While Alfred is a solid choice, keep in mind it's not the only choice. If you're using an Android device, you have those options and you can also enable continuous focus, have Alfred automatically reopen if the phone reboots, set a resolution and enable a passcode lock.įrom your new phone, you can change a few more settings, such as turning notifications on or off, setting a camera or viewer name, adding other people to your Trust Circle (granting other people access to your video feeds), removing a camera, checking how many times a camera has disconnected, setting motion detection sensitivity and enabling a low-light filter on cameras. On iOS, you can only enable motion detection, choose between the front and rear cameras and enable or disable audio. Alfred has simplified the camera options to only include a few settings. Once both phones are signed in to Alfred, you're pretty much done with the setup. And make sure to sign in to the same Google account.
