Many people in France have an old Android mobile that they no longer use. When you have a mobile that you no longer use, several options are available to you, such as selling it. Although there are people who don't want to sell it, but they are looking to give it a new use, something that companies like Samsung are also looking to promote. One of those uses is to make it a security camera.
We can convert our old Android mobile to other devices through some applications. We have already done this with a GPS locator for the car, but we can also turn it into a security camera to use in our house. There are three apps for this.
Security Camera Alfred
Alfred is probably one of the best known apps for converting your old Android phone into a security camera. It is an application that gives us all the functions that we need in a camera for monitoring our home, in addition to being very easy to configure (it only takes a few minutes). The functions that this application provides us with are:
You will need to install the app on your current mobile and the one you want to use as a camera. On the other mobile, you can see the image that the old mobile is recording at any time, in addition to receiving alerts (both in the form of a notification and an email) when motion is detected. Alfred is a simple app to turn your mobile into a security camera.
The app is free to download, although there are a lot of ads inside. If you want to remove ads and also be able to record in HD, you'll need to upgrade to the premium version, which has an annual plan for just $2.49 per month.
AtHome Camera: Home Security
AtHome is another application that will turn your old Android mobile into a security camera for your home. This application has functions similar to the previous one, to ensure good monitoring in your home. We can record all day, even at night, thanks to its special night mode, as well as detect intruders thanks to its facial recognition technology. If motion is detected, the app will issue alerts to the phone.
It also has a microphone, so that we can communicate with this room in which the mobile is recording. The recording made on the old Android mobile can be seen from another phone, but also from the computer. Additionally, the app promises great privacy, as all connections between your phone and the stream are encrypted.
The application is free to download on Android. Inside there are a large number of advertisements, which we can eliminate with its paid version, which also gives us access to additional functions.
Havre
The third application that we can use in this case is Haven, which can turn our old Android mobile into a security camera. This application takes advantage of the device sensors to monitor a certain space at home, having a motion, sound, vibration and lighting detector. This will detect at any time the entry of intruders into this room, allowing you to be aware of them.
The application allows us to choose the camera of the mobile that we want to use, to get the most out of it. It also allows us to set timers, record certain moments if we want. In its configuration, it allows you to configure a large number of options to use it in the best possible way.
Haven is an application that we can download for free on Android. Also, there are no purchases or advertisements of any kind inside.
