AirBeam Video Surveillance

AirBeam consistently works via IP and that’s exactly what I need. Epoccam, OBS Camera wasted my money and time with terrible connection problems.

Works great on an old iPhone (5s I think 🤔) as a puppy monitor. You can adjust bandwidth remotely if you have a poor connection and adjust digital aperture (or really just “brightness”) by setting the focus via the remote phone (i.e. touch dark area on screen and it refocuses and brightens). Overall, pretty solid app 👍

App works on an iPhone 6s acting as the camera monitored by an iPad 4 and a 2012 MBP. Tremendous lag using the AirBeam apps on the monitoring devices, this is easily fixed by accessing the IP address of the phone in the browsers on the monitors. No lag in the browser. Successfully controlled camera shutter and video capture remotely from the iPad. Have not tested audio. Have not tested further camera settings control. Motion sensor didn’t seem to immediately intuitively work but haven’t thoroughly tested so by no means conclude it doesn’t work. The iPhone did not provide the correct IP address to access at first. After going into settings to get the IP the IP overlay updates to the correct one. It is rather seamless, certainly works and is worth the money. More features than I need (just wanted a remote shutter for the phone). Tons of features. Read the detailed review from February 2019 (using the app to answer the far away phone on the nearby iPad-neat!).
