Home monitoring gear and app for remote viewing from any mobile device


Y-cam Solutions Ltd recently announced the Y-cam HomeMonitor app for Apple and Android devices, allowing users to watch live or recorded events from their HomeMonitor cloud camera directly on their mobile device.

Launched in early January at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the Y-cam HomeMonitor is the latest Wi-Fi video monitor service that makes it easier for people to monitor their home, loved ones and belongings from any device, anywhere. Uniquely, HomeMonitor is the only web video monitoring service that allows users to record footage from their cameras online for free, with no monthly subscription required.

The Y-cam HomeMonitor app mirrors the features available from the web dashboard, allowing users to control their HomeMonitor system and interact with multiple cameras at once. Users can either watch live footage or an archive of recorded clips, which are recorded when movement is detected such as from a front door, driveway, child’s room, etc.



Similar to accessing the HomeMonitor system online, the app provides alerts customizable to the user’s preferences. The app is suitable for iPhone and iPad screens, automatically readjusting to the screen of the device it is used on to maximize the viewing area. The iOS version of the app is available now, and the Android version will be available beginning in March.

HomeMonitor is the first-ever wireless video monitoring service offering both indoor and outdoor cameras that are Wi-Fi enabled and provides true cloud-based viewing and recording. HomeMonitor Indoor and HomeMonitor Outdoor both come standard with the HomeMonitor free service package which includes 7 days of rolling free online cloud storage and unlimited email alerts. An optional upgrade package is available to increase storage time for a low yearly fee.

The Y-cam HomeMonitor App is compatible with iPhone, iPad and iPod touch with iOS 5.1 or later.

The Y-cam HomeMonitor app can be downloaded from Apple iTunes, while the complete HomeMonitor device is availabe at www.homemonitoronline.com.
