To review files on a computer, pull the SD card, plug it into a Windows or Mac computer, and use VLC Media Player for playback

Select the time frame you desire to pull from the memory card
You may click any video file to “Play”
Files can also be deleted by selecting the trash can icon

Live Stream:

When at the main page, tap the camera to start the live stream. The camera may require a moment to connect, especially if your phone is connected to a cellular service.
When viewing the live stream, keep the phone upright in order to see all the options, or flip the phone on the side to view a full screen.
The camera icon at the bottom left will take a snapshot photo of the live stream and save it to the application memory.
Tapping the video camera icon will start a video recording.
The square icon will make the camera go full screen along with showing the other options normally on the screen when viewing the live stream with the phone in an upright position.
The Switching icon turns on or off the night vision if your model camera has night vision. Otherwise, it will go black and white without help from IR night vision.
The SD at the bottom of the screen is for adjusting the video resolution of the live stream, with options from 1080p, 720p, 640p, and 480p. If using cellular service, “480p” will provide the smoothest video.
