Do you have a spare Android phone @home? If your answer is Yes, you can put it to use as a security camera to safeguard your home against unforeseen situations. Security cameras are a must for homes these days but most of us feel that it is very expensive to purchase and have them installed. You can now use your old Android phone as a security camera. This is how you can turn your old smartphone into a home security camera.
- Download a Security Camera App on your old phone from Play Store.
- Once you download the App, register on the app with your Google Account or by creating an account. Some of the Apps offer both view and recorder options. That means you can record from your old phone and view from another device i.e the phone that you currently use or from your computer.
- Choose a spot to position your camera. Usually prefer to put the camera where you keep valuables.
- Mount and power your Security camera(old smartphone). Streaming video is very power-intensive, and the phone will be on 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. To prevent the phone from dying due to low battery, you will need to position it close to a power source.
