I believe it was up to 10 total to each account you set up for free. So you could have more than ten you would just need to set up a separate account. However i think most people would start to have wireless issue with Bandwidth beyond 10.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have two cameras that I view on the Samsung camera web site and on my iPhone 4S. On both, it lets you register additional cameras. Doesn't look like there is a limit if you are want to view the scene live, but I bet Samsung may put a limit on the amount of video storage you can use on their site (not an issue if you store your video or images on an SD card). On the smartphone, you (1) open the app, (2) log in with your username and password, though these can be "remembered", (3) the next screen lists all your cameras (give each one a different name), (4) select the one you want to view (only one at a time), (5) wait a few seconds depending on the speed of your internet connection, and (6) you camera view come on screen. (7) To go to the next camera, press the "Back" key on top left of the screen, and the list of cameras shows up again. (8) When you want to log out, press the "Back" key, then the "Logout" key. Otherwise it remains live and uses up your data allocation if you are not on free Wifi.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I know it works with 3 for me. The cameras are distinguished by their IP addresses (either ethernet or WIFI) and for remote identification, by a custom name you give them. You can see one at a time using a computer or smartphone. The Samsung website has a good exposition of the way it works.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.There are no limits on how many cameras you can add to an account. It will be limited to the number of IP address you have available.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I don't think there is a limit to how many can be on the same network, but from the way the smartphone app works, I believe you can only see 1 camera at a time. I only bought 1, so I haven't tried to do much with multiple - just conjecture. Hope it helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I will have 5 on the system. You can switch between cameras and the shots are live unless you are in play back mode
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The camera video is live. I don't know what the limit is to adding cameras but I believe you can add as many as you want and they are all added to your app. You just click on the camera you want to see and then you can exit out of that one and switch over to the next view of another camera. I don't know if there is an address switch on the camera.
