App Description

** The app is FREE with 8 hours of continuous recording. You can extend it to unlimited hours with an in-app purchase.

DVR.Webcam – Google Drive Edition is a plug-and-play solution to personal surveillance for audio/video recording. It is a cloud-based DVR (digital video recorder) app that uses Google Drive as its cloud storage. You run the app on your mac that serves as the DVR station. It will let you record video from your cameras, and view time-lapse recording remotely.

Unlike other cloud-based camera services, this app does NOT charge you monthly. It simply uses your spare Google Drive storage for the camera recording.

When in use, the app automatically records camera’s video (in the case of webcams, audio as well) and streams it over to your Google Drive. You can define X number of days to keep the DVR recordings in the cloud, and the app will automatically manage the storage for you.

Viewing the DVR is entirely cross-platform and web-based. To view your DVR, simply visit http://dvr.webcam website from any computer or mobile device, and use our online DVR viewer with Chrome browser. There is no need to configure firewall or router for remote viewing, or using a 3rd party viewing app.
