The eufyCam 2 Pro transmits its video feed to your smartphone through a secure and local connection that prioritizes privacy and user control. Here’s how the feed is transmitted to the app on your phone: HomeBase 2 Connectivity: The eufyCam 2 Pro works in conjunction with the HomeBase 2, which connects to your home network using an Ethernet cable or Wi-Fi. The cameras send their video feed to the HomeBase. Local Communication: The cameras and HomeBase communicate locally over a secure and encrypted connection. This setup avoids reliance on external servers for primary video storage and processing. App Access: Using the eufySecurity app installed on your device, you connect to the HomeBase 2 to watch live feeds or view stored footage. The app connects securely to the HomeBase when both are on the same Wi-Fi network, or it establishes a secure remote connection when you’re away from home. Cloud-Free Option: By default, eufySecurity devices allow you to store video data locally on the HomeBase’s internal storage. If you prefer to keep the data within your own network and avoid external servers (like those hosted overseas), you can choose not to use any cloud storage services. With this setup, your video data is kept private and secure, and you remain in control of where your footage is stored and accessed. If your concern is about servers in foreign countries, you have the assurance that local storage and access through HomeBase allow you to bypass such connections.
