## What is ACam Live Video (Lite)?

"... a great application for viewing your live webcam feeds over local, Wi-Fi or 3G and EDGE networks..."    --- Macworld

ACam Live Video lets you view live video feed (and optionally, audio) from computer's internal or external webcams directly on your iOS device using your home Wi-Fi networks.

Need to have a baby monitor or a nanny cam?  Set up your computer’s webcam in the baby’s bedroom, and remotely check up on your baby with your iOS device without stepping into the room.

Ever wonder what your cats or dogs are doing when you are not there?  Use ACam Live Video to remotely monitor them, while you are in another room.  Why limiting to your pets; do it to your roommates too.

### 5/5 — This is Great!

*2020-04-09, version 3.11*

I love this!! I use it to monitor my bedroom while I’m in another part of the house.
Thank You!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2017-02-15, version 3.8*

I paid money to get every chance of making this work. IT DOES NOT WORK. I tried to give 0 stars but it makes me leave at least one star.

Simply does not work. No tech support.

### 2/5 — Doesn't work

*2016-05-15, version 3.7*

You can't download the app on Mac and on an iPhone at the same time :(

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2015-03-26, version 3.4.1*

Worked well for a little while but then stopped. Just enough to show the vulnerabilities of the application.

### 4/5 — Good

*2015-02-22, version 3.4.1*

This thing is very good for youtube videos I would recommend it x

### 5/5 — Perfect!!!

*2014-09-02, version 3.4.1*

Exactly what i wanted. Really perfect!

### 3/5 — Not quite what I was hoping for

*2014-07-06, version 3.4.1*

I was happy to find this app but wasn't happy by the fact that the webcam on the laptop is what does the recording, not the ipad. I use my laptop more than my ipad and wishes it was the ipad that does the recording.

### 1/5 — No no no

*2014-04-20, version 3.4*

Spent 3 hours on set up, to hard to get working costs to much. Pass.

### 1/5 — Never worked!!

*2013-11-11, version 3.3*

No matter what I tried, I could not get this program to connect… I saw the video feed on my computer. I saw the connection option on my phone. However, it never let me actually connect the two, thus making the monitor aspect of this program completely useless.

### 1/5 — Mac Users Beware

*2013-08-27, version 3.1*

I used this just for fun, which turned into a big ordeal trying to figure out how to turn the camera off when I'm not actually using the app, finally had to get online to find out how to uninstall the program. The devs are really sneaky, by not fully telling you how it works
