View camera feed in Live mode (Android, iOS)
To view a camera feed in Live mode, navigate to the Cameras tab and tap a relevant camera. To search for a camera, use one of the options described in the Navigate through cameras article.
The live video feed from the chosen camera will play in HD quality on the player, unless the camera only supports SD or your settings specified in the Settings section are different. In case a live feed isn’t available for any reasons, you’ll see a notification.
When in Live mode, pay attention that the camera may have been added in a different time zone. As a result, the system time displayed on the camera and the timeline might vary. For details, see the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) article.
For intercom cameras with Live viewing restrictions set by the administrator (for more details, see the View and edit an intercom section > the General data tab), you can access video only during a call and 30 seconds after the call is completed.
