To a point. Not many settings or options, but you can start and stop recording and playback on the phone app

Yes, you can. However, it is limited to record on and off.You cannot zoom in or out.

Hello Stephanie and thanks for the question. There is no remote and you would still have to take the pic by touching the phone. I hope this helps.

usually u can depending on the type of camera u have . just need the app, or software, usually can be found over internet for free. If you can send me the type camera u are, using I can locate what u need to set up, and email it to u.

I use ip cam viewer for andriod. But if your phone can view a foscam it should work for this.

The only external control of the camera that I am aware of is through an app on the smart phone. It can hook up via WiFi and a router or directly from the cam to the smart phone. An app called Panasonic Image App is used on the controlling device. I personally have not found a use for this and have had difficulty in getting a consistent connection but that could simply be as a result of my ignorance. From a video and still pic standpoint this is one awesome cam and I am completely happy with it.

Yes. I use Skype on mine. I only used the phone service. I haven't tried to use the cameras.

with the GoPro you set the timed image capture or if you have a GoPro Hero3 (or above) you can use the iPhone app to control the camera. For other cameras/iphone, you have to use a remote control or video function.

You can.That's basically how I set mine up.Call foscam support if you get stuck anywhere.Some find the portforwarding settings a bit confusing. Just fyi. Support is very helpful, they can remote access your pc if need be.

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?"

No. It uses a GoPro for the camera which has a video out and requires a video transmitter and a receiver on the ground. As far as hooking up to your phone.....good luck.

Hi there. I'm not sure, but the camera connects to WIFI and there is a free app that acts as a remote. Hope this helps. Dan

Yes, you can use the camera inside. You can also use your computer to access your camera. You can also use your smart phone and be notified when there is movement.

it is not plug and play, and the video goes to your harddrive. You also need a DYNDNs and set your router to a DMZ . If you want to access the cam from your smart phone, you need to have username and adress. The DYNDNS will take care of that for twenty bucks a year.

Yes you can, however its awkward because the phone does not have a front-facing camera.

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.
