CloudEdge

What the app is for

The app is a viewer for a camera system, used to see what the cameras are recording and to get notified when something happens. The listing names two groups of users, families and enterprises, and says it is meant to keep them connected to their property wherever they are.

It suits someone who wants to check on a home or a business from a phone without being in the building. Its main job is the link between the cameras and the phone.

Watching live and recorded video

Real video playing shows the feed from the camera in real time. The listing describes this as the core viewing function.

Playback image checking lets you go back through earlier footage and look at recorded images from a chosen point. That is the function to use when you want to see what happened before an alert or at a specific time.

Motion alerts and time reminders

When the camera detects motion, the app sends an instant push message through the CloudEdge alarm system. The listing presents this as the way to respond quickly with safety measures, such as checking the live feed straight after the alert.

Time and message reminders are a separate scheduling feature. The listing gives few details on how they are set, so the most it supports is keeping timed notices in the same app as the camera alerts.

Sharing video images with others

The app can share video images, so a frame or clip from a camera can be passed on to another person. This is useful when someone else needs to see what a camera captured, such as a family member or a colleague at a business site.
