A:AnswerHi Eduardo, I'm glad you raised this over to us. Yes, you will need WIFI to get the camera to function. The camera cannot record if it is not connected to WIFI, and videos are encrypted so recorded videos can be viewed in the playback in the Geeni app on the phone only. For more details, please contact us at +1 (888) 232-3143 or email us at [email protected]. You may also visit our support website support.mygeeni.com for live chat support. We are available from Mon-Sun from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM EST.
A:AnswerIf it was "all set up" then you would have a working camera. Theres a few requirements to get the camera set up. #1 ,you must have wifi #2 , the physical device to connect to wifi #downloading the app,that can connect the physical device to your wifi, last but not least ,YOU have to open the app and follow the directions on how to set up your device . And if you see icons within the app,those icons are buttons and when you press them they do stuff. They can be helpful when you use them, even if you are shy and fearful of them.
A:AnswerI don’t believe there is a “light detection” setting which would trigger an alarm/notification. With mine however, if I have the motion detection alerts/notifications on, and remotely turn off that room’s light (no motion other than the light turning off), I will receive an alert to my phone indicating that motion was detected. I hope this helps.
A:AnswerGeenie wifi cams only record video too SD cards or a cloud service, these cannot be connected too a DVR via WiFi or a computer network for monitoring only by phone app.
