Product Usage Instructions

First Use:

1. Download the app: Scan the QR code or enter the URL: truelife.eu/57721/app.
2. Register or log in: If you don’t have an account, register by pressing the “Sign Up” button. Fill in your email address, select your country/region, read and agree to the Privacy Policy, and get a verification code via email. Set your password and go to the app. If you already have an account, select “Log In,” enter your credentials, and log in.
3. Pairing your camera with the app: Plug the power adapter connector into the camera’s input and the adapter into a mains socket. The camera will start searching for a home router to connect to. In the app, select “Add Device,” choose “Security & Video Surveillance” in the left column, then select “Smart Camera (Wi-Fi).” Make sure the indicator on the camera is flashing quickly, select your Wi-Fi network (2.4 GHz), enter the password, and proceed.
4. Pairing process: Hold the QR code on your display in front of the camera lens at a distance of 15 to 20 cm. When pairing is successful, you will hear audio prompts indicating the connection to the router and internet. Select “I Heard a Prompt” and wait until the device is added. Finally, select “Done” to complete the setup.

Common Problems:

• Ensure the camera is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network (2.4 GHz) as it does not support 5 GHz.
• Make sure the router uses WPA2 (AES/TKIP) or WPA3 encryption, not WEP. DHCP should be enabled for IP address allocation, and zero-handoff should be disabled.
• Avoid distance issues by keeping the router, smartphone, and camera close to each other during configuration.
• If pairing fails, try uninstalling the app, restarting your smartphone and camera, and following the instructions again.

   COMMON PROBLEMS

   • Make sure the camera is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network. The camera does not support 5 GHz, only 2.4GHz.

   • The camera supports WPA2 (AES/TKIP) or WPA3, not WEP encryption. The router must also have DHCP enabled for IP address allocation and zero-handoff disabled.

   • The Wi-Fi password must not contain special characters: ~!@#$%^*-.

   • When configuring, make sure the router, smartphone and camera are as close as
     possible to each other. When pairing, you must be less than 5 m from the router.

   • If you are still unable to pair, uninstall the app, restart your smartphone and
     camera, and do everything again according to the instructions.

   • Other issues when pairing include a weak Wi-Fi signal, interference from near- by networks, or incompatible smartphones (IOS 7 and above/Android 4.0 and above).

SECURITY AGAINST HACKING
The app uses a five-layer security technology to ensure the security of smart de-vices without the risk of information being compromised: military-grade AES data encryption, triple-check authorization and authentication, two-code dynamic key, and https channel encryption guarantee the security of network traffic.

Note: To increase protection against hacking, set the strongest possible password on your Wi-Fi network. The password should consist of at least eight characters with a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers. Do not use special characters „~!@#$%^*-“, otherwise the camera will not be able to pair.
