I've tried many IP cameras, configuring them, syncing then up with different surveillance software, etc. I was blown away by the simplicity of live cam. Install in your old phone, set the sensitivity and your done! Synology takes care of the rest: adding the new camera, storing the video feed, and it just worked! No lengthy setup, trial and error, just seamless. Of course, the two free camera limit remains, but now that it works so well, it might be worth the effort expanding the license. Great job!

What trash. Pixel 2xl (android 11) can't pair, just says operation failed when pairing (Even though it knows that I'm out of cam licenses??!). Using same otp code pairs with second phone just fine. While on the second phone, Pixel 8 pro, the image is stretched (what year is it that this is still a thing?) and the app crashes the second the record button is pressed (with all permissions granted).

don't bother installing, it doesn't work as it's supposed to. 1. Synology server at home, you have max 2 free IP camera license, extra 60 euros per licence, and these can be bought only from dealers. 2. the surveillance cam App identified ( Samsung S9 and Samsung A52s) no problems 3. the Synology live cam app is designed by a child, with hardly any configuration possible . 4. App and the screen needs to be LEFT ON for the app to work ( locked phones it stops working)
