By ignoring the options provided in the pop-up, you can utilize your mobile network data, and the camera will continue to function properly. If you want to reset the network settings, forget the currently connected Wi-Fi hotspot and reconnect.
C. Most other APPs will not allow using mobile network data while using APP.
D.

(Some Android devices need to CLOSE WLAN+ or WLAN security detection, or it will not connect automatically and can only connect every time manually.)

FAQ

Q1: Why can't I find the Wi-Fi hotspot signal of the camera?

A1: First, check if the camera antenna is installed correctly. Check whether the camera still has the remaining power. If the blue power indicator is often on, it means that there is remaining power. If only one lamp is flickering, it means that the camera is out of power.

Q2: When I first enter the app, it prompts for many permissions. Is my privacy secure?

A2: You don't need to worry about your privacy because the app does not connect to the internet. All the data is stored locally on your phone.

Q3: Why is the Wi-Fi signal of the camera very weak?

A3: Please make sure the antenna of the camera is tightly installed, and the antenna does not touch the metal because the metal blocks the Wi-Fi signal. You can also try to replace the camera antenna with extended antenna to expand the Wi-Fi transmission distance of the camera.

Q4: Why do I connect the camera with different mobile phones, some mobile phones can display the camera image well, while some mobile phones have delay?

A4: When we develop this camera, we bought most of the mobile phones on the market for testing. Finally, we found that the Wi-Fi module of some mobile phones is relatively weak and cannot withstand high-quality image output, so the image will be delayed.

Q5: Can one app simultaneously view the footage of two identical cameras?

A5: Can't view at the same time, but you can view the screen transmission of different cameras by switching the camera Wi-Fi.

Q6: Why have I connected the camera's Wi-Fi, or can't I see the camera transmission?

Q7: Why is the screen delay, loss of signals or frozen?

A7: Please close the Bluetooth function of your device and some other applications to reserve enough memory for camera APP. Check whether the antenna of the camera is secure and ensure that the antenna should not be exposed to metal. At the same time, avoid using a camera in a lot of Wi-Fi signals, because the Wi-Fi signal is easily disturbed.
