Turn phones sitting in drawers into useful cameras for rooms, counters, deliveries, pets, or temporary coverage.
Made for real homes and small businesses
Use your spare phone as a security camera in minutes.
Keep an eye on your home, baby, pets, loved ones, shop, or temporary site using Android phones you already own. Watch live, record important moments, take screenshots, and share a live view with people you trust.
Switch between phones, save screenshots, record short sessions, and share access only when needed.
Place a phone where life happens: nursery, pet area, front desk, stock room, garage, or renovation site.

FAQ
Questions people ask before they trust a camera setup.
Quick answers about setup, remote viewing, recording, and whether you need extra hardware to get started.
What counts as remote viewing?
Only viewing away from your local network uses remote viewing hours. Local USB and home Wi-Fi monitoring remain included in every plan.
Can I record and capture screenshots?
Yes. The viewer is designed for live watching, screenshot capture, and short recording sessions across all plans.
Do I need to buy new cameras?
No. CaIoT Camera is built around turning spare Android phones into useful security cameras.
Do I need a retail pass to get started?
No. You can sign in on the website, choose a plan, and keep it connected to your Google account. A retail pass is another way to fund or redeem a plan.
Where should I find my activation code after I pay?
You can find it in your account dashboard alongside your plan, billing status, and renewal date. In many cases, signing in with the same Google account can keep activation connected automatically.
