Turn your old iPod into a security camera

Turn your old iPod into a security camera

 

A free iOS app that lets you convert a spare iPod Touch, iPad, or iPhone into a video surveillance camera. Basically, it works like an IP camera without requiring a separate purchase.

Steps:-

1. Download the Manything app on your iOS device or devices.

2. Launch the app and register through Facebook or email.

 

3. Log in and select "Record using this device" on the device you want use as your at-home security cam.

4. Select "View my cameras" on your second Apple device for remote live monitoring and to receive push notifications and email alerts on-the-go. This is optional, since you can also use the Manything Web app to watch video live, access recorded clips, and make adjustments to your settings.

5. You can either stop here (and get started using Manything's basic video monitoring on your iOS device) or launch IFTTT to create the Manything/Belkin WeMo Switch.

6. Select Manything as your "If" and the Belkin WeMo Switch as your "Then" to create the following recipe: "If my iPod Touch/iPad/iPhone detects motion, then turn my WeMo Switch on then off."
