How can I use my smartphone as a CCTV?

You can use your smartphone as a CCTV camera by using a dedicated surveillance app or software. Here are the general steps:

  1. Download a surveillance app: There are many surveillance apps available for Android, such as RTSP Camera and Home Security Camera. Download and install the app on both your smartphone (as a camera).
  2. Set up the camera: Place your smartphone in a stable position, such as on a tripod or a table, so that it can capture the area you want to monitor. Make sure the camera is positioned correctly and has a good view of the area.
  3. Start monitoring: Once the camera is set up, you can start monitoring the live feed from the SmartVision Software. You can also configure the app to send you alerts if it detects motion or other activity in the monitored area.
It's important to note that using your smartphone as a CCTV camera may not provide the same level of security and functionality as a dedicated CCTV system. However, it can be a useful option for monitoring a specific area or for temporary surveillance needs.
