The first impression

AtHome Camera is set to monitor the device, while when it is imperative to register. Only then opens the main screen (an English language interface), where you can immediately choose to connect to a camera. Available surveillance on PC / Mac, smartphone / tablet or through a conventional IP-camera. This supports both Wi-Fi-network, and 3G or 4G for remote video viewing.
 

by the way, the application can be purchased via an IP-discount. Another obvious advertising I have not noticed.
 

At the bottom of the screen there are three interesting key – my camera, cloud storage and profile. From the very beginning we, as easy to guess, we are in “my chambers.” The “cloud” we are told how to keep records in the latter (more talk during testing), and the profile can participate in affiliate program, send invites to friends and earn points to pay for the same “cloud”.
 

By the way, here you can also join a guild developers and beta testers. In general, it is enough to open communication and interaction program, which is now very fashionable.
 

there are no settings in the client monitor not. Apparently, these things can be found in the AtHome: Video Streamer. Well, and establish it, but not just another mobile device, but also on a laptop running Windows 10, to complete the picture, so to speak. With regard to the first impression, it is wary satisfied. It is unlikely that such an idea promises to failure, but who knows. But first look at the system resources.
 

Test

The rest AtHome Camera eats a lot – 121.3 MB of RAM at a 0.1-percent CPU utilization. This application is compatible with most versions of Android, and the system takes about 46 MB. It turns out that such a serious partner, who also requires a huge amount of permits that allow you to spy on if it wants the developer. On the other hand, what I could expect from the program for remote surveillance via IP-android-smartphone.
 

There will be a long walk around the bush, and immediately get down to business. Let’s start with the simplest – ligaments smartphone smartphone, that is, one unit will show the picture, and the second to remove the judges.
 

Remote video surveillance smartphone smartphone
 

First, install AtHome: Video Streamer Device donor. It weighs a little miracle is about six megabytes, and at rest consumes a measly 46 MB of RAM with zero CPU load.
 

in order to connect two devices to “streamer “donor is assigned a CID-code, as well as the user name and password. At the same time to simplify the synchronization is possible to log in via QR-code, generated randomly. To be sure, I use good old “manual” method.
 

So, AtHome Camera click the “+” in the the upper right corner and add the device. By the way, in addition to the QR-code can also be used and auto search device in the network, which greatly simplifies the synchronization. However, I was interested in the “most remote” way, so log in via the CID.
 

All ! It appeared the device camera on the main screen, the status, battery level, date and time of broadcast. Immediately, you can start recording, mute, run the PPT (pressed and speak as through a loudspeaker), make a screen (cropping the desired area), photo, or turn on the backlight when the flashlight or flash is not present, then the screen (bright white background) will be used. By the way, only relevant for the front camera.
 

To my regret advertising still appeared, but unobtrusive. As for the records, it immediately goes to SD-card and stored in the library, which can be in the top right corner of the screen. Format – mp4. The average size of a five-minute video – 3 MB.
 

also, Automatic cleaning can be set, if they are more than one (40) days. No avtozatiraniya on the remaining free space, as it was at the IP Webcam, no, but it is a pity.
