AnsimCam: Home Camera

Turn a spare phone into a home camera. Record when motion or other events are detected, then check the live view and saved clips from another phone on the same Wi-Fi. Video files are stored on the recording phone. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT The app does not automatically upload video files to a server. They stay on the recording phone, and the phones connect directly when you watch on the same Wi-Fi. You can also choose to save a clip to your gallery or share it with another app. RECORDING • Records continuously, or only when something is detected • Splits into files so one long recording never becomes one huge file • Burns the date and time into the video itself • Set a storage limit — the oldest unprotected videos are deleted in turn, and protected ones never are DETECTION • Motion, sound and bumps to the camera • Optionally recognise people, babies, dogs and cats, and save only for those • Sound is never recorded — only its level is measured, then discarded • Faces are only located on screen, never identified, stored or sent WATCHING FROM ANOTHER PHONE • See several cameras at once on the live board • Get an alert while the phones are connected — sent phone to phone, not through a server • Start and stop recording remotely, and change that camera's settings • Quiet hours, and per-camera alerts you can turn off WHAT IT DOES NOT DO The app does not automatically upload video files to a server. It does not identify anyone. It does not record sound. It does not know what moved — motion is a change in brightness, and the app says so rather than guessing. Two phones on the same Wi-Fi are free.

- Free plan: small banner ads on the Home, Library, Devices and Settings screens. Never on recording, live view or playback, and never full-screen. Any paid plan removes them. - Exclusion zones: paint areas of the preview (windows, TVs) that motion detection should ignore. - Export: save a video to the gallery or share it to another app. Exporting copies; the original stays. - Scheduled recording: save only on chosen days and hours while the camera is in standby.
