Description

DVR.Webcam is a cloud-based DVR (digital video recorder) app that uses Apple's iCloud as its cloud storage. The app turns your iOS device into a cloud-based surveillance tool and monitoring tool that will stream and store live video from your device’s camera.

Unlike other cloud-based DVR solutions, the app does NOT require monthly fees to store your recording. It simply uses spare storage on your iCloud account.

The app supports the device’s built-in cameras, as well as IP cameras (MJPEG, JPEG, or H.264) on your network.

The app automatically records camera’s video (in the case of built-in camera, audio as well) and streams it over to your personal iCloud account. You can define X number of days to keep the DVR recordings in the cloud, and the software will automatically manage the storage for you.

You can view your DVR recordings stored on iCloud within the app itself. You can even view live recording remotely from web. For example, you can use one iOS device as the DVR recorder at home, and use another iOS device (or Windows or Mac computer) for remote viewing when you are away.

There is no need to configure firewall or router for remote viewing. Recording is secured within iCloud, and therefore it is still available even if your device is stolen.

The free app supports up to 8 hours of DVR recording. Unlimited recording can be upgraded via in app purchase.

* Built-in camera support with audio.

Good for live view

This is the only app for Apple TV I have found that will allow me to view and record my three outdoor RTSP cameras all at the same time. I paid for the full version. The worst con about this app is that it won’t delete recordings and before long, all of my icloud space is used up unless I go into settings and manually delete all data. Also the fact that it records in 2 minute segments that will not play one after the other is another problem. The adjacent section will not load. Usually, If I mess with it long enough, I eventually find the segment that I need. I notice that this app has not been updated in 2 yrs and my emails to support go unanswered, but right now, it is the best that I can find. If the developers ever return to work, I suggest that they fix these two problems and also add the ability to view each of the 3 cameras one at a time in full screen. The playback controls could be made more user friendly too !

Terrible...

Save your money. Crashes all the time. No response from support. Waste of $10 that I'll never see again.

Its using 2gb on my iCloud account

I downloaded this app beacause I went on vacation and wanted to monitor my hone from my iPad and kinda worked, but video took years to load and now I cannot delete a 2gb file from my iCloud account and I don't even know what it is. I emailed the developer but gave a bunch of directions that didn't work. My iCloud accout is full because of this app.
