Hi there - can you describe the exact camera you have? Most of the popular camera suppliers have apps that are recommended in the user guide that comes with the camera.
It's tricky to know what app would be suitable because every make of camera is different, so knowing the exact make and model of camera is crucial (unless as I said before there's already an app that's recommended in the user guide that comes with the camera).

Also when you say app do you mean on a smartphone, or are you thinking more about running something on a PC or laptop. Either way, knowing the exact camera is key.

Yes, my Samsung smartphone  There was no info on the camera unfortunately, so I'll get in touch with the supplier and get back to you if ok? Thank you for your replies. |

Hi again - I don't think that app will work as it specifically says it's for Nestera cameras... also the review comments don't look very good either! Have you emailed sales@zopkins.com ? The Zopkins website LINK HERE suggests it's a family run business so it's a bit surprising you haven't heard anything back from them yet. But I would have thought there'd be some instructions that came with your camera, that would describe what the Android app is and where to download it from (maybe a link to the Play Store, or maybe a QR code in the instructions that you need to scan to get the link?). If the instructions don't say what app is required or how to find it, that would seem very strange. |

sorry for the late reply.
I did mail Zopkins, but no reply.
I took out the camera and it has a sticker saying Zopkins, so I assume it must be their own make maybe.
I'll take a photo and post it soon.

I've taken several photos of the cam, but can't see any "attachment" icon in order to post them??  |

Hi - just done a bit of googling and it looks from the pic as if you have a BBCAM202.
The pictures of this camera on the Zopkins website clearly show an instruction booklet.
I'm sure this would contain all the information you need to work out what app to install on your smartphone.
Out of curiosity I have emailed Zopkins on your behalf to ask what app is needed.
If I get any response I'll post it here.
As I say, that instruction booklet would really be the ideal thing to hunt for.

I emailed them lastnight on their behalf aswell Pete, Had an email first thing this morning from a guy called Tom asking what kind of camera it is before they give the app information needed.
So you should get a swift reply, If you don't let me know and i'll send him the picture of the camera thats been posted.

I got a reply from the same guy (Tom) with the instructions attached as a PDF.
I could email it to you if you let me know your email address.
Otherwise I could probably upload it here as screenshot images.
NB it's only 2 pages, so could be the same as what you have already.
If you have the sheet still, give it a thorough read and it might tell you all you need.
The app you need is called "Tapo".
It's described in the instructions on page 2.
