can you use your cellphone to correspond with the camera? I want the camera for upstairs playroom/intercom but want to be able to talk to my daughter without having a camera whoever I'm located while viewing hers.

Yes, you can use an android or iPhone as an intercom with this camera. There is a Foscam-branded App, but my preference is one called IP Cam Viewer Pro (available for both types of phone). Read the reviews of each app to see which will be best for you.

I have not been able to get this camera to work on my iPhone. Customer Service has been working to resolve the issue and they can see my camera on their iPhone, but I cannot see it on my phone or my husband's.

I never could understand the camera on the watch, adding another camera which would take poorer pics than the cell phone? Minor inconvenience at worst. The NEO has NO camera. The Gear DOES have a camera. REALLY COOL FEATURE COMPARED TO OTHER WATCHES IS THE NEO HAVING A SPEAKER; ALLOWING CALLS TO BE MADE AND RECEIVED FROM YOUR WATCH. Shades of Dick Tracy! Would much rather be 'talking' to my watch than walk around with a speaker hung on my ear. davzway

Yes you can but it doesn't help at all. The camera is just horrible. I played with it for awhile trying to get some sort of quality picture out of it and it never happened.

I use and app on my iPhone called iCam. I have multiple cameras at my home and work and all of them show up on my iOS devices. Additionally I can choose to record motion event and or send me text notifications when there is motion. Works flawlessly.

Yes. You can use your phone as usual - everything is accessible including the camera.

You have to set up email addresses for the camera to send info to your cell phone, etc. Unless you have the instructions, its too complicated to explain. I haven't done it at this time and have no personal experience to pass on to you.

Hi Michael, You can rotate the camera to take selfies and family photos! I have photos that I will add here so that you can see examples. Thanks! Shirley Update: I can't add the photos here, please let me know if you would like me to send you the pics. Thanks!

It would work great, however, legally I don't know if they would allow it. Things to consider are if her room has a internet connection (not just wifi)? You will need that to setup the camera. You may be better off with an IP or wireless camera. For those you only need wifi to connect to the internet. They are not as easy to setup though.

You can use your smartphone like a remote. There is an app you download and allows you to do Wi-Fi connection between camera and phone.

I am almost never close to the monitor or know that it has this feature. When I set this system up, and I have set up two systems in different places, I do not recall activating or that it has this feature. Otherwise, I love it and sometimes take the monitor out of the base to make observations. Being able to look in on both systems from my cell phone is a plus. Using my iPhone I can take pictures of my observations.

Why is the camera so big 1026? That is why I choose this one for my daughter. I knew she would not like a phone with the such a big back camera. By the way is there a front camera?

If you really want to use the camera I would suggest buying a card. They are not expensive, as a matter of fact I always keep an extra card or two handy just in case. The alternative is returning and waiting for them to resend. :)

No, But I would find a different camera system if it is any where near wi-fi or it will step on it and mess wifi up.
