Turn Iphone To Security Camera

Using this to turn my iPhone into a live stream camera. No issues using three of them at a time.

Loving the new case. The security the loop provides helps me take better advantage of the iPhone Pro Max camera.

Simple installation. If you have Xfinity Advanced Security, turn it off using their app before adding the cameras to your wifi network, then turn the security back on. Love the automatic tracking feature with using either the motion or human detection. Have one installed in a detached structure with no HVAC System here in Michigan with no temperature related issues. Cameras also work very well viewing out the window.

The outside security lights around our house are switched from the master bedroom.  Whenever I take the dogs out at night I had to walk halfway through the house to turn the lights on.  Now I just use Alexa or the KASA app on my phone to turn them on or off.  Installed just as the instructions showed - easy and it works great.  You can still use the switch manually in the bedroom if you happen to be there.

with this on my tripod i can turn camera

Works very well. Great for the security of the camera

Add these to your camera strap for extra security.

Ball was stuck and won't turn at first, but realized it just needed more initial torque and then it turned properly. This little tripod does the intended job of holding my iphone and allowing me to make photos at a distance with the included remote control. I don't know if I would trust the magnets to hold my iPhone all all metal surfaces as the iPhone is quite heavy and the feet can slip on slick surfaces. However I have not used it extensively yet.

This is my new “must carry” device! Hang on to the end of this review, I have a suggestion for Garmin. This thing works perfectly - I love the way check in messages are supplied with a map of your current loc - brilliant! Battery life is excellent as is signal acquisition. I own an iPhone 14 with satellite SOS but wanted the InReach as a “rugged” backip and to send “non-emergency” texts which the iPhone can’t in satellite mode. In fact I like it so much I told an older friend who has had heart trouble about it. He lives on a farm without cell service and the InTeach can get him help in an emergency he otherwise had no access to! SO! Here is my suggestion for Garmin (and 1st time users). I read all of the reviews and most if not all of the low ratings (undeserved) had to do with problems initializing the device. To avoid problems START, STEP 1.0 is GO TO EXPLORE.GARMIN.COM and SET UP YOUR ACCOUNT FIRST!!! You only need to turn the device on to obtain the IMEI and device codes for registration - do EVERYTHING ELSE on your smartphone or PC. After you set up your account, (should take less than 5 minutes) turn on the InReach, walk outside and wait for it to activate. Again should take just a few minutes! It is my opinion that if Garmin emphasized this sequence (rather than simply stating “you need an active account to use the device”) there would be less confusion and more user satisfaction. Thank you Garmin for an amazingly compact layer of security!!

I thought about building something like this a few times before I got my iPhone. It steps up the voltage so power can be transferred which takes some power to do that. It has an efficient design so it doesn’t use much power for itself when sourcing power. You have to make sure it’s turnt off when not being used or it might not turn itself off. I seldom charge my iPhone above 80%. I’m sure it would charge it at least twice from 20% to 80%. I used it to charge both my AirPods and keypad which have small, delicate batteries and felt safe about them even though I manually turn the charge cycle off. It’s handy to be able to charge and use both one or two batteries at the same time. It looks well built and with good quality parts so it should last long. I liked it rate off so I bought two more. Now I can get more out of my batteries by inputting and outputting power at the same time and designating batteries in a more predictable usage and efficient use of them. It’s not perfect but is very good. The batteries aren’t completely independent in the compartments but don’t seem to leak power. Sometimes, when placing two batteries in, the second battery can falsely make the level of the first battery go up a notch, (25%), which might mean the energy transfer between them is from an original voltage differential of less than around 0.6V.
