Is there a "Mobile App" for these cameras so you can use your smartphone to check the camera? I didn't see anything specifically mentioned.

If you phone the foscam tech support desk they will log into your pc remotely and set them up for you or they will talk you through the setup process. There's a bunch of technical stuff that we would never have figured out if they had not helped us.

Yes there is free app you can download for either Apple or Android - Search for Foscam in the Market Place or the App Store and you will find one with the logo on it. There is a free app but a lot of them you have to pay for as well. The free app works well for me.

Foscam has a few on the appstore. I personally use BlueIris3. It is a fantastic program. You have to purchase the software and also the app, but it is well worth it. There are a lot of customization options with the program and app. Very satisfied with BlueIris3 and their technical support. You don't have to be a computer programmer to figure it out.

I use an Apple app called "Baby Monitor" on my iPhone. As the name suggests, it was originally intended for monitoring a baby by video cam, but I find that that it works great for my purpose. I had another highly rated app but didn't like it as much because, although powerful, the app was sluggish and the video quality on my iPhone wasn't that great and it was overly complicated with a lot more bells and whistles than I really needed. "Baby Monitor", on the other hand is a relatively basic app which doesn't try to do everything, but does the things that it does do very well with easy to use controls.

I tried using the smartphone app for android and just could not get it to work (Evo 4G), an issue that seemed to be common based on forum posts. I just downloaded IP Cam Viewer from the Play store and it worked flawlessly after a simple setup. So if you run into the same issue, just grab that app and you're gtg.

There are free an paid apps that work with the camera. There isn't a Wansview native app but they use common communication protocols. And you can always use a native browser as well.

Hi, it provide feature to do monitoring with camera using WiFi. I has 3 options - direct, indoor, outdoor. I checked direct and indoor and galaxy s3 and ipad (iOs7) - works great. You have to download everio sync2 soft. Then do some simple setting with you camera (connect to home router for indoor) and you can see camera image on your device. You can start recording and make picuters from phone or tablet. Very nice feature. For outdoor monitoring - you should have external static IP. Didn't try this option.

You can put the app on a number of phones to monitor the camera. But having the camera now for two weeks i would not recommend it. The user interface and application are not highly functional and I have been unable to find a way to get it to capture motion events. The documentation stinks. I was trying to buy something cheaper than a Dropcam but I am afraid I will have to shell out more money for that.

I don't know, James, because we sent the camera back! Something that only records for 10 seconds when it activates was not what we needed. We got a netcam instead! Goggling the camera model doesn't turn up anything?

I don't have that particular app, but I have some other camera apps, and it only seems to work with the basic iphone camera (not my other apps) at least in my limited experience.

The camera has motion detection built in but the notification is via email (it actually sends a few screenshots of what set it off in the notification which is nice). If you have your email setup with push notifications or periodic fetching then it'll pop up on your phone that way.

You probably want to use a laptop/desktop for the initial setup, but afterwards,yeah, you can just use your phone's browser to go to the 'mobile view' page, or as someone else said, there are apps that can interface with the camera as well. I use CamViewer on my iPhone and iPad.

I have not used my cell phone for this purpose but I understand you can. For info, go to www.foscam.com > Support & Help > FAQ and see question "Which kind of mobile phone can view your camera?"

There is a built in camera at the top of the screen but I don't think there's a bluetooth app built in - I just searched for it on mine and didn't find it but I'm sure you can download the app if there is one.

I'm not sure I never got mine to work. Wish I was more help. the camera may be ok but they sent it with third party software that didn't work. I googled for an answer and found lots of issues with the same problem and other people. I downloaded it from the mfg site and installed it. Still didn't work and after investigation it is a cloud type software that I felt was a security risk. I would buy from a reputable company.

Yes and you can download an app to your smartphone to operate the camera remotely.

Yes. There are a couple of apps with the camera that are very functional for uploading to smartphone, iPad etc.

Call I go or go to their site, they probably have a solution....they don't seem to have a tip but is it a universal micro USB or ?can't have tips for everything...cameras are still proprietary, at least cell phones have got somewhat better...
