I do not have a surveillance system today and only wanted this to check on my dog during the day - he stays in a crate. Do I have to buy anything else besides the this camera to be able to program to my iPhone/iPad??

Yes! This camera connects to a receiver. You need Uniden Guardian Advanced Wireless 7-Inch Screen Video Surveillance System with 2 Outdoor Cameras - Black (G755) by Uniden.

I got the app from the itunes store. I think it is alled ES Remote or something like that and it's free. I have a dedicated I-Pad Mini Retina that I use to control my entire system and it is like having a Control 4 controler pad that would cost over $1000 and does most of what I need.

HelloNot without port redirections & static WAN IP addresses on your router, or use of dynamic DNS.There are apps for iPhone but I'm not sure about other phones.I really wouldn't recommend this camera anyway, the light/dark auto-gain issue gives too many false alarms - even when viewing & the sun comes out, the picture flashes rapidly.Cheap product cheaply made. Avoid if possible.Cheers,Ashley

I have not found an app to put on my PC. I've had this camera for over 2 years and still can't find a PC app for it, only the smartphone app...if you find a PC app let me know. It's the easiest camera to setup with limited options BUT you trade options for easy setup. I have other cameras for more sophisticated stuff but this one is the best for simple setup and decent enough observation for simple stuff...pick your poison, all depends on what you're trying to watch. Hopefully they'll come up with a desktop app.

No. This camera must be connected to a dvr. You may be looking for an ip camera.

Look at YouTube has a very detailed video. I had to watch it a few times. The covert code black is an easier and better cam for the money.

This is only the camera. You would need cabling to a DVR surveillance system.

Use the foscam viewer app and download it for free from app store. You dont need port forwarding to view within the same network connected to the camera.

You can but you would need a dvr, usually its the dvr's software that allows you to be able to tap into it from your smart phone, tablet or computer. I'm not sure if you can do that without the dvr however you might try calling a surveillance store from the web that carries a similar camera to ask. Can't hurt!

You must connect to Y-cam on your computer, but at no charge. Then you download their app to your iphone. I will know more after my trip, then the motion sensor is activated, how well this works in Europe. This is separate from my other home security. I hope this was helpful to you. Well, I guess the answer is no.

Hi, I have it on the network and it streams to my Debian server running Zoneminder. It works OK for the money. If you have a decent recent version of linux (Ubuntu for instance) with java support in the browser, you can configure it on the browser just fine. I didn't try it with motion, but I see no reason not to work, since it works in Zoneminder. This is the url I user in zoneminder: http://&lt;username&gt;:&lt;password&gt;@&lt;ip&gt;/cgi/mjpg/mjpg.cgi Replace the stuff in &lt;&gt; with the proper info. I hope this helps. Even though this works fine, I would recommend you a better quality camera in the same price range, like the new D-Link. If you do a research, you can buy one with about $35 (http://www.ebay.com/itm/D-Link-Wireless-N-Network-Surveillance-Camera-W-iPhone-Remote-Viewing-DSC-930L-/360817167462?pt=US_Security_Cameras&hash=item5402610c66)

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.

You can plug it straight into your computer or iDevice. Both will recognize it and let you record without any additional equipment.

There is some code available online to program the Foscam to take snapshots when activated by a smartthings event, but I have not attempted to program the connection and it isn't just a plug and play like most connections. I use Foscam cameras in conjunction to my smartthings system, which is easy to setup and the app works well. If my Smartthings widget triggers an event I can quickly view my cameras from my mobile phone app and grab a real photograph or video capture that I know will be clear.

I use the iPhone app and it works great. You can download the app before you buy this model and they have a demo system you can test it.

Yes, the camera must be wireless and ON (transmitting) thanks! Sleuth Electronics LLC PS: to avoid false alarms you MUST turn OFF all electronic devices in the area such as cellphones, radios, TV, etc...because they transmit radio frequencies. It is important that you educate yourself on the proper way to use this item. In your case you may want to hire a PI that knows how to use this type of product. Good day.
