QuestionIs there a way or part to attach camera to the wall?
Asked 6 years ago by Anthony.
- Answer The stand shown in the picture is easily removable; it just slides out. The actual USB flat cord is housed in a channel just under that which also slides in/out. So with the bracket removed, a little double stick tape/foam or velcro is all that is necessary to mount it. In fact, the body is angled so you could "stick it" in the wall corner, too. Or flat, whatever.

Asked 5 years ago by Louis.

Asked 5 years ago by LC.
- Answer The camera requires WIFI to connect to the base. The camera is set up via the APP using a QR code which allows you to view the video using the local WIFI network in your home that is also connected to your Base. When connected, your camera can be viewed remotely via the APP using your mobile phone.

QuestionCan the camera zoom remotely and if so, what zoom power?
Asked 5 years ago by swiss.
- Answer No zoom for this particular camera. You can enlarge the image from the phone app, but it's not an actual zoom. Enlarging the image makes it grainy.
