while I'm mid-live feed and trying to listen to something important, as well as the inability to use my wireless ear buds for the audio while watching live feeds. It JUST won't let you. That alone, was unfortunately my personal deal breaker. Redeeming notes - easy to use and has a lot of options many other apps like this don't offer at all.

This has a few minor bugs as far as alarm sounds and the like. The main reason to uninstall is after a very short amount of time a notification pops up and you have to reset it. The whole point of having a web camera is to be having it running all the time what's the point of having a timeout and saying some excuse that is is using broadband and it's expensive. Again this defeats the whole purpose of having a webcam. So this will get uninstalled and we will find another app

In the free version, you can watch live from a camera for 30 mins straight. In the Premium version, this limit is much higher. Our server costs necessitate this limit to ensure fair usage for all users. TIP: Try the open beta version, it's appreciated by customers :)

It will not send notifications to your phone telling you that there has been movement unless the app is open on your phone. That defeats the purpose of this whole app. I was using Alfred camera before this and it was more intuitive. This one has been a little less intuitive.

Wrong statement! You can receive notifications even when the app is not open. We are currently investigating why this does not work for you. There may be some setting on your mobile device that prevents the app from receiving notifications in the background. Please be patient as we work to fix this issue as effectively as possible. Greetings.
