Does this camera allow you to ask for a picture on command from your cell?

No asking for pictures but it does take great pictures and sends them automatically to 4 phone numbers or emails.
801906
Yes You can text it a command and it will return a photo. From Experience this process takes about 90 seconds to receive the photo from the time the text is sent to the camera.

Yes it can. And when you get the pic and see an animal...you can switch to 45 sec video mode from your phone. Had a lot of fun with that feature last year.

To add to my earlier comment. Customer service is excellent with this company. When you call you actually get to talk to a human and so far they have been very helpful with my setting up my camera for my own personal taste. All of the staff is proficient in the set up and for more difficult questions about reception areas their technical person is great.

Yes it does. Send #500# to it. I'm using AT&T; at their extremities so it's hit and miss but I'm pretty happy with it.

No. But it displays a flashy screen. This way I know when the camera is out of range.

Excellent! Trust me. You can even take selfies by remote control with your cell phone.

The camera sends pictures to either an email address, or as a text message to a telephone number. You do not have to call to retrieve photos.

In your list of apps there is an app called camera. Once you open camera the "joystick" that they refer to is the circular button at the bottom of the phone just below the screen. Press that to take a photo

You only have to pick up the phone and press the picture button! It's super easy. I purchased this phone for my mother who has dementia. She uses it daily!

Nope. Once you've set it (turn it on), as I recall, everything is automatic. As with any new touch-screen device it may take awhile for you to get the hang of the menu operation but once you've played with it for a day or two you'll have it down and some of the features are not the kinda stuff that a "regular" point-and-shoot photographer should be playing with anyway....they won't help produce a better shot in the context of how I use the camera, at least. There are about ten settings I even care about and once I've set them, I pretty much forget about them. Hope this is useful to you.

Yes....hold your power button and the volume down button at the same time, wait a second and it takes a pic. I just found it out. The pic then goes into your gallery

It is an intercom and does not record. It requires the button at the door to be pressed for activation. It will then display what ever is in front of the camera

I believe it does but have not looked nor activated the function. This is a highly functional updated camera, so I think it has this feature.

I don't think it does. I brought mine home today, and I've been playing with the settings - I haven't seen anything about setting picture-in-picture. I had also read/heard somewhere from someone else that it does not have that feature, which is fine for me.

Yes you can. You can operate the camera remotely if you put it in wifi mode. It's a bit of a hassle to set up, but it does work!
2201788
Yes and yes you just have to manually put the APN settings to receive pic message
1848257
No it can not. It is strictly manuel on and off and pic. For the money it is an Awsome little "spy toy".

You can send selected picture from your phone via e-mail or Bluetooth. You must buy a Bluetooth USB separately, but it it supported.

with the foscam app, there is a button to capture video or take a still picture on demand. I just sent someone to http://wrice.blogspot.com/2013/06/recording-surveillance-video-from.html regarding setting up video capture as well from a computer.
